SPYDER - General Discussion

To be completely fair. I know they won’t give us P5 or I-Derby-ER for air so I’m not bothered about Sufà’s ARB performance I want it for GRB where the Popeyes and SPICE bombs shine. Also to whoever said gaijin will probably make the Popeye a maverick clone for once I’m optimistic they can’t. At least not in one crucial aspect. Popeye doesn’t use a chemical penetrator like maverick it’s essentially a bomb with a motor and a seeker. More akin to a KH38MT except it actually exists. Plus it uses the same seeker as a SPICE so insane gimbals and good target discrimination too.

The seeker in the spice is cp from what we allready have in game so its not that great

still praying the python 5’s will get fixed and spyder will get derby er’s

its still okay tho, not saying the spyder is that bad honestly

The radar is still a$$ and u cant touch planes outside 10-12km(if they have braincells)

Python MR too

The launcher is physically incapable of wielding Python MR, or any booster attached missile to begin with

Only ones capable are the MR/LR launcher, which are different systems

all i need is python 5’s fixed, they are supposed to counter DIRCM that Mi-28NM and Z-10ME have.

i dont really care about derby’s honestly, but would be awesome if it atleast got I-Derby and not the SR one

I-Derby is the I-Derby SR. That’s the designation when ground launched

Unless you mean the I-Derby ER

yea the ER, mb.

will EO lock in game help to lock on ammunition?

But it can fire I-DERBY-ER which also has a booster?

ER does not have a booster, it has a different motor.

Its already been a month since the update. Has Gaijin fixed any of the issues with this vehicle outside of the smokeless motor?

no

Just shot 5 pythons at a KA50 5 km away from me, not a single missile hit the target even its flying straight.
