it is optical/thermal theres no radar on the machbet, try out the hovet again in a battle and youll see significantly worse performance is with the tracking radar
It is even worse than that: I had the derby miss an Orion Strike UCAV that went “cold” at 13km. It just failed to catch up with it.
How it got to this? I hit it twice but without doing any critical or severe damage so it just turned around and landed at the airfield. After it was at 12 or 13km my derby missiles failed to catch up with it.

So it does seem I-Derby SRs straight do not go pitbul when they should. 120Cs for the CLAWS are going active the moment they are off the rail yet in my testing I have I-Derby SRs going active at sub 2 mile distances meaning that with scuffed radar atm make these basically unusable

Python 5 FOV isnt restricting either. Its stupidly easy to flare. If you look in sensor view the FOV never changes for P5 but IRIS-T or 9X becomes so thin you can’t even see them. So basically we’ve got the choice of a weaker stinger or a No radar Fox 3. All while our radar doesnt work and we are the size of a house.

Yeah I was in. Match earlier and watched a rafale rlare my P5 with no manuvers. Just two flares and the P5 went for them. It has 0 IRCCM

Quite literally the only thing that work on this thing are it’s ability to spawn in and its ability to die. We have officially passed lazy or negligent, even past bias. This is IMHO a concerted effort to make sure Israel gets nothing worth having in game. I think I wouldve rather has No SPAA than them give me one that i ground out in 2 days only to find it literally does not work

ya its strange that the spyder is the only new AA this broken. beyond the multiple radars theres nothing new or unique on the spyder that should result in it being in such a sorry state. it seems genuinely deliberate at this point.
Heard a rumor that despite the SPYDER having multiple radars, and multiple radars being visible on the radar screen, that it only functions as a single 360 scan radar in tact view. Can anyone confirm?
Can confirm. If you enter gunner sight you can only see 1 sweep every 5-6 seconds or so and in sensor it’s only one slow beam

The radar screen doesnt match at all I would post pictures of video but I am an Xbox player so that sort of thing is difficult to provide outside of very low quality phone camera footage from my TV screen
Is there a report out?
At least one to my knowledge. Gaijin doesnt care tho. If they did they would’ve fixed it already instead of hiding the fact it doesnt work under a visual that doesnt show the real effect

Anybody else noticed that any round with explosive mass, like HEAT or HE gets multiplied when it hits the radar? The explosion seems much bigger than when it hits the radar of other SPAAs like the Pantsir.

I had the Same issue. My phyton 5 got very easily flared by a Helicopter. But at the Same time a Stinger that a teammate fired ignored all flared as it should bei. Does someone know If there is already a Bug Report about this issue
