This spaa suffers severely at 9.7 unlike the American chaparral which is at 9.0 the Israeli chaparral can’t achieve kills what so ever at 9.7 br because anti airs at that BR get radars alongside IR guided missiles this makes it really hard for the chaparral to destroy any air before you see the target there’s a missile already going towards it from another spaa with radar searching capabilities lowering it’s br and rank so it matches the American chaparral would be much appreciated bc at rank VII most of the vehicles are at 11.3 br imp.chaparral being at that BR/rank makes it very hard to use and it’s place could be filled with something like magach marksman but modernized with AHEAD shells at 9.7 - 10.0 br or even increase the machbet’s br to 9.7 to replace it . a captured strela is also an option
The Israeli one does get irccm and better range well worth a BR increase, whether it is worth more than one I will be frank I think it might just do either and since u have a lineup at 9.7 why not.
Well all honesty here, the Imp. Chaparral is a bit ass due to it not having radar and whatnot, although it does have a reasonable BR increase due to the IRCCM. The issue the TT faces is that it doesn’t have anything after the Chaparral till the 12.7 Spyder and it is useless during the 10.0 - 12.0 grind. Not having a radar is a pain but there’s nothing we can do about it. What we need is something that can actually do something between the Chaparral and Spyder.
Machbet at 9.3 has irccm and it performs much better.
I’m pretty sure the us version also has irccm at 9.0
You can’t use it in 9.7 lineup the chaparral is rank 7 it sits with 11.3 vehicles once you unlock that rank why would you want to research 300k rp to get the chaparral when you can get merkava mk3 or namer 30 for much less so not only it’s useless in it’s rank you can’t even use it in 9.7 lineup due to its place in the tech tree besides that there are far better options for it’s place
Also it could at least be lowered to 9.3 if not 9.0 and rank 6 instead of rank 7
I’d say the best way to solve this is to get it down one rank, but before that we need to fill the spot at the 11.3 lineup.
It cannot be used in a 9.7 lineup due to its place in the tech tree and literally everyone gets irccm at 9.7 alongside their radars but Israel and usa the only two that don’t get radar combined with missiles
As I said in the post it’s still useless at 9.7 bc you’re the only one without a radar any air would be destroyed by the time you hear it or see it
It’s only use is to shoot down close up drones because allies radar can’t pick it up
That’s what I was saying it has no problem going down to 9.3 br bc the zsu 4m4 (the one with the IR missiles) already sits there with it’s radar too and there’s also type 93 at that BR which is the same as the chaparral and I also suggested to put a captured strela in there or the HSVD/ASAMS
I also mentioned a modernized magach marksman
Either that or put magach marksman at 8.7 and move mach bet to 9.7 while bringing the chaparral to 9.3
But that still would leave the gap between 9.7 and 12.7 but tbh with the infantry on the way gaijin wouldn’t care about this now
