guys I got to admit, we are cooked. the spyder can’t kill anything outside 6km {pretty much everything I faced was outside 10+) the last few hours have been nothing but sadness, merkava mk4 not being able to so much as eat one apfsds shell or the fact my APS system never worked once from guided munitions from helis and the greatest of all the 65 ton namer just getting dawged on by everything.

i was praying the spyder would bring me baclk to this game in hopes the israel would have a fighting chance in at least the air spectrum but I guess I was miserably wrong. gaijin should be torched for the fact that russia got buffs to a missile that doesn’t even exist. plus we got arena aps for russia when we don’t even have the slightest fix for the merkava mk4 aps in the last 9 MONTHS, again 9 MONTHS

There’s more ofc, Pantsir buffs, not adding SPICE 250 not giving Israel P4 when fox 3s came out, LDIRCM basically being an untouchable shield to only Russian and Chinese helis (have fun in Sim) no Lahat missile, the Spike being useless 60% of the time especially against Russians. I could go on. I still do well with Israel despite Gaijins obvious BS. But dammit we needed an AA I could deal with everything else but Israel literally had no top tier AA and when they finally give us one they make it unusable. The Roland 1 is more reliable than SPYDER.

NERA underperforming and SLERA not being modeled on any tank.

While I do think it sucks they wont give the Israelis their proper ive found Merkavas to be a perfectly resilient tank as is. it only takes a little imagination to use it properly. A small ridge to increase the angle on your hull and turret to auto bounce angles, or moving back and forth laterally along a ridge to make enemies hit the large vestigial armor blocks on the turret and do nothing. The Merks don’t necessarily “NEED” their proper armor it would just be nice. Now the SPYDER? That was needed, badly and so far theyve butchered it.

I’m sure countries looking to buy those things test them out in WT before deciding lmao.
yet somehow still managed to mess it up pretty bad
I guess its worth pointing this out here, but I’ve made a report about the AIO missing it’s -25° depression for scanning around a week ago

IRIS-T works fine, except for the bug that sometimes makes the radar lay flat and rotate like a cement truck. The missiles and tracking works which is the most important. Spyder is a mess that can barely kill an attack drone.
have you seen the flightpath?
If you mean vertical launch → level to horizontal → start lofting, its pretty damn finished compared to mess Spyderp is.
to clarify, yes the spyder is butchered, but not once i had an issue with shooting down the drones that spawn within 15 kilometers in the sky
Yes, because they’re so slow and clumsy that even IOG itself would be enough to take them down.
Again I was saying it’s unlikely that Rafael would take issue with how their product is represented in game given how most of it is speculation. I’m not even the person who brought it up so I don’t know why you have singled me out
Anyone with at least two braincells can tell that what we have in game is in no way even remotely accurate to one of the most modern anti air systems.

Wow, you killed a 100km/h straigh fly drone ? So the Spyder is OK and doesn’t have bug … Are you serious ?!
i quite literally said they butchered the spyder
“spyder is a mess that can barely kill an attack drone” was the part i disagreed with
