The official german service variant has been changed to only be the 9 antidrone missle launcher.
Besides that i cant speak for the efffectivness differences of stingers and the chinese one
i feel yeah, i would have wanted sth with enough range to beat out KH38MT, if we only get IRIS-T SLS, thats only enough to intercept armament. players will adept and play more bvr A2G easy as that
I like the fact we are getting more SPAA, however im not sure what is their deal. SLS will come to SWE and maybe GER. Both of them use VT1, meaning SLS does not help with long range AtG, only creates a no-fly bubble within like 8km (all praise Gaijin missile modeling).
Depending on what version of Chinese SPAA we get, its either a crippled top dog (i do not expect DL), or something boring around 10.0 that will not help with long range AtG once again.
Bored? We can go and grind vehicles to an inch of spading each modification tier, so you can finish all the modifications when you start researching the news things and get massive RP boosts : )
Yes, Italy Israel and Japan already have the best SPAA in the game, so they dont need new ones. UK and US are close behind, so they might skip them too.
Yea, 4 ready to fire and 4 more with a box. Tbh thats not enough for current games, where as an SPAA you have to deal with not only planes taking 90% of enemy team, but also ~4 missiles each of them unleashed at you.
