Since the multivehicle SPAA already kinda breaks logic in a sense it spawns close enough to the battle to be threatened by tanks, I dont see a reason why some creative liberty should be denied.
For example with SLM, germany plans to accquire Skyranger 30 on Boxer chasis.
While Skyranger 30 deserves to be a standalone vehicle, I can see similiar situation with japanese type 81 - it exists both as standalone unit and part of the complet.
Now, while Boxer is not part of the SLM battery, I dont see it as much of a stretch for the vehicles sharing some targeting data through data link. It would work just as the deployable launching unit, player would have to pick between second launcher or Skyranger, giving the gameplay further depth.
Further, I could see it being a unlockable modification of the SLM itself, similiar to I-TOWs for begleit or mine protection for 2A7V.
Lastly, since the vehicle XP would be mainly coming from SLM, there would be zero concerns for effectivity of skyranger itself against ground units, meaning it could be solely limited to the anti-air ammo.

spaa and cas are too extreme in terms of confrontation. Either spaa clears the sky or cas clears the ground.More Pantsir s1 should be issued instead of regional air defense
However it seems pantsir might prove incapable of the level of defense other modern systems can and do provide.
I actually thought about that, so there’s, for example, this thing.
I’m pretty sure it can integrate in the system and well, I think it’s even the same truck as IRIS-T.
Would work pretty good as a munition interceptor.

Yep. Ive read about germany integrating their TRML4D as well as SPEXER with the Skyranger/skyguard gun systems.

Ive also remembered the german HFLaAFSyS with the Ozelot. The shorter ranged stinger would help a lot to close the gap although interception of munitions will still be a major concern.
But it can intercept all missiles. It is unreasonable that a vehicle with 90 points can directly eliminate an aircraft with 800 points.
Is it reasonable for 800 points aircraft to have 6 free tank kills 200 points each?

We can adjust the system in such a way that if the player wants to rbing the gun systems as well, then it can cost an extra 50 SP.
Missiles are not impossible to intercept，Intercepting missiles is also a mission of the AA。
They are near impossible to intercept in game currently.
Think about it, if mumitions are intercepted more easily, players will adapt and maps will adapt to allow for more skilled gameplay.
Just as an airplane needs different points to carry different missiles
It can be intercepted. Advanced AA can do it easily.At present，The only one that is hard to intercept is the kh38.
That is in theory. In many cases missiles will miss, fail to trigger or trigger and do no damage to the intercepted missiles. Ofc it works, but not always.

Depends on the range as well as ping. Plus certain munitions dont get destroyed when u hit them with a missile.
That’s a stretch…
800 - 900 SP is the average.
He does nothing malicious by stating the lower limit in this specific scenario.
No it’s not, only if you use stuff without f&f you get below 900 SP and you will be far less effective.
