So with the new SPAAs coming in the next update , it's only fair for Italy and France to get the SAMP/T

I feel like it could be nerfed to have the same attributes to the other SPAAs that are about to be in the game and when the Patriot and S-300 come into the game , it can be updated to it’s real specs.

Right now Italy and France really need a better SPAA , specially Italy

SAMP/T is more inline with S300 or patriot but there is zero reason why France shouldnt be getting a VL MICA system

Give it to Italy too and it would be lovely

Italy could also get the caam-er,the aspide,the grifo or the spada, there plenty of AA

Italy does need a SPAA without a doubt, however one thing I think should be corrected (if I’m not wrong). I don’t think Aster 15 was fired from Italian SAMP/T, only the 30 (or higher?). But that’s not that big of a deal as other alternatives exist

Yeah the only time aster 15 is mentionned it’s sea launched but seems like the dev will go for it .

oh boy, i wanted to double check and he basically said :

“For nation that don’t have SPAAs, there is first of all France and Italy, with a large abbreviation i can’t remember, i think it fires a missile named Aster […] it’s in the works and will most likely come next major”

His colleague : “That’s insider information for you”



Now it means different scenarios are here :

  • They don’t know SAMP/T doesn’t carry Aster-15
  • They don’t care about it and will add Aster-15 anyway (my money on this one)
  • They want to add Aster-30, but misread its specs

I wonder if we’ll get Ground Fire 300, nothing like a 400km range AESA radar (overkill ? never heard of this concept)

With multi-vehicle SAMs they could also get the Crotale now too

I’ve suggested it, but I think for vehicles who have newly introduced mechanics only get approved minimum after the update release

Why would you want an Inferior ITO?

Afaik SAMP/T can at least technically use Aster-15 without any issues.

It can fill a gap between the Roland and Crotale NG

did they really say for a next major update ? or just a mistranslation or misunderstood on me ?

could be lost in translation but i think they said : “coming next patch (the September one), and if not one of those after.”

So in any case, somewhere in autumn

sadge … italy really need something … france too but a bit less

They also mentionned this :

In on itself it doesn’t mean much, but i think that’s an other case of translation being lost, you can hear him say “3 country”, which would mean “For later we consider adding new things (SPAA) for 3 countries”.

Italy and France being the 2 first ones, i assume the one mentionned here, aside Italy and France, is the UK

Edit : they were mentionning BUK 3 apparently

That’s a weird translation XD
Your “3 countries” are actually “BUK-M3” lol
He said: “in USSR we are considering BUK-M3”.

ah
Sounds similar it got me

Most likely in the next update or one after it.

France should get VT-1 buffed for the time being, it’s underperforming and this change would help Sweden and maybe Germany as well.
