Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

People do it with A6s, Jags, Super Entendards, etc

And I was referring to giving the SMT a T-pod

Having a 30+km missile as well as good optics would be absurd when everyone else gets 10/12km range SPAA

Targets dont really render after 15~km

F16 and Mirage using nations don’t have 2x the range on their SPAAs

I thought they fixed that?

Eh not really

The spaa that may have long range except the missile becomes complete garbage tier past 8 km and can only hit afk players stop coping about pantsir

You can literally kill it with any top tier cas easily by just not being retarded afk person who files straight

One problem: We are talking about a)two missiles compared, for example, to the 6 Mavericks of the F-16 and b)TV seekers can’t track after 8km.

PGMs (present on the Tornado and Mirage 2000) have a theoretical range 50km and i don’t see Mirages/Tornados stomping.

Not really. 30km range means it can fly 30km and self destruct. It’s lock range for moving target is 12km in data mine, and in game, it usually need less than 10km to lock on a tank target.
otherwise, it will lock on ground.

Eh, a top tier premium couldn’t hurt to help the top tier grind, but yeah, even then top tiers in a abysmal state…
Hopefully we’ll get; barrel launched Atgm, ifv s and other light vehicles (praying for namer ifv), sub tree spas or spyder, and some Merkava armor fixes, it’s so fricken unrealistically weak…

At least they HAVE an spaa that can shoot past 12km. Odds are the enemy jet is looking thru the missile sight anyway.

Hell my nation’s top SPAA isn’t even an SPAA its a tank destroyer and costs 3-4x as much to spawn while still having doodoo range

Still outranges my 11.7 SPAA

(To be clear, I don’t have a problem with Russia getting better CAS, I just expect everyone else to have a competitive way to counter it. No, CAP is not competitive if it costs 500SP to spawn, same with ADATS being a tank destroyer)

Luckly, with a T-220 pod, it’s able to carry 4 kh-25ml, or 2 kh29 and 2 kh25, not much, but enough.
and SU-24M2 is like a bigger mig-27k with up to 3 kh29 and 2 kh25, and better fly quality.

Spawn a jet with overpowered aim 9m here goes your anti air not gajin fault that NATO countries did not invest in those kind of anti airs

PGM is 12km too, and AGM-65D even 20km, so not a big problem.

That is a pity, I agree, some need to be do to get Italy a new SPAA.

The YaK-131 features a much more modern cockpit giving the pilot more information (which is good for simulator players like myself), the plane itself is significantly more manoeuvrable which should help a lot in both ground realistic and air realistic and the payload of both aircraft should be identical in many regards (besides how much it can actually carry).

On top of that the YaK-131 features the same Kopyo radar found on the SU-39 and with my experience with said radar I would be pretty happy to use this in-game. And last but not least this thing is tiny and should be pretty hard to hit (like the AMX International)

I still see the YaK-131 being superior but that’s my personal view and that could be different with yours

I’ve used the SU-25K and SU-39 in CAS many times before and my biggest issue is how fat it is

Somewhat off-topic respsonses

They did, they just happened to use multiple vehicles because NATO invested in datalinks

Neither of those are Russian, my only complaint is that the KH outranges most NATO SPAA with the exception of the VT-1. Pantsir has a max range equal to the 64D’s tracking range. (Before you say it can’t hit at that range neither can VT-1)

I meant ADATS but yeah the OtO is pretty atrocious too

See post above, also do you know what the flare button does? CAS is high alt literally just R-27ER them they can’t dodge it.

You will never know that 9m is coming and random flares won’t work while you will know 27er is coming

YAK-130/131 would fit in 10.3, like AMX and Jaguar, so there is no comparison between them.

10.3 with a generation 2+ thermal imager and R-73Es? Big no for 10.3 but 11.0 sure.

Is there an aircraft within 4km of me? Okay then an AIM-9M is coming. You can’t dodge an R-27ER from 8km at altitude either, its just that you can’t see one and you can’t do anything about the other.
