considering it only seems to work from the front yeah its a joke of an APS
not surprised, i rlly wanted to get it, then i saw the APS it had and that was a big turn away for me
The strike shield is decent.
Im also interested in if the strike shield should add some higher armour values to the hull, because as i can see right now it doesnt. The skirts cant be made out of empty styrofoam, can they?
im not entirely sure?, its not something i can say i can give a true answer on tbh
been crap for years now lol.
and still no fix
It used to be even worse. So many times the intercepted missile would still somehow take out your track, transmission, engine or multiple of those in the past.
idk how they managed to make it so it can only intercept ATGMs from the front on the CRV but it doesnt surprise me at this point lol
That is also with how they have modelled tandem charges iirc. Could also be due to the explosive charge of the ATGMs and how far away from the vehicle they were intercepted
There Is no source, he just made It up
For the sake of balance and prevent controversy, i expect gaijin to give similar ecm oerformance via pod. However overall performance may vary by the number of pods, ECM arrays and the array quality
will the type and/or vehicles be known in the next BP?
later this week probs
Should be getting the blogs for the next BP towards the end of this week since the BP ends next Wednesday.
Doubt it
With current state of BP gaijin usually post devblog about main reward a day or two before the start of the new season
So…I guess Monday for the first BP news
Yeah and I also wonder whether vehicles known to have integrated ECMs will have those, since not sacrificing missiles and drag with ECM is quite nice.
Prediction for ecm: ECM performance will depend on
- If it has 360 coverage
For example F-35 doesn’t have 360 coverage, no egress capability while some other aircraft do

- If it has AESA jamming or not
Lord Gaijin, please let me spoof the enemy 2000lb JDAM ER into their spawn…
I wonder who gets the kill/teamkill if a jammed/spoofed GNSS guided bomb lands on an unintended target.
“some other aircraft” = Every Eurocanard
generally ECM is such a Comlex topic that tbh we really can come up with as many thoughts as we like, in the end we must expect a Simplified addition and that Meta will be very dependant on how exactly Gaijin does that
it’s the same as Multipathing and Seeker types for S/ARH missiles
gonna be honest there is no way they make ECM accurate for the simple fact warthunder just isnt large enough scale for it (for example a single growler could jam every radar on an enemy team in GRB because of how small the maps are compared to IRL)
