SPAA problem

Down low their are also mostly shit like Shilkas and the 37mm are dogwater compare to their counterparts until one of them equipped with stingers but still the Germanys Gepard also get them so still remain crap, USA also dogwater down low until they get the M247, and then the ammo count of the HE-VT is way too low.

But still enough to nuke 5 CAS degenerates that ruin the gameplay of my mbts.

nah, its not, people just trigger happy spamming the rounds. I rarely run out of the HE-VT rounds, it just takes a few burst and they are down, not an entire magazine.

Didn’t rearmed at the cap zones once yet I had enough for a few more air kills if they spawned in it.

Hey man, how do you enter an air battle with SPAA?

It was just that 1 game lol every other match was just 2 to 5 air kills, sometimes 0, Rare to see this many air kills around 9.0 to 9.7. I was honestly happy about it cuz I was looking forward to stopping CAS that day with the M247.

Real shit lol, I was in a match earlier today in the Type 81 and only TWO enemy aircraft spawned - a very early ka50 rocket rusher and a very late Su25. Nothing else, and they were winning.

Wish Gaijin could allow Towed AA to take part of the game. It’s not safe to shoot while its towed due to its light weight and its recoil…but thinking outside the box here. I know its possible to extend the legs while its attached. Why not allow us to key-bind the extension of the legs to just like we can with bulldozers for better stabilization and move slowly when extended? If we want to reposition, we can just retract them for better mobility. This will allow the addition of more AAA options for nations that are so limited to them.

And I agree with ya on this one. This will allow missing missiles for some SPAA like the Type 81 AHR missiles or SAM that rely on support vehicles. Just gotta park one in the spawn and only activates when someone on the SAM is using it. Once they gone, it stops working till someone else is back on it.

I’ll believe you when I try the new F-15E. Otherwise 1v1 against Pantsir ain’t possible.

Probably the worst source to use. Wasnt their AI overview shown to use reddit or something? like it tell people to do things that would kill them?

It would probably have to be some form of dropping it off and having it work until you hitch it back up to move it. Not sure how that would work with the current physics but it is probably the best way.
Would also allow for ARM to be added i think.

Since the HE-VT can actually hit targets that is flying straight at 3-4km away, it takes as long as 7-10 seconds to reach them, I have a habit of keep firing until I see the hit marker lol yes that is just a waste of bullets for the most part, maybe with practise I can save enough ammos that 250 is enough to send 10 CAS back to hangar bro

Waiting for ammo pack, hopefully when it gets implemented the CAS mains don’t cry until the M247/VEAK has to be moved to 9.7 lol

VEAK’s HE-VT rounds were removed so its at 7.7 right now and should stay there. Moving the M247 is basically killing it like they did to the Otomatic. Also, ill only fire at max range if they are helis, for jets nah, i wait till they close enough or tunnel visioning. I’ll waste more ammo just tryna snipe them when shooting early.

Man israel does not even have proper spaa for top tier

Gaijin needs to get their backsides up and start implementing milti-vehicle air defense systems.

Almost all NATO air defense system can and will link into a separate radar system to increase it’s capabilities, even the Ozelot does.

We’re getting a ton of new CAS with long range capabilities, but my IR missiles won’t even lock onto a helicopter at 3km away…and my guns have a reach of 2.4km…balance my a**!

I find that the gunner sight zoom level and the bullet drop off combo actually reduce the efficiency of its AA ability against jets, I literally have to use only third person to shoot in lock range since the target lead distance is almost always full screen apart lol scope only useful against long-range helicopters.

Exactly my idea. Skysweeper would be amazing and many nations could get it.

There’s also other gun trailers that would be cool to have:

Not just that, but the SL-AMRAAM launchers (and Type 11 in the future) will have a radar to use with their missiles with instead of launching them in ARH mode and hoping they do something. Or just adding a much needed search functionality to vehicles like the Type 81 that lack their own.

I’ve 1v1’d against Pantsir and won every time, which included among the best SPAA players.
I used every thermal CAS available within its BR range.

Can the pantsir search and track GBUs? The reason why slow speed agms are not fired from stand off range is because it can be searched, tracked and intercepted with ease.

Do you have the replay link to prove such a claim? It’s hard to take your word for it.

Pantsir has difficulties locking high-altitude launched munitions, and even then that’s not removing the threat.

He isn’t, he’s dead serious. All I can say is, put the guy on ignore and enjoy the peace and quiet (cough) in the forum topics.

I agree, though they just have lots of SPAA’s^^

It just got worse.
While we all are supposed to cooperate and “complement each other’s capabilites”(bvvd) - soviets can do everything themself.
