clearly, you don’t understand the situation, still keep the idea of “Pantsir being the best” and asking for a Pantsir equivalent while Pantsir already can’t fit the situation for long time

why no one took any pictures from front?
Pantsir is still a very competitive SPAA

Nice. IDK still need to see what’s in there. Could be a vertical launch thing, probably UAV as much as ATGM.

Should be modular, compatible to ATGM, Loitering Munition or UAV
CM-501 is an example of this kind of VLS launcher
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 )

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.
