Major Update "Leviathans" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

The Self Propelled Anti-Aircraft systems intended for release in the next patch of War Thunder are likely underperforming.

There are still many unrealistic expectations held by many players of War Thunder about just how those Anti-Aircraft systems will perform in game.

I expect that Gaijin Entertainment will improve the realism of those Anti-Aircraft systems, by the time the next major update for War Thunder has been available to the public for 1 month.

打算在《战争雷霆》下一个补丁中发布的自推进防空系统很可能表现不佳。

许多《战争雷霆》玩家对这些防空系统在游戏中的表现仍抱有许多不切实际的期望。

我希望在《战争雷霆》的下一次重大更新向公众开放 1 个月后,Gaijin Entertainment 将提高这些防空系统的逼真度。

I don’t care about these things
I only know that 12 KH38 makes the other 9 teams worthless

Pretty sure the design of the Pantsirs missile is going to make it inherently faster over range compared to the SLM

Hello again @Smin1080p_WT, just wanted to make sure that this message wasn’t lost in the sea of other messages. A nudge would be much appreciated as the conversation is locked and it’s not possible to add additional information currently, but I can tell you right now from checking it again that the bug is the exact same as it has been for years.

So, can I get those decal on deck if I buy Z20 now?

They are really going ham on sales this year lol

Drag is lower, but inertia is also lower (a lot). Hence, the loss in velocity in the pantsir SAM is higher than the SLM.

I can only imagine how the 57E6M will preform, it’s a kinetic hit-to-kill variant.

That Viper Zero is a pre order title is disappointing.

Yeah the state of the new SAMs is incredibly disappointing, easily the biggest let down of this update and if the rumors are true than they wont be fixed until SEAD gets added so i guess we will have to wait until December to see any real changes because i dont see SEAD coming before than.

That’s why it’s a shorter range missile.

It’s tiny with a huge booster and a small sustainer to sustain a high speed for its intended range

Why is it disappointing?

Mig-29 Sniper is available for pre-order?

People want everything for free

Not yet.

But people want everything for free though.

That chart is a little suspect, it’s missing almost half of the updates in that specific timeframe.

Thats… an over statement.

Thsts where ur wrong lol.
Smaller projectiles are affected more by drag because they have less inertia.
The sustainer, (i admit im not sure which part of the missile it is in) does not sustain a high speed for long but rather a high speed up to around 10km which is the stated irl maximum engagement height of the pantsir’s 20km ranged missiles.
10km altitude means it maintains an interception worthy energy state up to that point.
It stands to reason that after 10km either vertically or horizontally, the sustainer will have died out a while ago or the remaining projectile will be flying only on inertia and momentum.

Stupid me thought I could use ChatGPT to do such a simple task as counting, but apparently not.

The chart below (which I believe is yours) shows the release date trend to be thursday, overwhelmingly.
