Now the question is when is Russia getting a new Fox 3?
in two years. They are fine as is with the R-77-1.

The F/A-18E/F Super Hornets need the AIM-120D atm regardless of whether it’s the U.S. or Australian version.

out of any tech tree, USSR is the one tech tree that needs new things the least right now.
The RAAF Hornet wasn’t some last minute thing to give UK AIM-120D because of moaning
The RAAF Rhino was always going to come ever since the classic Hornets got added

We said nothing was yet fully final and subject to change. We also later clarified further:

they didn’t need the Kh-39 for the Mi-28NM, they didn’t need the Su-30SM2, they didn’t need the Buk-M3, nor two BMPTs, the 2S38 OR the two BMD-4Ms to begin with.
Generally yeah, but id kill for a t62mv.
They did need the Su-30SM. They had no aircraft with similar or better PD radar performance (only worse; by miles), they had no CAS options that were capable enough to still fight (their best CAS was Su-25SM3; meanwhile the Americans had F-15E).
They did need the Buk-M3; every other ‘major’ nation had their multi-SAM except for USSR, France and others.
I can’t speak for the BMPTs/other ground vehicles
After seeing your edits:
- Su-30SM2 fixed many issues the previous Su-30SM had. It didn’t bring anything “new” except a new radar and stronger engines. If anything, it just put USSR on par with everyone else who “climbed” in capability.
Then why give them the M3 that entered service in 2017, and not the M2 or M1?
because its not fair to give semi active missile while other have active radar missile.
😐 … bro
ok so what fire and forget option there is lmao ?
all nation got the 300* radar so why not russia ?
thats just on you and your mind where a hate to this country make you statement completly none sense and only want bad things for it.
the Pantsir was already doing good work agaisnt Aircraft, and now you have everyone being able to spawn it without needing to research it.
and now we have something that can target you as soon as you spawn in and send a missile your way.
Yeah I’ve never seen the aim54 loft to 50,000ft to reach a target 46 miles away in game
Literally every nation can do this
you really think pantsir is on the same level as irst or sampt ? nah your just trolling lmao
never claimed such. Just saying it holds up well.
pantsir can only kills it the target only in sight.
others can launch and hwen target behinde cover, the missile still follow.
not to forget they can do 40km ( 60km if the target is high) compare to the 20km poor range of pantsir
That’s because the lofting logic for that is incorrect. It’s supposed to climb all the way up to ~80 000 ft (this is nominally based on a target >100 km away, but still; the loft-climb altitude is still too low even for ~50 km launches) and it should have a max speed of Mach 5, not whatever it is currently
