SPYDER - General Discussion

I doubt maneuverability compensates for the game’s server shortcomings. Need I remind you how Starstrikes and impact Stingers pass right through aircraft?

This year impossible.

David Sling its at the same level or even slighly better than the patriot so its gonna take a lot of time to come.

Barak MX should be the next spaa Israel gets, but im kinda worried bc the barak its a 3 platform system, it needs the rada, the launcher, and the fire control vehicle, something we dont have ingame yet.

Like NASAMS? Like CLAWS?..

Idk about the NASAMS, but the claws at least they made the radar a trailer for the control vehicle.

In case of the Barak, I see it difficult or imposible to the control vehicle to trailer the radar vehicle, both are really big.

Radar station

Maybe they can switch to another type of control-radar station or a trailer of a smaller radar, but would be unrealistic

We have this one. It is generator + radar

And this is contorl vehicle.

BVV_d said that we have FCS separately somewhere behind the map as a game feature.

It’s not like Japan was in a better position than Israel when it comes to AA, so I don’t get the point you are trying to make.

im not saying that its bad about the fact that japan is getting a new AA, i meant that israel has the worst AA and has a low chance of actually getting a new one. like SPYDER LR/MR and Barak MX.

maybe a Python 5 fix? it has smoke (Again) and its wiggle is still there, I hate it bro, Uninstalled and they seem like maybe they made the game better (Fixed Merkava APS) but still cant fix the smallest bugs with the missiles. Examples such as Derby not having seeker head?? Python wiggle, Seekerhead looking in the wrong direction, god pmo bro

true… all i ever want is python 5 fix because i cant even shoot down a drone from 1 KM…

Yeah…

New EEUU/sweden spaa has ER version missile, I bet spyder shall get the er version too for the derby

Thanks for the heads up!

you know whats crazy guys? the fact that the F-15SG for israel got delayed, we would not recive a new jet soo… in simple terms we are screwed we would remain as the only nation in game without a HIGH PERFORMING TOP TIER (14.3-14.X) JET WITH AN AESA RADAR until next year!!! and if we are lucky maybe just MAYBE IN MARCH WE RECIVE SOMETHING because seeing the threatment that israel is reciving right now they absolutely dont care about israel anymore, atleast if they are not gonna add anything new, they just need to throw in the Python-4 for every platform that should have it.

I’m so incredibly tired of the useless “Filler” vehicles being added to the Israeli tree—like the M113/Bardelas and the Merkava Mk.1.

These additions are NOT the source of the pain vibrantly visible. The source is the lack of Light tanks and overall defensive vehicles like SPAAs
One Imposter here is the god darn dangit pure suffer NAMERS.

The Namers “role”

The Namer is a PURE AMMO RACK MAGNET.

It’s 1.5 times heavier than a BUK, and the claim of being the “World’s most protected IFV” is clearly an inside joke among the developers. Sure it can take .50 Calsif you ignore the highly exposed ammo racks, that is.

  • Slow
  • Massively Over-BR’ed

The Irony of the Variants

The Namer 30 actually has way better combat stats, even though it’s the technically inferior vehicle! The Tsr version is just impossible for the enemy to miss the ammo.

Frankly, I think maining Israel has given me a massive skill boost. We have to constantly fight against enemies who have vastly superior and much better-balanced lineups.

Continuation …


SPYDER AIO: The Only AA That Detects Spiders🕷️ and Misses Planes🛩️

If you think the ground vehicles are bad, let’s talk about the SPYDER AIO’s missiles.

The Python 5 and the Derby are just massively underperforming. The Python 5 should be a monster, but it feels like it’s pulling half the Gs it should, draining energy on wobbles and just giving up after a short range.

But the real kicker is the Derby. Seriously, I’m convinced the Derby has a hard-coded backend function designed specifically to find the optimal trajectory to miss the target. It lofts, it over-leads, it just flies straight to where the plane was five seconds ago. It’s ridiculous.


The Schizophrenic TWS Radar 📡

Then you have the radar. Holy cow.

It’s a huge, un-hiddable monstrosity that sticks out like a massive sore thumb on the battlefield. Even worse, it’s a schizophrenic TWS radar that constantly hallucinates targets!

I’m not even joking, I’ve had totally immersion-breaking scenes on the radar screen. You turn it on and it shows a enemy helicopter approaching at near Mach 2! You think, “Okay, maybe it confused a missile for a heli,” but nope I’m not dead then what was it… it’s something else…um… it’s called schizophrenia. It’s just one more incredible feature you get with the SPYDER: you always have to worry and see a phantom target closing on you, your life flashing before your eyes, just because the radar felt like it but next time at least you’ve learned not to trust anyone in-life specially your radar.

One dude even said it was an “incredibly good radar that can detect wind and literal spiders falling onto the sensors when under a tree.” That is exactly how it feels—useless against real threats, but obsessed with finding imaginary ones.

BTW putting this much effort into writing a post this long made me realize there might be a server-side issue that I’m not aware of, if not lemme know… the forum keeps making me reload and refresh the page in-between my edits and it and makes me redo and rewrite several times.
at last if not obvious I am insanely obsessed with text formatting lemme know if it bothered yall!
