The SAMP/T 'Mamba' - History, Design, Performance & Discussion

this thing is so bugged in game it’s not even funny.

Radar randomly stops working and no missile can be fired for what’s left of the game, only thing to do is J out

Not directly related to the radar system but i don’t think there is a thread for the missile itself, otherwise UK is looking to integrate aster 30 into mk41.

is it fixed ? or still not as always ?

Nope, none of it has been fixed. hopefully they’re fixed when we get dev-server this coming friday, but we’ll see. I got a slight suspicion that they’ll fix the Aster-30 missile when we finally got lateral thrust modeled or when better counterparts come that can compete with fixed Aster-30.

We’ve been exploring the possibility for a while, it will allow arsenal ships to complement the UK’s Type 45’s and may be an indication that we plan to stick with ASTER (well more likely Aquilla) for the Type 83 Destroyers/Cruisers rather than a US alternative. All options to be complemented by CAMM, CAMM-ER and CAMM-MR.

France has received it’s SAMP/T NG, so both Italy and France have their new version now.

“The 95YA6M reaches the highest speed of any SAM in the game”

Meanwhile Aster-30 still missing its Mach 5 speed:
Aster-30 should achieve a maximum speed of Mach 5 // Gaijin.net // Issues

You guys might want to leave comments under the video in the comment section. The video also mentions how the Derby-ER received the dual-pulse mechanic alongside its addition meanwhile we still haven’t gotten the promised PIF-PAF mechanic for the Aster-30 missile THREE patches later.

Stilling missing it’s everything ✌️✌️

IRL the aster is a competitor to late production MIM-104s, and in-game we get something that essentially starts air breaking after it’s first stage is burnt.

New change to Aster-30 but not sure exactly what the changes look like in-game.

Is it a variable loft mechanism?

Probably a loft change to implement a report.

Very interesting performance. Retains energy slightly better until it… stops retaining energy better than the old version. At least time to impact is superior by a second or two.

Still probably should have less drag, like a lot of missiles in this game.
