TOR M1 should be removed from the Chinese tree and replaced by a domestic option

I’d prefer that if Tor-M1 is removed it is replaced by a in-service Chinese system. Most likely HQ-17A given the capability required at top tier, but adding PGZ-09 or HQ-7B as intermediaries wouldn’t be bad either.

China getting the VT-4A1 has opened the door to many, many vehicles built for export, as well.
We could also get the CS/AA5 SPAAG turret, which is currently in service. All of its parts are available in-game currently.

(Albeit it appears that its missiles might be improved over the PGZ04A, which is good as that would make it more capable at a higher BR).

I was kinda curious why they added the Tor-M1 to the chinese tree, since they acctually have an own version of this vehicle, the HQ-17

the second thing that wondered was why the russians got the Pantsir, and not the Tor-M1.

Since if the russians got the Pantsir, i think the chinese should have get the FK-2000 instead of the tor or otherside around? since these are like the counterparts~ same vehicle ranks~ same functions~?

Tor-M1 to HQ-17
or
Pantsir to FK-2000

Exactly. I was extremely angry when I saw that they’re adding the TOR to China.

I don’t like playing SPAA if its not effective in anti tank roles as well, would not support the removal of TOR M1 from the game but it can be foldered behind another vehicle as a backup and an option like the FK2000 can be put in place

It has improved version of AK-630, with more ammunition types. Better than the base Russian gun and certainly better than the shit known as GSh-6-30.

The HQ 17B is a wheeled version of the HQ17, with 4 rather than 8 launchers but the rest is similar, perhaps a better AESA radar? (IDK)

Ito-90M = Crotale NG
HQ-7 = R.440 Crotale
R.440 Crotale ≠ Crotale NG
it even not equiped with search radar :(

What about HQ-7B? Does it get better missiles?
Even though it lacks search radar still it can be a good spaa for 10.0 BR

The missile should have longer range and mobility, could use laser, optical and radar to attack 3 enemies like TOR could do in game, and the based vehicle is upgraded to a 6x6 platform

I don’t quite know about HQ-7 since Gaijing thinks a new tank is too much work, they will simply change the name of TOR-M1 to HQ17, making it no better. The HQ17A would be much more interesting with a second gen AESA radar, which should be able to lock onto more targets at once, but has like 6 missiles at once, and has to reload after firing.
