SPYDER - General Discussion

Just give it P5 MR then, basically an IRIST SLM for ISR (and give it HOJ for the love of God)

Ofc ASTER 30 has a range of over 100km and the Buk can reach 70 so I don’t see 80 as an issue

then that would be the SPY and not SPY"DER"

Don’t the smaller end systems like SR only have pythons tho?

no they all have derby’s, the SR one just has an I-Derby SR and Python 5 SR

They are disconnected systems so another launcher with the Derbys would make up the “DER”

Fair enough

Iron Dome would be nice, or even Davids Sling

We dont know the capability of iron dome against aircrafts, it would probably only be effective against munitions, and i dont know about david’s sling, you cant tow the launcher so you would have to stay in one place

I care more about intercepting munitions than the launching planes, let the pilots seethe, if they cant hit anything then they are wasting space up there

honestly, true, i wanna intercept every single kh-38 i see

The Tamir has a range of 70km as a publicly available figure and a proximity fuse, we dont know the overload or speed tho

in the current war there we videos of its insane maneuverability

I would wager around 50g min

40-50G’s yeah

The issue is the multimode guidance for both systems

Gaijin probably won’t add it

(side note for the SPYDER gaijin should give the I-Derby SR and ER the reinforced seeker like the MICA has, or GNSS guidance as I’m fairly sure they have it. The SR and ER share a seeker, which itself is an upgraded version of the original with more resistance to chaff and ECM)

Nothing suggests Derbys have GNSS

Fair, I thought I read it somewhere but the enhanced seeker would more than suffice
