Stingers will be 'fixed'. To 13g's :))))))))

Pretty sure they pulled a source about the strela 3 and said its the igla.

from what I remember it was the igla but its also already long ago since that happened so maybe were miss remembering things

Not exactly on topic but I was wondering if anyone has any range info on the Stinger? Just got bonked by one at 5000m altitude which seems a little high considering the supposed max range is 4800m and only for low flying targets?

the higher they go the less dense the atmosphere is, so less drag

True but they’re also working against gravity going up, and open sources specifically state a 4800m ceiling so was wondering if anyone had any better documentation.

What i have noticed is that the heli mounted stingers are terrible mainly because they lack a proxy fuse which is a death sentence to any missile in warthunder due to inherent shortcoming of the games hit registration and lag, making even the most maneuverable missiles struggle, let alone a manpad with 13g. I even saw my stinger faze through an f5c entirely without detonation.
