SPYDER - General Discussion

I highly doubt it will stay at 13.0 if it ever gets those.

Speaking of, did anyone actually purchased and fielded Derpys ER in their airforce? I know missile “can be integrated” but that might be one stretch and a half for Snailjin.

probably su30mki and tejas

yeah probably 13.7 i believe, I-Derby ER wont be such a game changer

How long do you guys think it will take for gaijin to add the popeye?

Yep thats exactly what I mean. Right now spyder is 11.7 at most, given pantsir is 12.0

If elde98 is at 12.0 Spyder has no right being 11.7

Spyder would be 12.0 only when given Pythons only, as IIRC P5 and IRIS-T are about equally mid in game and it still has merit of 8 launch tubes instead 4 on Elde. Derby ER, especially in improved state likely competes if not outperforms AMRAAM-ER on NASAMS which is 12.7

That’s what I’m saying if elde 98 sits at 12.0 Spyder can’t sit at there by no means it’s better but take in consideration that it has 8 missiles on a single launcher unlike the rest excluding hq11 meaning 16 missiles unlike nasams or others that get 24-32 missiles including ammo box this also effects survivability anyways

The er would surpass it if the time to hit rule was reduced to 15 seconds rn it’ll always hit at mach 1.1 and lower for targets beyond 10 km which is not ideal

I think with the Derby ER SPYDER is on par with HQ11, just that both will be the weakest 12.7 SPAA. Elde98 is perfectly fine at 12.0 it just pantsir s1 should be 12.7. Generally I think its only soviet AA breaking the top tier AA balance. Prob IRIST but I think it still within the 12.7 range.

The pantsir will never go to 12.7 now that they added another one at 12.7
But the derby ER is slightly better than the SR for beyond 10 km they could really make it better by fixing the second pulse rules

Anyone find SPYDER’s radar more buggy than live server?

Yea Ik. Just i think pantsir S1 is def a 12.3br+ material.

I-Derby ER is literally faster than the SAMP/T because of the dual-pulse engine, i love this update, gaijin feeding us poor israeli players

Derbys got buffed real well, i wonder how kfir c10 will fare now at 13.0 woth the derby buff on live

It could be more improved with the second pulse rules but it’s pretty good now for closer ranges

Its still limited by only 4 missiles on board and their chaff vulnerability wasn’t changed, thus some medium to long range improvements won’t really affect it.

I’d love to see the video of this

Derby ER might hit if they change from 25sec to 15sec. Second pulse activate a bit too early.
