Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

yes, battery, ballistic management, etc
max range is not a very reliable data, celling is better. you can clam a range as long as you can get there, gliding or any other way.
meanwhile celling is more strict, you can’t get there if without enough energy.
not saying celling is strictly correct, it’s also affected by things like test environment or test targets. But I can say, SLM should be much better in energy level than 03 and Derby ER, and is really a longer range SPAA.

SLS is weird in that regard as well, there’s stated ceilings of 5, 6 and 8km.

Lmao wot. Thats actuallly mad as hell. Howd he do that

It’s probably a forum bug that defaults him back to 1970 but how can he post then?
If i don’t play 3 matches for a week i can’t post…

Thats quite normal. EIther different blocks, or as time passed released information changed. That happens all the time.

Yeah, missiles are much bigger which allow to have more fuel and maybe more powerful engines. Derbys wouldn’t do much on the Spyder AiO. They do have a Spyder XR and ultimately David’s Sling if I’m not wrong.

well as I said

Very much doubt that the ceiling of the Type 03 is only just 10km, I wouldn’t trust info from sites with no sources for it, and 50km doesn’t seem accurate either. It was explained at the 59th anniversary commemoration of the Shimoshizu Garrison in 2014 that it would be possible to fire at aircraft above Yokohama and Mount Tsukuba from Shimoshizu, and based on reports of firing tests in the United States, it is believed that the range is more than 60 km.

max range differs depends on test environment, usually missile can fly longer.

Usually stuff like this happens when the value shifts (somehow) to an illegal value like -99 etc. Which the system autocorrects to the lowest legal value. In this case it may be 1970 lol

Well those are numbers gajin doesnt want to add then propably and wont come

Hey I’ll be honest, my microwave computer just stops rendering past 12 km but well, not like I’m gonna do much with the chaparral at those ranges.

honestly 10km celling is too low for it, considering 03 is a quite huge missile. unless they use sushi propellant

They use a mix of soy sauce and wasabi to launch the missile.

Spoiler

It’s a joke guys, hope it doesn’t offend anyone
