There’s no good way to determine what the radar will search and pick up or lock, as that stat isn’t shown in game, nor is it found in the datamines that I have seen.

After all adjustments they can pick up almost anything - planes, helis, munitions, drones. Radars used to struggle with munitions and drones but dev did some changes to all radars, including early ones, so now even zsu23 can lock and track small plastic drone or agm65.
Just today I was having trouble locking drones, munitions, and aircraft with IRST and radar from the Ozelot, Shillka, Gepard, M247, and ADATS. Sure the more advanced stuff can pick up munitions, but most YAK-130 bombs will come from above scan arcs of sub 12.3 radars with under 20 degrees of vertical search.
Even knowing KAB-500s are coming, and spamming lock, I often never pick up munitions on lock, and playing at higher definitions means they’re invisible until its far too late.
Is he wrong though ? The outrcy is always the loudest with Russia.
Then one of the standard excuses when another nation gets something is: But Russia did this for years, so it’s fine.
Which just shows a lot of people are not actually interested in balance, they are just mad that they don’t have the broken toy.

Just played few games with with m247, almost zero issues with locking drones, planes and helis. Only time radar failed was when drone was too close and I just shot it down anyway. You can look through my latest replays.
Didnt get to shoot down munitions because planes didnt get to drop them. But in replay I sent you can see other guy locking and shooting down anti radar missile. At this point it might be dead tho due to patches coming out.

Just return to play a little bit of 9.3, goddamn this thing is sure annoying. Only managed to kill one with M247.
Remove CAS from ground battle please.

Do you have smokes unlocked? You can pop smoke and become immune to tv/ir munitions. And you can still track and shoot targets through smoke. They wont know if you are locking them / firing because they have no rwr.
just make it like night battles, if you want CAS you have it on and you get in lobbies when they can spawn helis and aircrafts and if its off the only aerial vehicle that you will come across is a scout drone
Or even better, if you want tank only you have it on and can enjoy every 72th match without planes.
I don’t know man I lost about 10 tanks to this thing, way too busy doing my own things and not looking at the sky.
Does it also outrange the M247? I remember getting fk’d up by one when I was pulling a storm-trooper
i hate cas because i want to play fast light tanks, every time i kill someone (especially US mains) they came with an airplane that cost 500sp and they kill me , i cant stand CAS most of the time
Im speaking about your m247 experience, tanks, as you said, must do their job instead of looking at sky.
Stationary one yes but if you move it has to be 3km away from you
That should be gone as well. I had times where I flanked blind enemies but then some light pulls up this crutch and all enemies suddenly turn on me and start coming to my exact location. Even if I move, that marker will keep following me. Legit wh
I typically just get out the 20mm saber and bully them but im also getting hunted down by like 6 gepards at the same time while a yak130 is having a joyride around the map
I hate the argument against Walleyes, before the Yak-130 I saw them once every like hundred games in the bracket, it was all Bullpups. MITL and the argument against the 130 brought Walleyes back. The bracket should be decompressed, but don’t act like everyone was using them before this update. The only long range munition I saw regularly before this was the A-6’s Skippers.
