The pantsir radar will drop a contact in favour of its fired ammunition, pretty much wasting a missile.
When a plane I am tracking fires a missile, the radar will immediatly start tracking said missile and guiding on it, this makes using it harder than it should be. No other vehicle has this issue, only the pantsir’s AESA TWS radar.

More videos of this bug, I am tracking a J11, first he drops chaff and the radar switches to the chaff and then switches to the missile
The S1 is no longer in top 3 AA anymore because of this glitchly update compared to these new multi vehicle AA S1 cant compete its stupid they give basically every nation a new AA and nothing to russia we have seen ever since the December update the S1 isnt good and cant defend itself from multi planes at once meanwhile this new OP german SAM system is lock shoot kill all in that order i PRAY we get something next update that can hold its own
the irist slm is so trash. It dosnt have his aesa radar (pantsir has his aesa). it dosnt get his back lock function.the radar is extremly slow . the missile changes just like the pantsir onto the missile of the plane and not stay on the plane. the irist sl delta link dosnt work like it should be (it should delta link each missile to the target it got fired on and not just to the only tws lock u can have ) (pantsir can dl 4 missiles at the same time too 4 diffrent targets). it only sees one target at the time with its tws radar in 3rd person (pantsir deos see all the targets in on his radar in 3rd person). the missile schould go mach 3 and not mach 2.85 max speed. the iir shouldnt get flared cause its the image ir seeker. the explosive is wrong on the iris t missile it should be around 11kg explosive. and the range is to low it should be effective at 40km.
Bro i have been playing CAS with the su30 ever since this update came out i get shot down 7/10 of the time and as for S1 its very easy to overwhelm a S1
the irist slm radar needs about 2,5 sek to make on 360 turn so every 2,5 sek ur tws lock gets refreshed also means u never going to know where the target rly is because u only see where it was the last 2,5 sek (if there is a bomb or missile on the way its casual locking the missile because it is the nearest thing ob the radar )
Yes, that was a lot of NERFs due to the crying of CAS players, now with the new AAA there is a huge no fly zone on the map, it was the first time I played without dying several times for CAS
Pantsir radar screen doesnt even work for me, have to exit to lock something then go back and fire, cant lock targets from radar screen.
Irist works fine for me, though it seems to have trouble sometimes shooting down kh38, maybe just proxy bug.
did this new update fiddle with the pantsir radar or missiles? theyre completely useless and miss everything
This bug has existed since La Royale but the radar screen is half baked, for example you can’t filter missiles or friendlies so it’s super cluttered.
SLAMRAAM is trash, aim120 doesn’t track half of the time, is too slow and is defeated by 1 slight turn
it might be gazebo effect but it seems even worse than ever before now, after the last update. these missiles dont do damage nor tracking
just to add to this, im also having issues with radar detection and lock, pantsir seems to not be able to see anything on radar anymore
You using the new radar screen? It barely works for me.
The whole thing is cooked tbh and has been for a long time. Love me russian bias. Pretty funny you can basically and always have been to able to ruin a launch with dumb rocket pods, only seen a few people do it though. Just bring like a mighty mouse pod shoot at pantsir and throw and agm in there and he cant shoot it down or hit you.
Also had a drone fly infront of me during a launch today and pull the radar off target.
I think ppl just put up with this because all the other spaa sucked but now why bother spawning this? This has to be the buggiest vehicle in the game with the longest standing bug that had this much impact. Id wager if the radar actually worked properly the last year its a2a kd would be double what it is now.
According to statshark the adats even has a higher kda, this is what ppl have been crying about for over a year lmao.
Now it can’t even lock stuff, it’s broken twice
Make sure you aren’t aiming down sights when you enter the radar screen otherwise it uses the incredibly tiny acm mode instead of the big one.
In general the radar screen is broken, search radar can see stuff flying high but the tracking radar points the ground so it can’t see the target. Same happens with helicopters sometimes when instead they fly too low
Pantsir uses PESA with both the tracking and search radar
I seem to only have the opposite problem, the search radar can see stuff flying low but the track radar refuses to lock it, dropping out of the radar screen I can even visually see the planes, as it is now I think playing the pantsir in the new radar screen is just not a good idea.
For some reason though, idk if its true, but it does feel like launches from the new radar screen are a lot more resistant to getting lock pulled from rockets/missiles.
With how SPAA is now on these new maps its just not fun to play, literally every other match i’ll shoot at someone/shoot them down and then another CAS player thats hiding low gets a perfect ping on my posistion and its just over from there.
The best thing about the new multi vehicle sams is the fact you wont be dying to this kind of thing, since you are in 3 places at once and the smoke trail can only be used to find 1 launcher.
Dunno how many times today I’d shoot someone down, then 10 seconds later get lawnmowed by zunis or s8O or just a gun run that you have about 2 seconds to react to with non radar assisted guns, so you’ll have to hear them coming and pre aim and most times your best outcome is a trade.
tired of playing SPAA in a fishbowl. IRIST and gepards are about the only ones that are semi fun to play. 26S is alright too.
