At least that’s a more pressing matter than the others, at least imo lol

They did later confirm that ASEAN going to China was rolled back. There was a Leopard 2A4 from Singapore under China found in the files, but it’s not there anymore.
Hopefully it goes to Japan or something.

AA discusion is much more important than many other common topics because it really is a mess right now

though honestly if they just gave launch warnings for the pantsir like literaly every other SACLOS SAM at top tier it wouldnt be that bad
Ehhh, I see what you mean but… I think we should be lifting the many up, not dragging the few down lol.
It’s regrettable that we find ourselves in such a poor state of balance, and even more so that it’s persisted for so long, but we should be aiming for equality of strength, not equality of weakness.

It’s funny, I don’t mind CAS too much. I actually enjoy both playing it and countering it. The problem is right now it’s wayyy too simple and not nearly dynamic enough.
CAP should be cheaper, shooting down planes should be more rewarding, and we should get better SPAA.

I agree nerfing all to be equal isnt ideal, but it would be a pretty simple addition that would help make it less unbalanced
I just think (And from the Q&A, Gaijin also seem to think) that top tier AA is in such a bad place right now, and CAS in such a strong place, that any sort of boon given to CAS right now is just… kicking a man whilst he’s down lol.
I cannot in good faith, look an ADATS player in his teary eyes, and tell him ‘Hey buddy, hold this HARM for me’ lmao. I don’t think its use case against Pantsir, will offer much consolation when he has to face it.

I agree, but based on the percentage of aa that are pantsir it would probably be about half of ARM kills would be on them
I’ve seen a lot of people talk about Yurofighter’s load out, but not much at all on Rafale.
What sort of A2A / A2G is that thing packing?
7 AASM most likely for a2g
and 6 micas for any f.3R or lower variants

from a quick google search not much that would be in game besides paveways unless I missed something or if they add anti ship missiles
I think they are too long of range to be added, at least after the pushback with grom
The hobs capability with AASM is what excites me

W/ the S-75 SAM site minibase added last update, and the LD-10+SEAD gamemode in the update before that, plus all the other SAM site visual assets put in the files earlier this year,
I believe the answer given in the covert disclosures relates to the answers given abt anti-radiation near update Sky Guardians, to the effect that the devs don’t consider them useful against player-controlled surface to air missile systems, but that doesn’t prevent them being added for use against appropriate targets controlled by the computer in Air modes.

I dont know why they wouldnt be useful against player controlled SAMs though, because most just sit there with their radar on in spawn
Afaik people should be able to just turn off their radars and move out of the way. But I don’t have a lot of knowledge about HARMs. Also IDK if the singular-vehicle SPAA systems we have now are powerful enough to get a reliable lock with the HARM.
they should against older ones, irrc more recent HARM models also have millimeter radar to track stuff that turned off radar and started moving
and shouldnt have a problem getting lock, because it should be able to be designated roughly where the radar is by aircraft RWR
