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.
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.
I dont see the need to add whole need jets just to finally give Su-34 it Khibini ECM pods (especially since it visual model still bugs-out with them equipped in the hanger)
That’s for Gaijin to decide.
Su-34M with ECM pods, better thermals, R-74 and some new ground attack weapons and additional hard points players will grind for it.
Then we could see a Su-32 as a premium/event vehicle.
In air RB it is basically useless. The radar just lets you see everything you can’t hit and everything that will hit you.
Ground rb, not sure how Gaijin will fix the issue of strike aircraft. Strike aircraft with good flight performance have a much more stable place in the meta than those which rely on their kit.
You could put the Su-34 at 40.7 and it wouldn’t change that it shoots the same targets and is attacked by the same SPAA, so not sure what Gaijin will do to fix it.
