The US, UK and many other nations have 0 ability to shoot down SU25s with thier Bias 20000km ATGMs Russian players will literally take off from the Airfield in Ground RB and shoot 20 missiles and they’ll all hit and kill someone. Yet there isnt a SPAA on the game capable of shooting them down beyon 10km lol I guess gayjin wants this game to die just to appease thier Russian Overlords l

lol Su-25SM3 is an AV-8B equivalent.
F-14B has been doing this for far longer.
What in the hell is this ATGM. I don’t think this is Bias because both Su-25SM3 and Pantsir-S1 are not accessible to the vast majority of USSR players. It’s just a logical reward for end of line vehicles,
Now with, you may say other nations must get equivalent vehicles, they already have. In lower BR, using a example, you’ll perform better with French and German vehicles, some which features rangefinder, something you find in very few Soviet vehicles,
Keeping the topic above — China has access to Laser Rangefinder early than any other nation, Germany has a solid 8.0 - 8.3 lineup, specially in Ground Simulator where you fight DF105 in a T-54,
US has access to one of the best vehicles in 6.7 with good CAS in all BRs with good ordinances options, UK has access to very good vehicles capable of doing crazy things like the Striker, you can fire a ATGM at 90º angle between the camera and chassis of the vehicle, considering that Soviet vehicles struggles with hilly terrain, this is where this vehicle shine,
Yes you may counterargument me with “Those are specific case scenario.” And I may reply with the same about Su-25SM3 and Pantsir-S1, because they’re.
If you played Soviet union end-to-end, you can notice that the vehicles starts to be really good by 8.7.

Good thing is when you play UK you always get teamed up with USSR.

On the CAS subject, you can pretty much forget about grinding and straight up buy the A-10 Early and spam AGM-65 at a secure distance, considering the current BR, only one SPAA are capable of shooting down this A-10, it’s not Strela-10M2, because this vehicle can only perform at short ranges,
In this case is the 2S6 Tunguska, and you barely find one in match, returning again to the topic of those vehicles are not much accessible or people just don’t play with them, about it I can’t say much.
With the Tunguska you have access to 10.0 km missiles but considering that the A-10 Early AGM-65 can be launched by the same range of the missile, you can forget about it, launch and return to a safe distance. They’re TV guided.

I am routinely (like multiple a day) murdering the A10 with the Starstreak HVM and/or the G-Lynx and ATAS.
You don’t need the 2S6, though I will admit she’s a bad chicken

Yeah i get what you’re saying but at Top tier its all completely unbalanced. Pantisr can shoot you down as soon as you spawn. The US only has the ADATS for longer range AA and after the multiple nerfs its really on good for helicopters.
Great squadron btw! Lol Enjoy your Russian bias bro lol
Damn, someone call NASA. This has to be the world’s most efficient rocket engine that ever existed assuming continous thrust without any orbital magic and constant drag.

Are you awake? Dude, have you seen what Gaijin is doing with Russian tanks? I play T-90M and I think it’s target shooting. There are foolish people who talk about balance without looking at reality and objective factors. Is Gaijin upgrading Russian or NATO tanks? I have been playing this game for more than 10 years since there was a Vietnamese server. This is the first time I have commented on my frustration with Russian tanks.

The SPAAs that we’re supposed to use to deal with this kind of threat environment are not sufficient.
And if you’re in an uptier it’s even worse.
Leaving the Pantsir and the Tor out for a moment and concentrate on Top Tier only.
Since the nerf of the missile guidance system to a “more realistic control” your effective range for the VT-1 is between 6-8km, depending on how agile the plane manouvers.
If the pilot is smart enough, then you can reduce that effective range to a maximum of 4km and even then you have a hard time trying to encourage the missile to go where it has to go or lead the plane with the missile.
CAS in Top Tier, if you’re not playing against Russia or China, can be a very easy way to get kills because the other SPAAs have a very, very difficult time touching you.
And instead of re-balancing the SPAAs Gaijin rather adds more CAS capability.
And yes, you can hop into a plane to provide air cover for your team, but I do play Ground to play ground vehicles and not Air RB with player driven ground units.

When was there a Vietnamese server? The only country that ever got a dedicated server was China.
I think you meant 7 years?
I personally prefer fighting russian mbts since I find them much more consistent to oneshot. Not sure how people have such a hard time fighting them. I use the same method from like 9.7 and up and it works fine.

Refusal to spall after good shots, glitchy almost by design volumetric armor designs that love to delete shells, fuel tanks that eat darts etc
Oh look, what’s been happening to the Soviets for years using F-14B, etc.
Tho Su-24M is worse than F-14B as CAS.
@Italy_Suffers
If the armor blocked your shot, it’s not a glitch. Real-life armor did that.
Armor spalling is normal.
And fuel tanks did exist as armor for the crew.

They explode 10km away and kill you? Missiles are a much bigger threat when launched at a closer range
