Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

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)

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!

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.

Even worse, the F-86D with only rockets

Its poor at shooting down aircraft and ordinance.
1st gen thermals and is missing its TWS system.
I prefer the Stormer

I wish i didn’t just fight KH-38MT lol, id love to have those types of matches. I think i need to feed the snail to get those types of matches.

Seriously past 10km its not gonna hut anything as the missiles start to swing uncontrollably at a target flying in a straight line.

If we are going on fighting fixed wing CAS, then Type 81 is better than ADATS

If we are going on fighting helis then ADATS is better.

The ability for the Type 81 to pop out of cover, fire a automated weapon and then get back into cover beats out the 1 ish km of extra range but having to sit still like a lemon guiding it and the ADATS missile is easy to beat kinematically

Type 81 is a guaranteed kill if you enter its engagement envelope.
The things like a “Super Strela”

Me flying my Mig 27 within 3km and the type 81 missing because im too close for it. Seriously when people learn to bait the missile one direction the Type 81 becomes food the closer you get.

You have to see it and you get no warnings

Why is Flakrakrad better than Adats? You have a better radar with more scan angle and range, you don’t have to reload your missiles, and you have a gun that can be used to defend yourself against close planes

I wish that was true, reality is different, even Drones (the attack drones, not scout) are often impossible to lock.

VT1 is a superior missile

Honestly i think ive died like 2 times total to type 81, ive killed about a dozen with my 10.0 Su-25 so i cant say they are that difficult lol.

I also played the Type 81 and its pretty meh imo, i dont know how it goes up lol
