I believe that’s a mistake, Vacuum-1 from what I know about it should be around 850-900mm of RHA at 2km? Iirc
The 1000mm figure is for the 2A83 firing much larger rods like Grifel.

Italy? Not even close to being a bad air nation. Rn the only nations without 14.0 air vehicles are Russia, China, and Sweden
Italy imo is one of the better air nations if not the best(in terms of variety, also rn they have a better EFT than germany so again they have no problems air wise.), wide selection of vehicles from Russia, Britain, and the US, alongside the best gripen C model of the gripens. To say they are bad either shows a lack of knowledge or just ignorance.
I haven’t touched Italys air tree nor have warthunder open right now.
Nobody plays that tech tree either, so I figured it wasn’t all that good. I know ground isn’t the greatest for them.
Yeah but it’s still not terribly needed right now, I’ve seen people going ham in the JAS still
Thats because you have to learn how to play trashy vehicles rn of the nations without a 14.0 it goes J10, JAS39C, SU-27SM
Again its silly to think the Gripen C is fine in the Meta, you cant turn fight any of the 14.0’s you’re slower and have less missiles and a weaker radar than them. Thats a big enough difference that imo they should be higher. SU-27SM is only semi decent because it gets 12 missiles, too bad they have unbelievably high drag so they suck more than R27ER’s lol.
Italy is also played more than Sweden is at top tier, they get consistent updates to their air tree and they have a lot of options and vehicles to play.
Again, if you think the Gripen is fine it tells me you haven’t actually played it. If you’ve only played the current 14.0’s im not suprised you have no idea how poorly it performs. Considering its slower than an F16C and speed is a large part of the meta, you also only get 4 aim 120’s sounds great for the Meta when everyone uses about 6 or 8 Fox 3’s especially with a radar from a 13.0
Remember the last time the F-18 was asked for?
Also the jas has been top of my team a few times in sim, so it can’t be all that bad when the rest of the team is f16s and F15s
Again when I’m fighting noobs who have no idea what they are doing it tends to be easy. I guess by this same loguc the 1951 EBR is fine at 5.3 with the same pen as a 3.3 sherman? But its okay because I a decent player know how to play maps and know my enemies weak spots? No, thats silly, the Gripen is mid and the 14.0 vehicles should be 14.3 also yeah US players tend to be F4S bombers, i have way too many matches where i see a F15E bombing…
Also why bring F18? I didn’t mention it did i? Regardless you seem to not have much of an understanding of players and general skill. If players are stuck with garbage vehicles on minor nations they tend to do better than noobs with the best vehicle, we’re going off topic if you wish to continue this DM me otherwise id suggest calling it here before a snail mod eats us.
