SPYDER AiO needs to receive I-Derby-ER

its mostly fixed on dev rn

China and Sweden still suffer somewhat as their new SPAAs are more or less side-grades to their SACLOS SPAAs that they replace but Israel has no side-grade to work with here which is why it deserves more attention for fixing. I know in Gaijin’s logic every nation now has received something new so there’s no reason to add any more attention with these nations but at least something comparable like the SLAM-RAAM for the US has a radar that works well, the AIM-120C-5 has more range than the I-Derby SR, the AIM-9X is the best short range missile bar none, and the Humvee trucks are easy to hide around the map; the SPYDER is 4x the size of the SLAM-RAAM but carries no advantages for its size and you’d think a truck larger than the Pantsir-S1 and IRIS-T SLM would have similar ranges to these SAMs but no it doesn’t.

Isnt the AIO basically an SR so it wouldnt be able to receive the ER missiles

It has Derby ER capability as that missile is in about the same size as regular Derby. It can’t fit Derby/Python MR variants, with additional boosters

No, you’re thinking of the “MR/LR” which use booster variants. The Derby types are as follows:

Non-Added Booster:
• The Derby (The first step)
• The I-Derby (SR/Short Range) (Improved seeker Derby)
• The I-Derby ER (Extended Range) (a two stage booster variant of the I-Derby, known for double the range from aircraft and on the ground)

Added Booster:
• The I-Derby MR (Medium Range) (an I-Derby with an extended range booster on the back, uses a new launcher)
• And the I-Derby LR (Long Range) (likely an I-Derby ER with the same extended range booster on the back and new launcher)

that means decompression. iris t isnt powercrept by this lol, irist t SLM would still outrange and be more reliable than I Derby ER.

like ho do you expect gaijin could balanced things like iris t, tan sam and spyder right now? spyder could get an easy boost with I derby ER, but the rest? 15 kilometers of realistic range, against buk and samp-t(despite how dubious the implementation is)?
