SPYDER - General Discussion

Right now, Spyder missiles are easier to shoot off an airplane. Than Spyder, shoot down the missiles that the airplane fired at you, if it fired 4 x-38s at you, you die.
Your missiles will literally miss

That study has its own limitations. When it gets closer the DIRCM will practically cover most of the screen and with flares it will practically have a white screen. Has to basically rely of IOG to sustain the flight.

ah, the very finished “weapons//short”
theres no point in this discussion anymore

good day.

I have made a bug report for the Python 5’s ability to withstand DIRCM

I’ll post about it when it comes out in the game. We’ll laugh together).

I have personally seen the files, the Spyder uses the “Python_5” and “Derby” (not I-Derby, it is the original air launched version)

You’re best

The problem is that it’s a derby-it’s bad either way).

So we should whine for the ER version, maybe the developer will take pity)

Shouldn’t the Phyton 5 have a very smoke reduced motor. As you can see in this video from a test of the missile on the tejas.

Yes but gaijin doesnt want to give missiles smokeless motors, even on platforms that have quite literally no armor and rely on stealth to survive

Did you already tried to bug Report it for the spyder especially?

Theres reports for the air launched versions, youre free to make a report for spyder if you want to tho

I will give it a shot anyways. Can you send me what you gathered for your previous bug report of the smokeless motor?

i havent made any (that i recall)
videos from official sources and any brochures should be fine though

There might be some information here
But most likely as usual… They’ll accept it, but they won’t put it in the game.

Thanks have found a lot of videos even from the spyder aio firing phyton 5 with no smoke trail so hope they do fix it. But my hope is not high with current state of everything

Dev updated, not noticing any changes to Spyder, how about you guys?

spyder remains gimped, no updates except labels, button icons etc.

no changes, only addition seems to be danish f35 squadron vehicle
