SPYDER - General Discussion

Whats the troll?

IF search pattern means the speed that the antenna “rotates” then AI is getting a significantly faster radar

It’s not even mechanical
But it has a mechanical rotation in game for absolutely no reason or evidence or logical sense

“rotates”

Noticed that. But i was pointing it out regardless because it’s bs

Spyder AIO is listed as “top tier” airfield defense SAM for upcoming Nuclear Thunder rerun, curious if it will use Pythons or Derbys ER.

Redfor answer will be HQ11, if datamine is correct. So probably Derbys to match ARH missile.

It’s range is set to 40 only the derby ER has that range

I would say it’ll be a cancer after the IRST just because of that simple change
That’s if they don’t add separate radars to give data to the missile

Highly unlikely for additional radars. Then as Nut Thunder map is still somewhat vertically varied, only bravest or yet to be enlightened will fly higher than 100m. Derby ER with its second stage probably will be unexpected nasty.

Sure, ARH missiles launched by SAMs (Spyder, HQ11, SAMP-T, Buk M3) will/should be notchable as usual, Pantsirs and ITOs will be the obstacle you don’t want to get too close. Ordnance interception is still on and to my understanding of priority system playing bait or saturation attacks will be needed.

Pretty sure the Engine Can’t handle 1 vehicle having more than 1 radar. Thats why we see the SPYDER have such a bad Radar and scan rate. Unless this has changed, I last played the Spyder constantly when it first dropped.

As true as gaijin saying exMHR is physically impossible

ships do this already
