They will probably go with this config:

Instead of this:

With how bad the Spyder AiO is ingame (part chassis, part missile problem ofc).

Please spoiler long lists of images.

The one in the first picture is HQ-9 not HQ-11

Google images is lying to me again… Is there no TEL + TADS version of the HQ11? Or is it an all in one system

Yeah, but CIO website doesn’t mention any additional missiles for OWS-30, unlike for a regular VBM Freccia. Such launchers aren’t supposed to be reloaded in the battle as far as I understand, although in the game vehicles with similar turrets still carry some (2 more for KF41 for example), although theoretically and logically there shouldn’t be any issues to carry the same amount as a regular Freccia.

HQ-11 is only in the all in one system config

It should be paired with the LD-3000 C-RAM but I doubt it’ll be added as a multi system SAM

The hull being the same will probably suffice, the loading system would probably be similar to the one that the current VBM Freccia has in game.

Wikipedia says it was TEL+R system first, then developed into TELAR lately

Edit: The article references Janes. Other searches depict the TELAR and refers to it as TEL. So i dont really know

I don’t have access to a computer, and I don’t know why the “spoiler” option on my phone doesn’t work.

irl regular Freccia launchers are reloaded from the inside unlike OWS-30 afaik, but well hopefully there won’t be any difference in the game.

With how prevelent FNF missile spam already is and will get even worse in the future they will have to add CIWS system in the near future. It is unreasonable that a SAM has to loose all of its missiles just to defend against sth that can rearm within minutes compared to your limited arsenal.

Again one can only dream…

The HQ-11 system consists of a SAM vehicle with an integrated radar and a 11×30mm CIWS equipped with its own fire control radar.

I think the HQ-11 is once again a really weird choice for China as i cant find any information on the radar or missile apart from guidance mode and max range for the export variant (FM-3000)

so once again we’ll be at the mercy of Gaijin like with the CS/SA5
