The Derby/R-Darter did get buffs before everyone else just a few months ago.
a rework that made em better at range trading a bit of shortrange capebility, not anywhere close to the rework the other missiles received.
Anyway Gaijin has said they are gonna be reworking them aswell so just wait.
Not doubting you but can you point to where they said that?

I remember reading it but somehow my eyes skipped over Derby and went straight for looking at Python. Thanks.
i do hope they rework the Python 3 aswell not only the SAM python 5
It appears they’re going to work on Derby but not R-Darter, not sure if the communication guy is confused or what, if they’re trying to now separate Derby from R-Darter. Derby is planned this year but not necessarily R-Darter yet.
Well its the PR so he might not know entirely, afaik the only Differences between the two is that one is heavier cause it uses diff Electronics or smth
I think it’s a given they’ll prioritize air to air missiles, so just not only SAM Python. I’m of the opinion that they’re adding next-gen IR missiles this year which is why AIM-9X and Python 5 is being reworked but not any of the other SAMs (excluding IRIS-T). Pretty sad that they’re not reworking surface to air missiles but maybe with time they will.
