Nope.
New missile with three-pulse motor.

insane.
Don’t forgot they also hurt it more as Python 5s are no longer smokeless :)

Interception range is key word there, as in target flies straight, towards launcher while taking no evasive actions. Now at what speed target travels is anyone guess, but I do suspect current Derby should intercept non evading target flying at mach 1 and at 6km alt, when launched 20km away, so missile impacts around 10-9km away from the launcher.
When accounting for target actually evading, I do suspect Derpy ER would be almost as impotent as current Derby, with NEZ I assume being below 8km. Fabled Buk M3, with claimed 70km range, so already better than MR can be played like a fiddle past 25km distance without even resorting to notch and chaff. For reference, ARH seekers usually go active around 20km away from target, giving all the time in the world to do something about it.
very accurate depiction of this update for sure. @Smin1080p_WT was it ever confirmed if the spyder will receive any fix or anything this update?

How is the IRIS-T suffering???

Everyone except Israel, Germany and Sweden gets LDIRCM tomorrow, which means they will be 99% immune to IRIS-T.
SLM is a struggle bus at this point, as if the lock range nerf wasn’t bad enough, since you have to guide the missile for so long to get a lock, all it takes to dodge it is not to be pinged by the radar. Fly low, and you defeat it.
Datalink doesn’t work either, so if a missile loses radar contact it will go dumb and fly on IOG, it doesn’t matter if the radar sees the target again, the missile has no recollection of what it was targeting previously.
Not to mention that this thing struggles to intercept cold targets because the radar (which sucks) can’t give course corrections fast enough to hit anything in the air, the missiles won’t lock onto cold targets, only fast moving missiles like Kh-38s but that’s about it.
You could put any top tier spaa even the nasam. Ldircm inmune against anything except saclos.
At least irist is good against far planes

It used to be, not anymore after Gaijin nerfed this thing hard against far away targets. We went from 9-12 km lock to 4 km in all aspects (from a seeker that can do 20 km IRL). It’s impossible for anyone to die unless they are flying high or fly in a straight line like idiots.

4km?! Nah that cant be right
Ahhh the LDIRCM issue gotcha, and yeah that one lock nerf sucks
Yup, they did that last update. The switch to IR has been shortened massively, and it’s almost entirely dependent on radar guidance.
trust me, NO. (however the update is gonna be almost in like 1 hour, but still i doubt it will get fixed unfortunately)
Yep… as suspected, not a single clue of any buffs to anything!!!
Namer 30, Namer Tsrikhon — a bug that caused 3rd person night vision to be missing without the NVD modification installed has been fixed. (Report).
I want to yell very, very bad words…
Just look at the sht they fix
Tetrarch I — engine power has been increased from 165 HP to 167.29 HP at 2850 rpm. (Report).
Shame on you CMs,
Gaijin says “Dance…” you reply “How high!”

who could have thought.
Yeah this update is another sad pass for me. I’ll take my copy paste merkava mk1 (that should’ve already been in the tech tree) not a single fix or buff for spyder at all, WHICH IS JUST WOW BRAVO!👏👏👏👏 But hey let’s focus more premium slop at 10.0 for Russia. Im really starting to get burnt out on this game with the favoritism.
