I think the whole SPAA in the US line up needs adjusted. The m247 should go down to 8.3, the Chaparral should go to 8.7, the LAV-AD goes down to 9.3, The XM 975 goes to 10 and the Xm1069 goes to 10.7.
There is no way that the XM1069 is on the same level as the Pantsir
The Chaparral should stay at its Br. A smokeless motor and all aspect missile is highly effective despite not having a fumble limit. (Correct me if I’m wrong but I think it also has IRCCM).
The LAV-AD also needs more G’s and it would be effective. But gaijn are a bunch of idiots who are Literally being russian biased by comparing Russian manpads to nato ones. Perhaps it should go down, but it has multi-role capabilities so perhaps it’s fine where it is.
The M247 might need to go down, but from my experience it’s decent enough, even though it suffers without having any proxy rounds…
The XM1069 should stay where it is due to its ability to take on a variety of threats while having a decent little bit of armor. Although a new SPAA with the Pantsir-S1 range is definitely needed.
My post I made on how to fix the ADATS is two things. The first is making the missile launchers separate instead of one big rack. It’s stupid having to reload all of you missiles at once instead of one at a time.
The second is making the missiles less spasticated so it can actually hit things at ranges past 20ft.
Yes, it has AIM-9. Still it works quite the same as ingame manpads (strela, santal, type 93). So Chaparral is their equivalent. Again, why it should be lowered and why only it?
You clearly havent used it. It has AIM-9D seeker which doesn’t have any flare resistance unlike manpads. One flare is enough for it. I think you are thinking about the Israeli Chaparral which gets Stinger seeker.
Also it’s not agile like a manpads missile.
Also it struggles to hit close targets and it cannot hit targets in front aspect. US chaparral has a weird aiming reticle which makes it even harder to use.
