I fully expect the UK to go with out an upgrade as the CAMM is not used by everyone else and gaijin seems to rarely give the UK a top tier thing that they need and is also good that no one else can get
Gaijin will give it 5km front aspect lock range, a 3km upgrade from the Aim9M
Id still consider the Gripen C as usable as CAP (certainly more usable than say Tornado F3 vs Mig-29s we have at 11.7 for example)
But purely looking at SPAA, ITO is miles ahead of the ADATSs, Imp, Type 81 and Otomatic
Yeah… probably
There will of course be aircraft too, including a rather cool helicopter for the USA and a jet for Japan.
Just went and copied it lol
the ITO even if SPAA is kinda meh is still the second best or 3rd best SPAA in the game I dont think sweden should be the focus if there are a limited number of SPAAs coming
I don’t consider the ITO or any SPAA aside from the Pantsir as usable. I dont bother with SPAA anymore for my lineups because they are just inferior to the CAS we have. Adats is the only vehicle i still use because i can use it as a US BMP-2M when it comes to haveing 8 ready to use AT missiles.
yea they totally could use the same seeker for every new 5gen IR missile changing some numbers there and there to make them perform a little bit different from each other talking about speed, accel, drag you know…
Spectral flares would be the counter.
Dont expect them to function anywhere near realistic
the ranking is like this from worst to best
Flakrad, TOR, Adats, ITO---------------------Panstir
I’m gonna be real i haven’t touched SPAA outside of my Adats (for AT purposes) for ground because they just aren’t viable for the most part. Why bring a worthless SL piñata when i can get another fighter which has a greater chance to hurt my enemy, especially FnF helicopters are yet another problem for SPAA.
LMAO putting the ADATS above TOR and Flakrad is a joke the ADATS is the worst SACLOS SPAA at top tier the only thing it has is the ability to kill tanks
Adats is good
Its more like
Worst to best
Imp (Israel)
Otomatic (italy)
ADATS (UK)
ADATS (US)
Type 81 (Japan)
Flakrad (Germany)
ITO (France and Sweden)
HQ17 (china)
Pantsir (Soviets)
Ive been doing pretty well with SPAA at top tier I can normally manage 2 maybe 3 plane with my ADATS
They mentioned a jet for Japan, so other than the PS-1 with that boundary layer control jet, we could also get this:
Mixed propulsion, and should slot well after the G8N1!
Fixed.
japanese T-33
Anyways, watch how Gaijin will give Russia Panstir S1M this update
Gripen is again stuck being our only effective CAP/CAS. F-18 is too slow, no K band, and the Gripen is just too limited to effectively multirole. Its a poor excuse for a selection of aircraft, i ignore the F-18 in place of the AJS at 13.0 as at least i can have one somewhat competent CAP aircraft and not some useless mach 1.0 jet placed at the same BR as its counterpart 2 decades newer.
