Does the US even operate this?
Yes, the US is the main operator of NASAMS. By the way, there is also Australian and Canadian NASAMS with such a towed radar
This is NOMADS. Uses some components from NASAMS, but not all. This also was unveiled in 2024. Doesn’t seem to be the exact same as the NASAMS, but a derivative (similar to F-2 and F-16)
So… Again, towed radar/multi vehicle SAMs arent currently a thing, but are likely being developed. SL-AMRAAM Humvee would be my guess
Secondly, does the US operate the NASAM linked above which seems to be only employed by the Netherlands at the moment, meaning it would go to France and not America or by Norway which would mean it would go to Sweden
NASAMS has many different vehicles, there is a Humvee with 4 AIM-120, quite old. There is a photo of a Humvee driving with a Radar trailer. The Gaijin introduced much stranger vehicles than this.
It has a 6km front aspect lock on jets, Gaijins justification is that you can shoot farther with the photo-contrast mode, but that only works if there are zero clouds and the target is high enough that the ground isn’t in the seeker FOV (so good luck locking a heli with HIRSS hiding in the tree line). IRL it can use an optical tracker
Spoiler
to fire the missile on IOG to an intercept point where the IR seeker takes over giving it a max range of about 14km. as it is in game its a slightly better Strela.
Yes, NASAMS is a US operator and there are many sources that they are on duty in Washington. But there is also Canada and Australia, and as we know, Australia and Canada are part of the US nation in the game.
And what is being developed now, you can forget about it, because by the time it comes out, our game will be closed. It is not serious to wait for something that can come out. Lord, at least add SHORAD. Anything.
Yes but none of this would’ve come in the last 6 years, as you said. Assuming its the same radar, its an AESA Slinging AMRAAM launcher. Fox 3s are relatively new to the game, and we have no true functioning AESA.
No they aren’t
If anything they have a greater presence in Britain at the moment. Look at the ADATS and F-111C.
Neither nation has anything to do with the US in game
But does that include the NASAMS3 or the NOMAD?
Again… I dont see why this is a US only problem?
Heck Britain has only just gotten the Rapier which was Britains principle SAM system for the last 50 years and is only relatively recently been replaced by SkySabre.

We have a KH-38MT in the game, which was only a mock-up at an exhibition in real life. It wouldn’t be hard to add a radar trailer. Besides, we already have trailers in the game.
Well yes M1A1 AIM.
One trailer vehicle, 2-3 years ago. They haven’t touched trailers with a 10 foot pole since, as if they did then many other vehicles could be added or implemented. Alas, they aren’t.
Also, using the KH-38MT is pretty meh reasoning. Two wrongs don’t make a right.
And that’s it. From either nation?
Meanwhile Britian has
Canada:
Skink
ADATS
3.7 RAM
HMCS Terra Nova
HMCS Brantford
HMCS Haida
RAM II
Germany Operates 2 different Canadian Leopards
And Australia Britain operates
A.C.IV.
Centurion Mk5
Matilida Hedgehog
A.C.1
Beaufort
Beaufighter
Wrraway
Boomerrang x2
HMAS Arrow
HMAS Nepal
HMAS Tobruk
HMAS Fremantle
F-111C
So again. The Australia and Canada are NOT Sub-TTs of the US.
The current prescedent (ADATS) would actually be for Britain to get the Canadian or Australian NASAM if it wasnt for the fact we have the Skysabre

Here you can introduce both the Avenger and the AN/MPQ-64 Sentinel trailer and NASAMS and SLAMRAAM and other air defense systems, both for the US and for Israel. But I understand you. It would be better for you if we had nations without air defense in the game. I don’t understand your point of view, but I accept it. Thank you.
Well, we also have the Greek Apache for the US. So there are no obstacles to adding this or that air defense system. You just don’t want the US and Israel to get SPAA.
Please state where I said that?
At the moment this thread has been nothing but
“US Suffers and everyone else has better therefore US must get somethign first because I said so.”
Even though the US isnt even the weakest top tier SAM at the moment
You have simply been running an agenda of Gaijin is abusing the US because they leaked the SLS and therefore no other nation must be getting something
Wait, there is a EU nation? Have i missed an update like that?
Yep, Britain, Italy, France, Germany, Sweden are all its Sub-TTs
I wrote this based on the news that Europe and China will soon receive a new SPAA.
Again, is there a Europe TT? Have i trully missed something?
