US Patriot System

Kh-31 is only large compared to other missiles in the game but it is not very large compared to the targets that patriot is designed for:

TBMs like Iskander and Tochka

Large hypersonic missiles like Kinzhal

Theses are not weapons that are launched in extreme numbers like we see Kh-38 used in game

Gng, it seems like u dont read my posts at all, do your research on PAC-3 MSE first then come back with valid arguments and not agenda

The meta favors the Pantsir, Patriot wouldnt be anywhere near the same capability

Not really sure what agenda you think i have here. I think patriot is very cool, i just dont think it would be very good in the game with the current meta. Maybe with a new game mode or something but not with how small the maps are now

And yet America just needs something better in the first place everyone else has Missiles that can reach past 10km with relative ease but the Claws and NASAMs just don’t infact the Aim-9 is best between 5-8 and the Aim-120 is best between 8-10km outside of that you’re basically praying the missile hits.

Thats not an issue of range. AMRAAM-ER can reach 30km no problem, the real issue is multipathing and notching being strong. Patriot wouldnt solve this issue, planes would shake off your lock just like they do now if you tried to make a long range shot. The game favors SHORAD by design.

Not quite. This thing exists, and it can carry 15 AIM-9Xs, Hellfire Longbows, Tamirs (interceptors from the Israeli Iron Dome), or 60 Miniature Hit-to-Kill missiles (designed specifically for intercepting munitions) per vehicle.

Also the BUK-M3 already in game has a stated minimum engagement range of 3-5km IRL, yet in game it can hit targets and intercept munitions at much closer ranges than that.

*ALBMs

the issue is that AMRAAM-ER is hilariously underprefoming

IRL it should reach Mach 4+ with some sources saying up to 4.5
in game it only reaches ~Mach 2.5, with most launches only hitting ~2.3

Buk is kinda of a special case since it has thrust vectoring missiles. They are half a ton telephone pole size missiles, yes but you get what i am saying.

Sry, you are right. Sweden

poland to sweden too just incase

It still wouldnt matter, wouldnt change their performance against notch and multipath

probably one the best AA for in game would be 1 truck of this and 1 truck of NASSAMS with a fixed AMRAAM-ER

with a radar like they both should have, instead of the shitty implementation of the original sentinel radar NASSAMS has in game (it should at least use a later version)

I want this in game mostly because its on an FMTV chassis. We already got the model as a map piece for infantry and now i want more

There was a bug report on that which got accepted. Though who knows when it will actually get fixed, considering there was also another bug report to get the Sentinel radar TWS ESA, and they said it would be fixed during the Heavy Cavalry update, yet it did not get fixed and we have already had another major update since then.

You expected them to fix something in a timely manner? The Spyder’s radar had several bugs that were accepted and still have yet to get fixed

I know

given that we are still waiting for some multi year old ADATS radar reports to get fixed (including a massive radar elevation buff), I doubt this will get changed anytime soon

I do expect them to fix something when they say it is fixed (it is still marked as “fixed” despite them still having done nothing about it lmao)
