Potential Chinese Ground Force Additions

Gaijin adds yet another great SPAA to Russia while ignoring demands for a reasonably good SPAA in the Chinese tree. I don’t oppose good SPAAs to be added to some nations but every nation should at least have a useable SPAA

China is far from not having “usable SPAA” (unless you’re talking about nations, like Sweden, but it’s a bit weird to talk about here)

FK-2000 would be better

what are chinas options for longer ranged top tier anti air?
FK1000/2000, LY70, KS-1A ?

like, 3 minutes of google gives me this for the PRC

The ROC has this

HQ-16, no point in getting anything with less than 50km range

HQ-22 or HQ-16C is probably the best option. HQ-22 should be comparable to Aster 30

Personally I’d say Bee Eye w/ sky sword II. Seems somewhat more balanced than 170KM, & it comes in TEL launchers.

Actually I meant the export version of HQ-22 which only has 100km range

isnt sky sword 15kms? Personally i think its too small of a range compared to the buk or sampt ngl. On par with tan sam kai?

Unless im missing something

Naw that’s way better than the tan sam. That thing is just sad.

fk-1000/2000 is Pantsir equal system, no longer a good choice.
LY-70 is ARH SLM equal but with additional FB-10A attached.
KS-1A/HQ-12 and HQ-22 is not so suitable for game for their low ammo storage.
HQ-11 is also a ARH SLM equal, with basically larger version of TOR’s missile.
BUK equal is HQ-16/LY-80, not sure if the latest version has ARH seeker

I’d compare HQ-11 to S-350 with base 9M96, its pretty similar

not very comparable imo, HQ-11/FM-3000 is still basically a larger TOR/9M331

some new SPAA choices

M60Upgrade

Model of current plan displayed in TADTE. Programme is now in cooperation with Leonardo DRS.

Aluminum alloy turret spaced armours. Auxiliary power unit in the bustle rack. Electrical turret drive. New gunner’s sight. Commander’s independent sight is also a remote weapon station. 'May adopt a variant of the 105mm used by the new wheeled mobile gun for compatibility with the latter’s newly-developed ammunitions.

One of the design focuses is to minimize weight growth since no modification is to be done to the hull.
