Side note. I think the ADATS could be 11.3 simply because its labeled as an SPG and has significantly inferior missiles AT wise than even 8.7 and 9.7 russian ATGM carries who have 800-1200mm tandem pen and full mega uber hull down.
The ADATs is a slow brick bus and super tall
Only gets 8 rounds of ammo
Has no depression
And only a 10km range
And mislabeled as an SPG so its spawn cost is so high you cant take it out if youre being bullied by CAS or spawn campers anyways
If they want to keep it at 11.7, the max BR, and want to pretend its an SPG first, it ought to get APFSDS
Id rather have a real SPAA at 11.7 with a 70sp spawn cost which has a 15km no escape zone according to Thales

if that is historically accurate, then yes, it absolutely should get apfsds.
I think US can get some SPAAs from other nations such as turkey
Don’t forget to mention that you have to guide it manually too

There’s still plenty of domestic options, like the Avenger brought up ITT (it was also trialed with Starstreaks if you want a more anti-Helicopter jeep), the M6 Linebacker and M113 with Crotale also sounded neat.
All top tier SPAA is manually guided, even Tor M1 and Pantsir only have assisted guidance which is more of a hinderance when things start to aggressively dodge.
Which really is a failure at properly making a game feature.
I dont want anymore updates of “new toys”, even in 2017 gaijin needed to stop and fix what they had. We need like 6 months of balancing and bug fix updates

I know but most of them aren’t toptier material. Stingers or AIM-9s aren’t enough for toptier. Even the SLARAAM won’t be good enough since it requires separate radar and control vehicles.
So US needs some SPAAs from other nations.
The US basicly stopped making SPAAs cause they have such a massive force of airplanes. What they should add is the AGM-88 HARM, to let us wreck all the pantsirs that dont turn their radars off…
Gaijin have said before that there is very little data on how HARMs would perform against such a relatively small radar
Well there is still the Liberty I with Crotale.
Which is a M113 with a 6 pack of Roland VT-1 missiles.

That would fit snugly between the M42 and the M163.
Let the Russians take TOR away. China doesn’t need this thing, and TOR performs poorly in the game, even worse than Tunguska

I hope this is sarcastic
People posting missile systems missing the point that US hasn’t got any SPAA at 4.7, 5.0, 5.3, 5.7 6.0, 6.3, 6.7 7.0 and 7.3 XD but yes another sam system would be nice lol.

No the US needs a better top tier spaa.
It also needs a mid-tier spaa, but as far as spaa gaps go the US one is not the worst.

Really? You don’t think the massive mid tier gap where the majority of players grind is more important lol, the ADATs is extremely capable in comparison to anyone using the roland systems.
Afaik VT-1 (aka Crotale NG iirc) remains one of a few missiles capable of dealing with high altitude fast targets. And afaik ADATs was not one among them. Also ADATs has TD spawn cost.
Where did i place top tier or mid tier US spaa above one another? I dont have any strong feelings about which is more important.

Some people will literally argue over f**k all lmao
Yes, people will make up things you havent said and then try to start an argument over it.
