You can shoot the Spike NLOS missiles from the Pereh without even physically seeing your target. That would be 10.7+ capable. These missiles are not like the Spike-LR in game.

I wonder why these werent, say, sent to china or the ussr or the greeks
the maps are not that big so there wouldn’t be a difference between aiming with Spike NLOS or Spike-LR. I know that they have different ranges but it wont matter much on average 4km x 4km maps

The Spike NLOS itself is a LOT larger than the Spike-LR missile. It can easily penetrate every tank in-game. You can fire it from spawn directly into the enemies spawn at immediate start to the game and adjust its trajectory mid-flight to make sure you have a direct hit. It’s a missile artillery system essentially. If your team spawned in all Pereh’s for example, especially on a large field map, they could kill the entire enemy team at start.
The missile diameter of the Spike NLOS is 170mm compared to the Spike-LR’s 130mm. The Spike NLOS isn’t an old system, even on the Pereh. It was upgraded throughout its lifetime.

then gaijin should give it the spike LR because they dont care about Israel anyway, after seeing them increasing the Namer weight to 64.4 tons and still its less armored than the puma, im not expecting much from them.

It can’t fire it. The Pereh and Hafiz can only fire the Spike NLOS. The Namer can’t fire the Spike NLOS either. Two different systems under the same name. Luckily the Spike-LR did get a pen boost just recently to 900mm.
If I remember correctly from my Hafiz suggestion, there may be one older SALCOS version of the NLOS that could be used but I don’t remember the specs. That would be the only way to have it at lower BR’s but it may be a hybrid system using radio frequency and SALCOS guidance up to a certain range.

Pereh was meant to carry Spike NLOS only, it’s whole purpose is to be NLOS, so it can attack behind cover and what-not due to past conflict experiences.

P-38F-13-LO
Built for the British as a Lightning II it remained a one off and was transferred to the USAAF for testing. Unusually it retained its British serial number.
One of the test programs saw it hauling torpedos skywards. Whilst I would love to see it in game I suspect it would languishing in the unused Tier II pile alongside the F6F-5 that lost its purpose when it got demoted.

Lighting strikes water 😉
Another raptor knock off XD
Very interesting!
It reminds me a lot of the Obj 490’s autoloader, M1128 turret, and overall similar to the T-14 Armata and AGS system, the ATGM variation seems similar to the I-TOW carrier and Strela MT-LB.

The TK scorpion is a completely separate model of the Su-25, it’s a Georgian-Israeli upgrade variant :P
Oh, wait, nope, I’m thinking KM, oopsies

You’re thinking about the Su-25KM, this one is just a export of the Su-25T.

INB4 gaijin don’t give it countermeasures ( and missiles) like the Q-5L for the longest time (((((

Looks like a sleeker mozy, i need it. Question is, will it go to britain or america… Arguments for both but i would prefer it go to britian, but i dont mind either way as i have both nations.
Based on prior precedents it will probably go to America, Britain has a surprisingly low portion of the lend-lease aircraft it purchased and an even lower portion of those made specifically for Britain as a customer.
Some argue it detracts from the US tree and dilutes the British tree, but I argue the vehicles wouldn’t exist without the UK as a customer and as a result of leaving these vehicles out, the holes the vehicles filled irl are left empty in-game.
(This is a statement about lend-lease as a whole, as for this specific P-38, i’m not too fussed).
