Split Tracked Rapier into a early/late standard (the hitile is born!)

Cheers for linking it, I was meaning to but er, yeah IRL has hit me like a brick today.

Dont know if I will be keeping up to date with potential updates on this 1 chaps. If anyone sees anything from the devs do throw it over in here for those hyped on the idea.

A missile SPAA is desperately needed for Britain at 9.3/9.7 because of helis. At this BR, helicopters outrange and outmanoeuvre any radar SPAA that does not have proxy fuse, and a less capable Rapier variant would be PERFECT to fit this role.

seeing as there isn’t a better place, the new firing sounds is amasing!

Yup, was meaning to update this, the sounds great, the lack of smoke on launch is great, the missile seems to be way more responsive/sitting on the scope better.

Deffo looking forward to using it.

It sounding cool does kind of make me sad we lack a variety of Fwomf sounds.

and the pre-launch scream, we have it for the BMP-2Ms Kornets iirc, but the Strela Scream is something i’d want

I legit can’t look at the strela without thinking of the film behind enemy lines where 2 of its missiles basically chases a jet fighter for about a year turning and re engaging having missed to then cut the plane in half with what i can only describe as shotgun pod tips, the scene just screams Holywood exaggeration lol

Still prefer the launching sound of the ZT3A2, but this is amazing too

Well, heres hoping the extended dev server means we might still see this come through? ^^

A man can dream!

@Smin1080p_WT any news on this?

I guess no news then.

(if gaijin can use sad kitten images, so can I!)
