which version of the Pantsir?
They upgraded them lots
also movable hitboxes would be nice…
Why do you need SPAA if you have Pansir?
Have you seen how the radar works after the update? Not to mention the way the ef2000 and rafale players maneuver, then dodge the missile…
So you’re saying that this bug is affecting my skill?
Learn to use a literally broken vehicle with a major bug affecting it?
sure thing bro
This was before the update too.
i think the S-350 with its short range missiles would be a good one. since some of its missiles are pretty similar to the iris range wise
Before that fix the CS/SA5 first
Is there still something wrong with that vehicle?
wrong place to complain about that
If we are talking about single vehicle short range air defence we have 3 options:
- Sosna ADMS. More of a follow up to Strela, less capable than Pantsir but with some advantages.
- Tor M-2. Kind of a sidegrade compared to Pantsir-S1.
- Pantsir-SM-SV. This is the big upgrade over Pantsir-S1, especially if its the SV model, with the tracked chassis. Seriously I´m hating Pantsir-S1 for being on a lousy truck.
Now, talking medium range, multi vehicle its either Buk-M3 or S-350. Older versions of Buk just won´t cut it but wouldn´t rule out introducing them far below top tier.
Buk-M3 is a far better system at medium range than anything currently ingame and its Telars can operate independently. And 70km capable ARH says everything else. Perhaps this alone will force aircraft to spawn much further than they do right now (about 20-30km) just to give them a chance to go extremely low and avoid detection.
S-350 if introduced now should be artificially nerfed and lacking its 9M96 missiles, which is a self defeating move IMO so it could well wait a year or two when we get a new top tier.
So, Buk-M3 would be the right choice in my opinion.
Fox- (uhhhh…)

I think the S-400 it look like a cool SAM every other nation are starting to get a better SAM or multi vehicle SAM so I wonder what if Russia get one as well. The S-400 the super huge radar and missles.
I hope… the next addition of SPAA didn’t bring back the KH-38 spam lol
I am seeing lot of KH-29te Spam now… where did the Kh-38 went?
The Buk M1 been trying to get it added for a while now.
I’d say add the S-350 if they decide to add the SAMP/T. It also has a range of 120km.
Well they should hold back on SAMP/T a little. Though the problems nowadays encountered ingame (CAS having a field day most of matches) is explained mostly by map design: most maps are either too small or the geography too detrimental to SAM; you either can´t have proper radar image (and CAS do what they want with impunity) because you are spawn at the bottom of a hill or you are just too busy trying to dodge HEAT shots by tanks. No real world AA system would be deployed under such conditions. So they could introduce S-400, S-500 and wouldn´t make much difference.
