while not being blocked by too much terrain
i can imagine that it will be interesting to find good spots for the radar

because they probably want to test the multi vehicle mechanic first before adding it to everyone
and i think the IRIS-T SLM is alot fairer than giving the US the Patriot or Russia the S300
not really lmao a fairer option would have been CAMM for the UK and Italy as its only 25km far more balanced then 40km
Is 40km SLM’s minimum?
Does it not have a missile with less range than this it could be limited to?
40km is max range
There’s been work done on Ukrainian SLM vehicles to be able to carry SLS containers as well, but that’s an Ukraine specific mod.
I don’t know if it ever did, but i think it at least can, use the IRIS-T missiles (same as the SLS) that have a max at 20km.

well that highly depends on how gaijin implements it
and iam saying it is fairer than the patriot or s300 would be, not that it is the best option
but then again it is better for gaijin to test multi vehicle AAs in nations with weaker CAS eg. Britain Germany Italy China
the only thing less then 40km is 12km with the SLS and the SLM cant use that missile
I think you’ve misunderstood my question or I’ve asked it poorly with my use of the word minimum.
What I’m saying is, if the guy I replied to felt 40km is too long, I’m asking if there is another, shorter range missile it could get instead ?
(Sort of like how a Spyder could be limited to Python if it were felt Derby’s had too much range).
Is this German system even like that where it has multiple options? Or is just a one missile system?
SLM is alot bigger than the standart IRIS-T
and when looking at the size 40km seem not too far fetched
I always wondered if SLM also uses Thrust Vectoring, but it doesn’t seem to be the case.
they have tied 2nd or 3rd best SPAA in the game, also both the UK and Italy are in a worse state for SPAA then germany, there is no logical choice that the SLM was added before CAMM, CAMM could go to 2 nations SLM is only for germany and only has a 40km missile
it is still a TVC missile, the name means:
Infra Red Imaging System – Tail/Thrust Vector Controlled, Surface Launched Medium Range

Doesn’t CAMM have an AIO option with the E/O mast? So it wouldn’t need to be a multi-vehicle endeavor anyway.
gaijin will probably just give everyone the patriot so they will just not bother with anything else
that dosent matter when there is going to be a new best one and i said weaker CAS not AA
You can keep overrating the TOR as much as you want, but that doesn’t suddenly make it second best.
Hell third best is already a stretch imo.
it is 1st place for being the coolest AA
you cant beat the vertically launched missiles

Yeah it looks and sounds dope, unfortunately it’s just super annoying to use.

kinda the E/O mast allows the launcher to us its 2 way DL it just wont have a radar to spot targets
