Spike NLOS and Saraph

Since this update aims to improve helicopters to give them a fighting chance against new anti-aircraft systems, I suggest equipping the Saraph with Spike NLOS, with the same quantity of 8 units. In terms of characteristics, they are almost equivalent to the CM-502KG, being similarly slow and long-range.

Without bein able to track and lock on enemy units after launch because that ability is too op.

In fact SPIKE-ER would be much better choice.

Why, the Spike NLOS is the same, only it flies much farther and, of course, without the new type of guidance.

KH38 be like

Spike-ER2 would also be a good option. No clue what helis, if any carry it, but it does seem to be compatible with any helicopter that carries the regular Spike-ER.

well at least we have a passed issue for SPIKEs on saraph

There is no need

Engagement distances will still be within 8km

Also Spike NLOS is limited to ~8km lock-on range with the seeker regardless so it would be useless to have more range without NLOS capabilities

It’s already better than Hellfire.

Is there any issue about saraph lack of SPIKE ER2?

Yes, it has been accepted

ER2 is compatible with all ER launchers

I think advocating for the ER2 instead of the NLOS would be smarter since it would require very little work from Gaijin and it would be something for multiple nations
