I have been spending some time on the dev server but even with the new Anti Radiation missiles the Anti Air is waaaay too overpowered. It has better decision making than a Human being. If it feels like the probability of it being killed is low enough it will instantly turn off it´s radar. The moment the threat is gone the radar turns back on immediately, locks you right away and shoots you down. If it feels like it might get killed it will shoot down almost all your missiles by spamming it´s own missiles. I had to spam all of my missiles at one ItO90 while hugging the deck and even then it´s luck based. Hope Gaijin heavily nerfs the Anti Air in Nuclear Thunder to make it enjoyable again.

They need to add reaction delays and make chaff mess up guidance. Also they should not be able to detect or engage small missiles and glide bombs and only be able to detect kh38 sized missiles at close distance. Systems like Crotale can work for anti-ship missile interception on ships because they are queued by powerful ship search radars and wont be effective in that role when all they have is their small shorad radar.
