I see a lot of changed to the Tan-SAM, so before I hop on the dev server - did they make the IR Type 81 better as well? All it needs to get is ability to launch without IR lock and I’d be absolutely happy.
No changes that I found
Yeah, even if not well known or relevant globally, the C-36 of coure is very iconic for Switzerland, and is - among the few combat aircraft Switzerland designed and used - certainly the most important one.
I’d actually would have loved to see them make the most numerous variant C-3603 (which I find also looks better), but am very happy and excited about the C-3604, of course!
During WW2 my granddad worked a lot on the C-36’s and always talked about them in admiration, so the type of course is especially dear to me…

Is the Tan-SAM kai radar vehicle supposed to just stop spinning the radar when turned off? It used to fold down in the previous versions.
As an Englishman I too love the thing through it’s uniqueness and history in which I’ll picking this baby up

Is the devserver open again?
yes
So propably no Update this week
I think it might be work in progress, the animation probably needs changing because they fixed the model for the supports.
Also another weird thing, the 110° scan physically moves the radar when it should be electronically scanning, but not actually move in this mode.

Devs closes on Wednesday if it doesn’t extend so probably early next week unlikely this week
Good Afternoon @Smin1080p_WT , Hope you’re well.
I was wondering if you knew, if the dev’s had any plans to give Spyder an all black GE camouflage (as was done with Black Night), as like BN, that’s the only scheme we’ve seen it in IRL :
Cheers

No not really. This is quite a bit worse because of what it represents. Here we were, finally getting equal or competitive SPAAs to go against the two years the Pantsir was allowed to dominate. Only to get the rug pulled from under us.
With the addition of the Z-10A and Z-10ME can we pretty please have a properly modeled cockpit 👉👈
Also @Smin1080p_WT can we expect a devblog on these?

I get the new AA’s aren’t in the state many had hoped (and frankly what was needed of them), but i still think it’s a better update overall than Hornets Sting.
The only real notable things in the last one were Hornet and Su30, the former of which was arguably added very belatedly, and the latter of which just exacerbated a pre-existing balance crisis in ground battles.
This update offers a lot more to be excited about - for a lot more countries than the last.
I gave up hope of that ever coming ngl.
Anyone got any idea if Gaijin plans on adding IOG + DL or LOAL to the IR Type 81 C? The missile can’t utilize it’s max range in the state it is now, needing a full IR lock to launch despite being slaved to the radar.

Should be able to as long as you have sources to back it up.
This is an understatement. I can’t speak about the changed SLM as I haven’t seen the missile performance in action yet, but the Derby-SR and 120C-7 (previously C-5) seemed incredibly easy to counter for cas. These 2 and old SLM are (or were in the case of SLM) honestly just sad.
Only reason the Spyder will do well is because no matter how sad it is, it will still be an upgrade over the Chaparral.
