Major Update "Spearhead" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

So the whole radar panel thing is a gimmick and doesn’t do anything, and the launcher vehicles providing DL can’t operate on their own?

Yeah I’m going back to 8.3, at least SPAAs find some use there.

Actually no, but I just didn’t picture 3 at once.

Especially the questionable chinese one.

SLM does not have the chirp (i just checked)

You have to, in order:
Find a target using the radar, and keep it in radar fov.
Switch to launcher
Lock the target using optics, and stay in the launcher so the lock does not break
Launch the missile.

If the radar loses the target, you wont be able to fire, and there wont be no datalink.

Yup, and I don’t even think Freccia is OP. It’s simply good, and other spike IFVs are just extremely sad.

You wanna trade then?

Why trade, if you can have both?

In other words, you need to keep helicopters in sight (but they just land) only to use ARH SPAAs like a SACLOS.

Perfect.

Me and @Pheonix_RX01 trying to out-do the British and turn rumour round up into “Sweden suffers”

Why make it even worse gaijin would just remove the Giraffe radar on the Elde then you’re stuck with 2 useless launchers lol. Still have more viable range in my ADATS lmao

tbf wouldnt be the first time, nothing wrong with try to make sure it doesnt happen again (its also not a good look when 3 other trees are getting it 2 of which have 2 different types of FnF missiles on helis already and the 2nd largest operator out side of the US of the AH-64E is no where to be seen)

They have 3 Leos apollo, they can’t suffer anywhere else they could suffer is redundant because they have 3 leos with armor

Everyone knows Sweden players only play top tier, nothing else exists

Need to give them 2-3 years to C&P the RWR over from the AH Mk1

While i still remeber it.
@Smin1080p_WT quick question
Like a year or 2 ago, reporting radars to have more than 2 states, in Sky sabre case it will be Folded, 9m elevation and 12m elevation, was not acceptable.

Has this changed, or is On/Off only still a thing?

Its still on / off im afriad. No in-between state.

Thanks.

How exactly does jumping to conclusions after we have repeatedly said “not everything is ready yet, please stay tuned” help to “try to make sure it doesnt happen again”?

Some people seem to have already locked in and full commited before we are even close.

All I care is that this vehicle comes into the game as
A: Functional
B: Realistic
C: At an alright BR

Some of these, if not all 3 of these, are seemingly dropped from the requirements sometimes

its obvious we are getting more AH-64E why not just confirm we are getting on for the UK saying

does nothing to help but leave the possibility we wont get one this patch, unless it is actually confirmed its hard to trust it

I just want a cloud rework, it is so bad rn, clouds are not in the same exact position for all players, high alt maps often have clouds on deck making mulitpath deadly to attempt and the different height of clouds for planes and ground vehicles just makes it even more of a mess
