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.
MiG-27 before Harrier GR7
ring any bell?
yet Pantsir came after Russian taste their own medicine for some short time because they can’t take it crying GR7 are OP lol
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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
I didn’t lie to you for anything, I’ve been with Gaijin for more than 10 years and this is a picture of another account of mine from 10 years ago. This is the first time I’ve come here to express my disappointment about the issue of armor protection of Russian tanks because gaijin has interfered too much, so you understand the seriousness of what I’m saying. In 2014 Gaijin transferred a part to a third party to operate the server in Vietnam and it bears the name of Vietnam.
