They blocked my report while I corrected it with the source IDs. T-T

The current performance of the CS/SA5 in-game is entirely unworthy of its 12.0 battle rating. As a 12.0 vehicle, the CS/SA5’s missiles cannot even engage helicopters beyond 4 km. Furthermore, the warhead explosive filler is clearly mismatched with the missile’s weight and dimensions, resulting in extremely inconsistent combat effectiveness. Additionally, the FB10A missile lacks its essential dual-mode guidance capability (command + infrared), and it also lacks image-lock anti-jamming capability. In contrast, systems like the Strela-10 or Type 81C possess corresponding image guidance capabilities. Moreover, the feeble 20g overload capacity of the FB10/FB10A missiles is the weakest among all 12.0 SPAA missiles, making them essentially ineffective against fixed-wing aircraft beyond 5 km. In summary, I believe the CS/SA5’s current level is completely unsuitable for 12.0; it belongs at 11.3, if not 11.0

As far as I can find trough English sources I simply can’t find an “official” source for the document
It was accepted briefly but unfortunately since no "official " source it was denied in the end

FB10A’s warhead mass and maximum G-load really don’t deserve the BR 12.0.Other players have provided detailed data on the CS/SA5 and FB10A. Why Gaijin consistently ignored?
