Still no competitive Italian AA?

Having a gun only AA at rank seven is atrocious. All these nations are getting their shiny new LOAL and multi-vehicle systems, while Italy is still stuck with the otomatic. Ineffective against any CAS with a brain or anyone past 2 miles of you. I find myself preferring the Osa over it sometimes.

Why can’t we get the Skyguard-ASPIDE or Draco with its advanced rounds? It’s sad that the only good vehicles Italy’s ground has at the top tier aren’t Italian. Another few things could be the Hungarian Skyranger-30 or a vehicle from the 2K12 family? Having a big paper thin target in my 12.0/13.0 lineup feels like a waste sometimes.

You are playing Italy, it’s never priority in devs eyes.
Yep, they could add Skyguard-Aspide, Polyphem or MEI at least. Honestly I thought they would implement Kub since they would model it not for Italy, but USSR.

They said they are planing to add Aster launcher (SAMP/T) for France and Italy in one of next updates, as well as S-300 for Russia, although I doubt such systems will be added without a counter in a form of ARMs.
Edit: he said Buk M3 not S-300

the turret of the draco wasnt functional, it would be no different to adding the flakpanzer 341 back to the game (which I support because then we can have the draco but regardless), either way the draco has already been passed to devs

New Italian SPAA is in development.
The only reason it wouldn’t be added this major update is that it’s not ready.

Don’t give them free excuses. The Radpanzer 90 is a good example of why the Draco should be added.
The Radpanzer 90 is nothing more than a testbed, turret was non functional and was slapped on to simulate weight.

Gotcha, that makes sense. Still want the Draco though 🤑

? its just a leopard 1a3 turret, it was completely functional

I know it’s nitpicking but it’s a Leopard 2 Prototype turret, take a glance at the gun mantlet.
The Leo 2 Proto turrets had a larger ring diameter, large enough that it would not be able to operate on a Radpanzer 90/ Leopard 1 chassis.
