This is not an AIO unit though, is it?
No I don’t think so, I’m not sure where their control would be.

it’s only OP because it’s the only one atm that has those types of capabilities. It’s a modern AA that is being used today in the Ukrainian war. We just need something that is just as powerful to combat the more modern jets.

It wouldnt be on sight. It would go back to radar locking instead of visually sighting the enemy like it use to be. That use to be WAY better than just visually locking on to enemy. Just more realistic . Idk why they went for visual lock.
We escalate , we never de escalate, comrade. De escalating while the enemy escalates is a fools errand.
Oh yeah, anyone who has Israel has to be spaa nation 100% . Yall need a spaa more than ever.
In my opinion Stryker MSL can be added after the ADATS.

100% this is what is needed at a minimum. Slaamram is another good one that I think would be needed to be modified for the game, but a good option.
Stryker MSL however needs no modding and exists on a complete package.aim9’s/stingers, hellfires and 30mm cannon.

sorry for miss info guys aim120a/c5 wouldn’t even be op if they add right now it can barely catch up with mig15 going 1000km straight line more than 10km as i show you in these pics so even if add right now it would be lees the Panstir and close to vt1
THAAD and Patriot would be FAR less potent that a current ADATS. You get no launch warning from an ADATS, no RWR notification that it’s tracking you, and it has smokeless motors…
The Patriot has ALL of these.
The THAAD has ALL of these.
No smokeless motor, you know exactly when they see you and when they fire. Most are static emplacements, so the already abundant gliders will be able to cross-map you with a minute or so of waiting.
What I’m all for is adding experimental / paper SPAA for America. A large majority of nations are tied to good SPAA, though America ditched most of these in the '90s due to the cost of their development.
In other words… I REAAAALLLLYYYY need an AGDS.
The C-5 has a 10km increase from a static position over the 120A/B… You’re comparing two entirely different missiles and using the worse one as a baseline.

If it’s mobile, absolutely. If not, there’s no reason to even think about it.
Bro, you know the THAAD isn’t for intercept aircraft right?

It doesn’t matter what it’s for.
It does, how to you use a SAM system designed for intercept balistic missile from space to intercept a low flying plane? This is just like using Tor to shoot tank, is nearly impossible

i see your point on c5 having more range that case would be 100% if it was lunch from aircraft at mach1 at alt of 4km it would have more then 10km around 22km depend on the target but from ground lunch with 0 alt 0 speed the c5 and a120 aren’t that far range wise the d/v of aim120a is around 880 m/s and c5 aim120 around 930m/s d/v so that would not give it 10km as you stated more like 3km to 6km at max
both missile c5 a120a have same wight after Moter burn out and c5 has better drag
are you talking about mobile SPAA
with ARH missiles?
the only aim120 SPAA mobile launcher with more than 20km range is the Amaram-ER 50km max range and around 25km to 30km for fast aircraft (it has booster that lunch it to around mach2 before the aim120 Moter kick in so that how it gets its range even at such low speed and alt
I never once insinuated it was going to be used to shoot down a plane. Unlike the ADATS, the THAAD will give you every single indicator you would need to find it. Unless it can fire 4-6 missiles at glide bombs, I don’t see it surviving for more than 60 seconds in a GRB/GSB match.
50% longer flight time, a far more effective booster, better pull off the rip, FAR better tracking to help it hold speed, it’s literally a faster and more aerodynamic AIM-120 with a better propulsion system.
Your shot was of a MiG-15 at 10km. The missile was travelling EXTREMELY slow by the time it hit, and as you said, you were stationary.
The 120C-5 has a maximum kill range of 25km when ground launched. Seeing as the 120B is 15 and only reaches out to 10, I’d imagine the 120D can hit a pretty predictable transonic target out to 20km.
What’s 20-10?
