I hope they would at least give these nations a new SAM system this update, what worries me is if they will be on a similar level. The Chinese one already seems to be much more capable than the Swedish new SPAA.
Not sure if I would laugh or cry if Israel wasn’t one of the first nations to get a new AA.
I mean neither can the Type 81 in game really. It really doesn’t like hitting moving targets beyond 7-8km.
I’m really hopeful that they’ll add the SLAMRAAM for the USA
It can also use the AIM-120B, but the AMRAAMs in the image above are AIM-120C-8s iirc. Also, of course, it has 2x AIM-9Xs for close range targets.
Also there are better IRIS-T SL variants with longer range missiles that we can get besides the SLS
Oh yeah there’s also a Boxer with IRIS-Ts, although it’s just a concept at the moment afaik
On that note, i need to point out that everyone assumed it is type 625E, but it might be just 625
Worse missiles. 10km max range.
the FB-10 is already in datamine, but not 10A, this is strange, but I think it’s more possible to have 625E
Doesn’t this assumption come from the 625E’s missiles being found in the files a couple months back?
10A is the E missile
So if FB-10 was found, it would point to 625
I must have missed that.
Oh I’m not stating that as fact, I was inquiring lol. Could have worded that comment better.
I just recall there being lots of hype / talk about 625E before the previous major because it had a missile asset in the files - but I’m not sure if that missile was exclusive the E or not
FB-10 is only used by this
and actually, 625 system is modular.
25mm PLA version also compatible FB-10A, which has longer barrel than 30mm version(usually called 625E)
I just checked the github, 10 was datamined, but was removed. 10A is in MWT tho
exclusive to this
Main problem is that the Swedish only seem to use the SLS version, which is why I fear Gaijin adding new SPAA with big gaps in capabilities between nations.
Like the RBS 98 seems like a sidegrade at best to the ItO.
EDIT: then again I could see Gaijin pulling a “if it can fire SLS it can theoretically fire SLM, so we give the SLM version to Sweden” or something if that is even possible. They do like to handhold top tier Sweden ground afterall.
the difference is too big, it’s possible to nerf FB-10A to FB-10 “for balance”, but SLS to SLM is unlikely
after all, why it must be top
This one uses LOAL, the cap provides a drag reduction and the missile is guided via DL GPS
it then uses the IR seeker to intercept the target.
I think the FB-10A is fine as it is, it is pretty close to the Pantsir in terms of range. We don’t need more 12km range CAS fodder, we need SPAA at top tier with actual range.
Carries the best Russian missiles with an incredible Radar and the best strike fighter in the game…Bro you trippin
Are those Derbys? That could be an interesting SAM and the missiles are in game. Although range will be the same 8-15km of Pantsir so wont stop CAS.
Although riple firing them would be cool
Which one are those? R-77? R-73? R-27ER?
However I do agree, it can’t really be buffed without moving to at least 13.7.
R-27ER/R-73 and the base model R-77 is also very good at the ranges in ground battles.
Su-34 is not a jet that needs a hand. Su-34M will also have EW/ECM to make it even better
