Hell no, bombs need precise aim, so need to go close and keep steady to ensure kill. Which is suicide if they’re paying attention. Even with CCIP imo.
LGB, sure.
you know that the gepard has huge aim nerf ? the first gepard was realy good, the actual you need to know to aim … ;)
So basically you are not tired of the Gepard spam, but of players who are actually knowing their equipment and using it to its full potential.

On a sidenote:
The chinese PGZ09 has Gen2 thermals at 8.3 BR while the Gepard doesn’t even have NVD, even though it is designed to be an All-Weather-Capable platform.
Just saying :)

What a terrible take. The AMX-30 DCA has a superior ground belt compared to the Gepard as it is not limited in how much APDS it can take, and while the radar does not have IFF it is massively superior to the Gepard’s radar thanks to the high vertical scan angle at 40°.

im pretty sure the radar is a bit worse on the type 87, as the type 87s radar has like a tracking limited to 9 degrees?
I don’t know how I missed this topic but this is a funny one.

CCIP is very easy to drop out at 3-4km range. Use CCRP and you can go 10km out.
We need a cry/rant section in this forum. This isn’t even a serious contribution, just a rant and it attracts all the crybabies that never see the problem in how they play a certain mode or vehicle - no, everything else is just op.
The Gepard is a very capable platform and so is every other vehicle from the Marksman family, but they all pop from the slightest spring brease. So i see the problem here between screen and chair. Don’t just rush in like a brainless lemming (like 95% of the playerbase) and everything will be fine.

The Gepard sits good where it is right now, as does the 1A2.
You can, of course, 90° sidepen almost every light and medium tank, but what 25mm+ can’t? Most tanks are still immune from the front or angled. It has APDS, yes, but only 40 round, just enough for 1, maybe 2 tanks (if they don’t tank the rounds).
Also it is tall as fuck, you just have to shoot right into the turret, and its dead, tadaaa.
As a plane I recommend keeping your distance and avoiding incoming fire. The Gepard is not that accurate from 2,5km+ away. If you fly right over someones head, of course you will be shot down, as is the case with every other SPAA.
I also recommend not bringing Props to 8.0, they are slow and easy targets. The faster you are, the harder you are to hit.
I myself quite enjoy shooting pesty CAS out of the sky.

Coming from a German main?
Gepard isnt annoying at all, easy to counter with low flying and guns or even retarded bombs.
Now pantsir, that you can say is annoying, any slightly competent pantsir player can make a no fly zone.

It’s an 8.3, so it shouldn’t see anything below 7.3
jesus buddy you are using the oldest of all posts and not even the new ones,
And nearly every nation has a gepard. Japan, China, UK, Sweden all have their Gepards.
Honestly yes it is skill issue if you cant deal with them

“Skill issue” hue hue
If anyone wants to laugh at Gepards or their equivalents, just roll out the T-10M and hose it down with the 14.5. Even if they kill your barrel they can’t easily do much else.
You are aware zhe 14.5 cam be disabled as well right?
Not going to happen before the gepard is dead.
