Yeah, but that still means it probably has the energy to engage at target that isnt evading hard out to 30 or so km and more than likely can engage a maneuvering target at 20km
hardly
take the example of Hermes-a, Russian prototype missile, basically a 96YA6 with a bigger warhead(even worse energy), has a range of 100km, but 95YA6 only has 18km for air targets(in game, it can hardly follow anything after 10 or 12 km).
I mean, game situation is much different from irl, so don’t except too much.
irl this range is meaningful, for intercepting ammo, drone or other similar things. and IRL plane are also not so “maneuverable” than in game.
and I fully get that, the reason we want SPEAR 3 isnt to push the game massively forward we are asking for it in an entirely GPS mode which it can do, so the EFTs have a weapon similar to the GBU39
