Hiya,
Anyone run SPAA at top tier and have any good tricks / tips for countering CAS jets? I have Pantsir, 2S6 CS/SA5 and TOR-M1 as my best SPAA and I do relatively well against lower skill pilots who tend to fly higher and not move around, but I’m having a huge difficulty with high skill pilots who either;
Fly really really low at tree top (can get a few gun kills, my skill is improving but hit & miss forgive pun)
but the really big issue I’m having lately is the new jets with Fire and Forget (?) IR(?) missiles that they spam 5-6 at around 8 KM or more and then dive to the tree top, these missiles swarm me and my team and i can shoot down maybe 2 or 3 but one will definitely get through. The jet seems to operate here with impunity and there appears to be no effective counter. Even with SA5 and AHEAD ammo i cannot effectively lock all the missiles quick enough.
Is this a skill issue with me or am I not using the radar lock properly? Is this a case of “Find cover and hide” until he pops up again or runs out of ammo? Is countering him at this point not possible until we finish the cat & mouse game?
Anyone have any tips? thanks :3
