They have to fact-check as well as determine severity of the issue compared to other issues.
13km won’t change ADATS being useless, but the explosive filler will change damage to helicopters.
@Mizzar1529
Ka-50s were still dying to pilot snipes left and right.
Stats were showing Ka-50s dying, much like how stats showed F-16Cs dying to Pantsir despite F-16C being unkillable when used corrected.
That’s just not true. Having a greater range to track targets means you can fire ahead in anticipation so when the target reaches the 10km range, the missile will probably be half-way there.
It’s not going to make the ADATS good but it’s still an improvement nevertheless
Edit: not sure why every time I reply, it doesn’t actually reply
Yes, this would only help a little bit against helicopters.
The ADATS’ missiles already struggles past ~8km, so at 14km they won’t hit any jets at all.
Why I love helicopters so much ) I love when they can see my pilots grin clearly and they love how easy it is for me to die as a result. It’s a win for me and a win for them.
I wouldn’t say underwhelming as it’s the best top end heli in the US tree and in the right hands can be very good at CAP. Much better than the AH-64D is that is for sure. With that said we can still do work just not as good as others and that is ok with me as long as it isn’t night and day difference between helis. I dont own the KA-50 and after test driving it a little I know I wont ever own it because it would be too much fun. If I could just borrow that gun it has for a littlebit and throw it on a US heli and you’d likely never see me in forums again. If only Gaijin could finally give the MH-60L DAP guns working gun convergence that heli would finally have its proper identity being different from the other two options US has with its two 30mm LR30 cannons which are much better than the apache but currently are useless as they fire way too wide and you cant fix it with gun convergence. Almost a year now I’ve been waiting for them to fix after reporting it.
That’s my point though, TV/IR trackers give you no warning until they hit you, sure a longer flight time may give some extra chances to lose its LOS on you (which is one of the reasons I prefer urban maps) but it’s more dumb luck than anything. At least laser guided weapons give you a LWRS alert so you have a chance to try to smoke or hide.
I’m not trying to defend the Kh38, I’m just pointing out that removing it won’t solve the ATGM spam as it was an issue long before Kh38 was added. And that if bias is involved it CAS bias more than Russia bias,
Seems like all Gaijin resources for top tier Russia go into the ground and CAS part of the Russian tree(s), leaving very little for top tier air apparently.
Just like all Gaijin resources for top tier US go into the US air tree, leaving very little for top tier ground.
hey hey but Brimstone FnF are god forbid because out out range SPAA while in the same times KH-38 are allowed
And both SU-34 and Tornado GR4 came out at the same time if i remember correctly
lol Gaijin really is double standard p*ick.
Honestly if u use IOG correctly 114s are good and i could easily say better than vikchrs
Only in terms of A2G tho and vikchrs are still cancer sniping helis from 8km which is just stupid also guns are just dark magic sniping from 3km like it was nothing
