the SA one that is 20km is a multi vic system, Skysabre the launcher can work by itself but is 25km and is probably to much for gaijin, not to mention since it doesnt have a radar it would need the ability to use LOAL

Me too, especially German 380 mm would be not super good in penetration, which would be just little better than British 381 mm)

wdym? Sky sabre can do DL just fine by itself. DL is provided by the mast with a dome on the launcher, not the radar.
E/O can provide all the needed data, tho you are limited in amout of targets you can DL the missiels at.

oh I assumed it would need a radar for the missiles to lock on before the launch, fair enough then
tbf I fully expect gaijin to limit it to one missile at a time to its the same as SACLOS sams
I would not be surprised. Especially considering that proving the tracker multi-track will be quite a challange, that is untill they release the official designation of the E/O.

I am curious if we will get the skysabre before multi vic launchers as it can act as a single unit just not as effective
impossible, you are just too hurry, most of the vehicles are able to operate as single unit.
and skysabre has a problem, not sure it can operate without radar, it has DL, but no fire control radar, it still needs something to provide fire control information.
usually things like BUK has its own fire control radar to operate
EX has better maneuverability than CX?
It has a E/O (the smaller mast)

what’s E/O?
Electro optical sensor. Basically a sight

I disagree considering they can add plenty of equivalent SPAA to other nations.
If you have issues with CAS finally facing retaliation, I’ll have to heartily disagree. If worst comes to worst, Gaijin can add ARMs and Man-in-the-Loop.
That’s what the COPIUM emote was for
I sincerely wish Germany would produce a Skyranger 30/35 with IRIS-Ts strapped to it instead of just anti-drone missiles.
that’s enough, like Type 81.
but still not a very good idea without radar vehicle imo
yes they could but they would be jumping over a LOT of other systems to do that
I mean I still want CAS to be viable with a 40km range tho all CAS will be dead in the water since every map is smaller then 40km from the battlefield to the broder of the map
Ofc lack of radar cuts its capability greately, but the E/O is there if needed.

Don’t get me wrong, I love to play CAS, but I hate being on the receiving end of it as well.
I would much rather it take more wherewithal to play CAS than it currently does. Right now it’s just a click-and-point adventure, while most SPAA struggles.
40km ranges also allow for, like I said, the addition of MitL and ARMs, which would make CAS more dynamic than just doming defenseless players in tanks. Forcing CAS to focus on doing SEAD first at least adds another barrier between tanks and CAS.
Gaijin could also force planes to start on the runway, and/or spawn points could be moved back quite a bit.
