That’s the best response you have?
Edit: Someone else already posted your stats. Please read my earlier posts because they are no longer a theory, you have a skill issue with CAS.
Interesting, like I said I don’t know for sure so I’m happy to be wrong. That was just my understanding of it.
Only vehicles I really struggle with are M247, PGZ, and Ozelot. If they’re being played well you have zero chance of finding them before getting shot down. Most helicopters in the area don’t have thermals or don’t have flares and tracerless proxy rounds will just delete you before you even know what’s happening. Helicopters in the BR have had CCIP removed from their toolkit or have been moved up in BR to the point where only competent players can do well in them, but anyone who has at least bound the correct keys to use their SPAA can shoot down most helicopters without even trying. Just to clarify, I’m talking specifically about people who are playing these specific vehicles well, meaning they turn off their radar when they don’t need it, leave spawn and use hard cover, and don’t lock you until they know you’re in range. If they don’t broadcast their position like a newbie, you are completely screwed and there’s not really any counterplay.

Ignore the turning off thrust throwing my missile directly in to the trash can
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
I don’t think 9.3-10.3 SPAA is OP, I think it’s exactly how powerful AA should be everywhere.
People have gotten too comfortable with AA being weak or outright useless across most of the BR spectrum.
God forbid at least one BR area has AA actually be capable of offering some genuine deterrence.

Keep it appropriate bud
9.3 SPAA should be at least as expensive as CAS if it’s going to have such a large advantage.
I disagree with the notion that these AA have a large advantage.
I think they are simply lessening the large advantage that CAS itself is used to enjoying everywhere else in the BR spectrum.
Maybe CAS players at this BR are just struggling to adapt to an environment where they can’t simply fly in straight lines and space bar half the enemy team with ease.
SPAA was already braindead with the only skill needed being a basic understanding of lead and drop (something every CAS player needs anyways), but now SPAA doesn’t even need that.
Edit: I shouldn’t use abbreviations on 4 hours of sleep
As if CAS simply pointing the nose in a tanks general direction and pressing space bar requires a PhD.

Nothing in this game is difficult if you frame it as “Somewhat competent person A presses the ‘deal damage’ button at incompetent person B”.
This is part of the reason why the relationship between SPAA and CAS is so hard to discuss. Both sides of the discussion need to have an honest interpretation on the amount of power different aspects of vehicles have.
If this was true every WW2 BR match wouldn’t be an airshow.

Ironic coming from the guy with a 0.7 K/D (against air targets) in their Imp. Chaparral.

I have flared missiles with SNEB rockets on my alpha jet so I don’t know what you are on about
