The german 2A4 has roughly 9 times the spawns of the next most spawned 2A4, the swedish one. The other 2 are even lower, at ~4 and 2 million spawns.
Kills/Spawn are roughly within 10% of each other, where the differnce with the german TT one is probably down to the way bigger sample size.
Yes but by his argument that doesn’t matter
Russia with the BUK also has a bigger sample size then Italy with the SAMP/T
Buk (and pantsir btw) had fine stats until they introduced free spaa and free pantsirs started “stealing” kills.
70sp vs 700 - 1000sp. It’s super effective even when it’s 3 spaa die vs 1 plane die. And k/d pretty stupid for spaa when most deaths from ground vehicles.
also russia tends to fight against the least CAS right now, because the nation spawning by far the most CAS is russia
I agree that this is probably true, but I don’t think there’s more than a 10-15% difference. Most nations have very solid CAS right now + spam thier prem/squadron 12.3 plane.
Actually? Because that would be insane and put into question Gaijins entire reasoning for adding this new Pantsir
Nothing compares to the KH-38MT though atm
a million spice bombs r better
way slower, i rather have a spice load to defeat then KH-38’s
After new spaa I didn’t have much problems with KH-38MT. They are still strong but they are manageable now.
Did they fix the bug when they were uninterceptable in 9/10 times? Most my encounters were like that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S7K4UFYOg4
Yeah. Most spaa stats become worse in December. I think it’s due free spaa.

Your argument about the ‘free Pantsir’ stealing kills makes no sense. The Buk’s missile is actually 200m/s faster than the Pantsir’s. If the Buk were truly effective, it would be the one reaching the target first and ‘stealing’ the kills from the Pantsir, not the other way around
SP cost is a teammate’s excuse for failure, not a metric of a vehicle’s effectiveness. We are talking about hardware efficiency, not team economy. If you need 3 Buks to kill 1 plane, that system is statistically inferior to a SAMP/T that maintains a positive K/D against the same (or better) targets. Also, if you claim most deaths are from ground vehicles, that applies to BOTH the Buk and the SAMP/T. If the SAMP/T still has a significantly higher median K/D despite facing the same ground threats, it proves the system is more survivable or more capable of clearing the airspace before it gets pushed. Data doesn’t lie—the SAMP/T performs better in the actual combat environment.
Comparing clone statistics and comparing different AA systems are DIFFERENT STATISTICAL TOPICS. You are mixing them up to avoid the facts.
Again: the efficiency of clones is about finding a median. The efficiency of unique AA systems is about hardware performance. These are DIFFERENT TOPICS.
True. I almost never saw French or Italian players placing 2 launchers next to their TADS and die from a single missile, or first spawning their spaa to die from a flanking tank.
At the same time the lobomtomized Russian (and German) players are regurarly doing this.
But ofc the BUK is not effective enough. Their players are so bad that I consider the BUK among the easier targets when I play cas.
See that in every game.
people are also ignoring that the BUK is by far the best ARH AA against LDIRCM helicopters, because the launcher radar gives datalink updates often enough for it to still hit them if they dont break line of sight from the launchers
Everybody else has this problem, not just BUK
yeah but like mister says, buk is so special because the insane aesa radar who is suppose to work against notch and heli dircm.
and it does
more often than other ARH AAs
