Yeah it’s because it’s the first gen radar from 1995 serving as a detection system for missiles from 2000’s when there are plenty of newer radar systems that could have been added.
There are updates to the AN/MPQ-64 that would make the AA worth being in top tier. Remove the AIM-9x and it’s such a worse system.
You can confirm that it’s the first generation via the xray on the CLAWS and NASAMS
i think they will add patriot in the next update ? irrc BVVD also said that they were planning to add HARMs in the next update - we will probably see partriot/s300/400/350 depending on which missiles they add for the patriot ig.
The buk ingame is using bukm2 radar, so its 1988 not even near 2000s, which is also why the buk radar is useless and the TELARS are the only usable bit about it
Im pretty sure its all called viking, just how buk is always grizzly, but im not gonna bother with bug reporting just for a “not a bug”, or “not enough info”, trying to get things like j10c or t80bvm corrected is impossible atp
Why HQ19? Ain’t that supposed to be for satellites and BMs? Sort of like a smaller Thadd. The only meaningful target might be the MiG25 even then 20km and 200km alt are very different.
Jokes aside HQ9 will do. Being a very similar to S300 vehicle will also prevent gaijin to nerf it too much in some ways.
I mean it will be cool if they one day added spacecrafts.
The Chinese SPAA systems from now on are pretty limited though, and half their predecessors are butchered so I have little hopes unless they get a fully Russian system anything will change.
same goes for patriot right ? i would not based my view on a sams based on irl events as there are a lot to consider that are not implemented in the game
I mean it depends, since the Chinese are that much better at keeping things, especially from the past two decades secretive, since there’s no need to disclose any to congress or what ever.
And the only conflict ever attended by them is pretty much the ‘5.7’ one and that is too recent for more info.
