S-300 are launching even when im on the airport, even 2S6 that can shoot thrugh trees and hills with missiles, while playing NATO side you non-stop get launch warning, but when playing russia you barely get any from NATO SPAA’s, and why Russia have NATO’s SPAA, like bro in which universe, Russia got SPAA that isn’t even in the game, remove it and give something normal like Type 03 or add MIM-104’s to NATO bc now Russia side players fly at 10km and nothing happens to them, i fly 3 meters up and immediately get million radar warnings, stop bias and make game fair for just once

Both sides are ridiculous. ITO’s and 2S6s are pretty ridiculous, and will kill you or your munition unless you confuse them. Definitely need to be nerfed.

They just need to rework the AI Sam’s in general.

they aren’t even working well
SAMP/T turns your RWR/MAW into white noise for 5 minutes straight

ItO is nuts, 2S6 is way more manageable

Russia for some reason has ItO-90M’s

yes, definitely realistic, 2S6 killing me when im behind a hill 2 meters above the ground, yes its mega realistic
If they have a clear shoot to you, yes it is, but it’s AI and it’s hard to balance them, biased opinion
the convoy SPAA really shouldnt be anything more extreme than the shilka without radar so that the map over ground is actually playable.
Ive retreated to naval sorties as they are much more tolerable and fun

That only happens when ground forces advance far enough to capture depots, it’s the same for both sides (“NATO” 2S6s can spawn)

“Please give other team one of the most depressing SPAA in war thunder”
Yea, its much better to give an AA that isn’t even planned to be in the tech tree
i played around 20 games in nuclear escalation already after the event and never got a single russian spaa in my team
Not launching at just you, it doesn’t see you until you climb a reasonable bit.
Your RWR sensitivity is just high.
Definitely an issue. All SHORAD should have a slight delay before engaging and not act as if they know where you are 24/7
Idk what Russia you’ve been playing. SAMP/T is quite annoying once you’re in range. Besides. Most games I play with Russia half the team is launching Kh-31 at any one time at them.
Idk why they even removed them before. Could it be that patriot had lower range than S-300?
Aster cruising at mach 0.9 for 2 minutes after decelerating to insane drag will do that
when i play USA i always have RWR on, i mean like always track and launch warnings even when im on the airport, while playing russia i barely get any, only iv i get really close to NATO positions

I’ve been playing Nuclear Escalation since it first appeared as an in-game event. Accordingly, I’ve played quite a few matches in the current version, both on the NATO and the Russian side. I’ve really noticed that playing on the NATO side is much more pleasant than on the Russian side.
NATO has the full range of weapon systems in the game, from all variants of the Kh-31 to undetectable stealth bombs like the jasow and GBU-53. On top of that, they carry an absurd amount of these bombs per aircraft. NATO AA systems turn off their radar when you fire an anti-radiation missile at them. Russian AA systems don’t do this, because systems like the S-300 require an active lock. Plus, NATO has more radar systems per AA site.
The Russian side occasionally has the ITO-90, which is significantly more annoying than the 2S6 and not without reason. However, NATO only has the ITO-90, which makes flying near the frontline with the heavy Russian flight models very difficult; you just can’t get close enough without every single piece of ammunition you try to fire at the AI getting intercepted. This is because the Russian side doesn’t have any stealth bombs.
All of this is also reflected in the win rates. The Su-30MKM and J-16/J-15T wipe out the S-300 AA systems within a few minutes, while the SAMP-T remains active until the end of the match. Stealth bombs can also take out an entire site completely undetected without any retaliation from the AA. On average, out of 10 matches, NATO wins about 7 to 8 of them.

Have you never played Ultra Low Quality before? Cause if you haven’t, then you clearly don’t realize one of the issues War Thunder has, and no one has bothered to talk about it, is that higher graphics add more crap that doesn’t exist. This includes non-existent higher hills.

The ITO90 is genuine cancer i cannot even get close to the middle of the map without just exploding
