Basically it’s not overperforming in terms of speed (maybe, it’s rusian after all) but in energy retention. It’s still like mach 3 at 36km IIRC, which is just pure bs.
What makes you think that now would be a good time to add ARMs?
Do you really think they would improve the situation?
Would make it worse for everyone EXCEPT rusia

I honestly can see them forcing an SPAA to react to it in some way but it would usually go for interception
Non-Pantsirs already tend to have to use multiple missiles against the same target, do you think it would be good to give them another priority target or to force them to retreat when they already have a terrible time dealing with the current situation?
Well, it’s supposed to reach up to those speeds once it breaks around that 30km threshold. Maybe in terms of aggressive manuvering maybe not, but the missile is so fast that aggressive manuevers won’t drain it’s speed as effectively unless the target is already going near mach. versus the slower variant that maxes out at only 20kms
Currently 95Ya6M is kinematically stronger (by a huge margin) than Aster 30. Just for context on what you’re trying to defend here.

Hey @KhorneFlakez1337 just want to double check something.
The slower a missle is, the more it’s going to lead it’s target to hit it correct? Compared to a faster missle that won’t lead it’s target as much since it’s able to close the gap effectively faster
Cant trust a word Gaijin say we have all seen the Skysabre report.
Nuh uh dude we don’t believe you

gaijin dev vs primary source
Hit a tennis ball at twice the speed of sound…In game struggles with a glide bomb.
Yet we have this crap to deal with all to just glaze Russian egos.

Note the wording too (plus what ASRAAM primary docs say) that it should be direct hitting the target, and in game struggles to get within 6m to proxy on a glide bomb.

Well, you just now brought up the Aster-30.
So I’m going to assume you’re saying the 57e6m-e-m is supposed to be similar in preformance to the ASter-30
or the ASter-30 is supposed to be similar in preformance to the 57e6m-e-m
one of the two.
I was simply telling him that it shouldn’t be that much of a surprise based on what the missle is supposed too do.
Oh no it shouldn’t even be close, the aster 30 should be far longer range and is currently far shorter range.
Do you have any evidence to suggest 95Ya6M should be doing mach 3.3 at 40km?

Gotcha
Not that I can currently find, but I’m assuming Gaijin is doing some bit of math to get that figure.
I don’t remember what the 57e6m hits at 20km, but 20 is it’s max range so it isn’t getting any faster.
Catastrophic error. They made it up.

So I’m assuming you can do the math then at what something going 1700m/s would hit at 40km
not without a significant number of values which aren’t publically available, which is why gaijin made it up.

Gaijin math is, interesting here.
This is how a different, 25km missile is treated when it comes to speed
Goes from Mach 3 to Mach 1 in 14km, 25s
And then takes another 65s to travel 11km.
This is purely for comparasion, as to why people are mad. Other missiles lose speed instantly, and are useless over ~7-15km, depending on the missile, while SM missile does this.

And we come to the crux of the matter, Gaijin have just projected whatever values they want onto this system to make it the best in the game (Certainly the best because it does not have to suffer from the idiotic VLS style launchers used by other nations.) It’s SACLOS, it guides itself the missile has so much shrapnel and nothing can react in time.
