Why is the Stormer HVM so bad?

No, the issue he has is that griffon spits are boom and zoomers, not turnfighters

they took a low altitude turn fighter
gave it a engine which only performs higher than 5000 meters and said now go boom an zoom
only the late griffon spits are actually build for that better control at high speed

I suggest Reading this he thinks the missiles bad performance is because of bad sync rate between server and client

It wouldn’t surprise me. Over the last year I’ve definitely noticed more and more desync between tank positions/orientations and where they actually are in game. It makes heli pve unplayable.

Thanks to @Flame2512 we now have some actual numbers for Starstreak;

47G at 370m from the tube? That’s a spicy sausage right there.

finally

Man, Flame is truly a Madman, finding all these sources.

But now i have a question, as i have seen contradicting claims. Do these darts spin around or no? And by that i do not mean rotational force from the carrier, i mean what we have in game, to they constantly and intentionally keep going in the circle or no?

Following reports have been done;

  • [uk_stormer_hvm] Incorrect IRST search zone values
  • [us_starstreak] Incorrect separation distance from main booster
  • [us_starstreak] Incorrect Maximum G Overload
  • [missile] [us_starstreak] Incorrect Engagement Zones
  • [uk_stormer_hvm] Stormer HVM incorrect ammo capacity

Can we get something like this for the ADATS?

Once we get the docs then yes

Great

The thing is these docs have to be unclassed and someone has to get them/ pics of then

let’s hopium starstreak can get full auto guidance

How would this even work?

Updated the list of new reports.

That’s all I’ve found so far.

You target a thing, you press shoot and game does everything else for you

@Gunjob @Flame2512

Thank you so much guys for putting time into this. I’m guessing you had to go to the national archives Flame?

Would be surprised if this thing ever ends up being fixed but it’s good to have hope. Star Streak just feels so redundant when Stinger, Strela and, hell, even MISStral exist at a full BR lower with better engagement ranges, acquisition, tracking, and even speed after the first 3km.

Very annoying to track a target flying in anything other than a straight line with my pathetic human reaction times and ability to lead a target, only for the missile to deal no damage or the IRST to lose lock against clear sky.

Hopefully the fixes will come sooner than 2025.
