SPYDER - General Discussion

When i say manuvering i mean trying to avoid the missile when its about to hit by out Gs it cuz it doesnt have speed to pull
Ofc im not talking about notching or going cold
Derby lose its speed almkst like the mica but have mid to bad range with mid agility thats why it bad
It not the worst at smt but its far from the best at smt

Cuz it perfect for furrball

It will be a big diffrance wdym we talking about 1/5 more thrust or more cuz it should have more energy then p4 and currently it have less
And yea less drag should be implemented as well
Like there is no way derby has only 30km of effective range at air lunched
Thats less then aim 7

Still waiting for approvement of my bug report… Community Bug Reporting System

By your own metrics of what is “effective air range”, Sparrows barely have 15km. 30km requires the same kind of paid actor as you need for 40km+ Derby shots.

You mean those extra 20% thrust was added as Gaijin went out of their way to buff the missile with the rework, as initial state of the missile with two stage motor had about as much extra thrust as C5 has over A/B AMRAAMs.

Then for actual thrust and air drag values, unless you have the most sekrit of dokuments AND you meet correctly minded moderator AND someone at snail feels EXTRA productive today, its not going happen. At best Derpy ER may or may not be added as “next step” missile. Now witness Gaijin add them + P4 to Sufa to drive power creep forward

We talking high alt bvr so u underrastmate aim 7
And 10km is a big diffrnace
And u know what even 30km is a stretch for the derby so u right effective range is about 20-25km

I dont remember they buffed the derby thrust but anyway im talking about now
Derby is missing thrust

Iaf clearly said derby has more thrust then p4 so no problem here but u right gaijin wont change it cuz israel has anti bias
Same for p4 we wont see it soon and even if we will they gonna butcher it

I would take that only because I want the sufa so very badly, popeyes too.


guys…wtf is 47k sl for fkn repair kit… WTH IS THAT
i mean i can afford it but… its looks so wrong

The total SL and RP cost of modifications is the same for all vehicles on the same BR. Since SPYDER only has 2 modifications at tier I, each single modification will be twice as costly as if it was another vehicle on the same BR with 4 tier I modifications.

thats wild tbh

Anything they can do to get you to spend a few dollars more for premium. I agree man the amount of grinding you gotta do is harsh for sure in top tier

Any accepted reports for the spyder yet? Other than the smokeless motor of course which shouldn’t even have been of question, does anyone know if they fixed p5 missile wobble?

i have a strong feeling for when they fix the spyder to how it should be, there will be a parade
i know i will be celebrating

I think it accepted but not fixed

If they will which i dout
They gonna uptier it so it wont be as good

Ive looked as early as this morning, so far nothing.

It won’t matter, 12.0 is always 13.0 anyway. If they move up SPYDER from what is already top BR for ground then they move up CAS too (it makes sense) which means that for most players things get better, for Israeli mains who would now have an AA that works? Its still leagues better

Le me explain
In the future the gonna add better sams and munitions and probably makes the br higher for some stuff
And they will make the spyder the same br as s300 or smt

I wouldn’t put it past them, but I think it would be better if they added a new class of SPAA. s300 is a medium range solution like Patriot. It shouldn’t be on the field with our tanks. Story for another time however. Tbf if they buffed SPYDER with I-Derby-ER and fixed it’s three glaring issues rn, I wouldn’t care. They could boost GRB max to 13.0 and make SPYDER the highest BR out of all of them. It would be that good. It has a flawless combat record in both indo-pak and the 12 day war. The fact we are sitting here begging for crumbs to fix a proven world class AA is ridiculous. I’m genuinely worried they’ll make Patriot useless just because Israel gets them too, to say nothing of David’s sling. All SPYDER needs right now, are fixes we don’t need new missiles (though this would be nice) or new features. We just need three things

We need the radar to actually work, the idea of 4 AESAs performing worse than a Gepard and dropping locks like an F4 phantom is ridiculous. We know gaijin can and has modeled planar ESA radars before since we’ve had the Pantsir for years.

We need the Python to actually fly like a missile and not like a dyslexic paper airplane in a hurricane. (DL would also be wonderful there is more than enough evidence)

And we need the Derby we have to actually go active

Fix all of this and SPYDER functions just fine after which I will stop complaining on the spot.

EDIT: oh right I almost forgot this might be a me thing but my DL for the Derby SR is not working resulting in me only being able to fire on one target with them. Asking around if I’m alone here

Yea s300 was an exagertion but u got my point
I dont belive gaijin will let the spyder be at the top of the food chain

Damn this thing is utter garbage. Anything with FnF missiles can just do whatever they want as long as they stay 8-10km away from you.

Both Derby and Python 5 feel inconsistent as hell.
