Why Osa is so bad

they both have their own roles in matches yes

OSA has a bonus feature for me. I like to look at the radar spin.
And, well

yep i want to wait but 90% of the time the use maverick.

At the end of the day, I would rather the enemy air come closer to the battlefield than to be sitting in an oversized SPAA that can only fire missiles. 2S6 can help cap, kill enemy ground units, it’s just a better life. Hence, any topic that only discusses what missile is better is not to be taken too seriously. Not to mention, that many of my air kills in the 2S6 are with the 30mm that are flying at tree height level that would be gone before the OSA’s missiles even have time to react.

Don’t even get me started on my dislike for the TOR-M1…

If that is the case then why dont the 2S6 have issue with hitting me when I’m evading has hard as I can with CM spam at 8-10km distance and 10k ft alt and climbing.

If what you say is true, I should never be killed. I literally side skirt climb 15km from the battlefield until I’m above 20k ft otherwise i will die.

Sounds like you’re wasting some CM. Are you trying to break lock?

yeah broke the tail of a m-24 and only have the assit because some tank shot with is 12.7mm that great .

Yep, if you are in a notch and you drop chaff, it will at least shake the lock a little. OFC if it is not in TV/IR

The OSA is vastly superior to the trash Rolands at the same BR, missiles outrange everything for 10.3 and it can shoot down helicopters/jets pretty reliably on a head on, the proxy fuze on the 9M33M3 is massive and has a lot of explosive filler so it’s a guaranteed one shot.

Not to mention the Rolands can barely pull what feels 6g, bleed all their speed on the slightest turn and lose all control after 3km while 9M33M3 can pull its full 24G for its entire travel time.

Have you by any chance been going 100km/h when that happened ?
Strike drones can dodge it’s missile at those ranges, I’ve literally seen it happen.

From what you’ve been writing some might think 2S6 is stronger than Pantsir.

Yeah I know what he is trying to do, but with thermals - I don’t even need a lock a lot of the time in 2S6. Just visual aim and get the missile within proxi range. I often find locking to be quite optional.

yep the same explosive that do hit and critical yeah that right .

i use the lock for convenience. Im just too lazy to lead all the way by myself :p

yeah that non sense update trashed the roland and the effects of “realistic missile” whatever has not been applied to the osa as it came out. what frustrates me is that they know the roland is trash so they gave the airfield rolands completely different missile charasteristics where theyre able to hit targets in situatiosn where the normal roland would never hit with the same damn missile.

They did made the missiles more sluggish, but on the dev server they were on the old model.
I cried a little seeing a missile that reacts to my input.

are you saying on new dev server the roland has the new model removed from it?

I meant the OSA, when it was first on the dev. Roland has the new flight model
As for the AF Rolands, they are the same. Just AI uses data you can not to predict the flight path better.

Climbing at about 350kts

About as fast as the AMX can do with max weapons load. But even the Jaguar which is faster than that, gets hit

It doesn’t have 20km range and can’t hit 4 targets at once and I doubt the 2S6 can hit something pull 12Gs 15km from.thr battlefield like the Pantsir can

I mostly lock stuff with IRST as it’s much more accurate so I don’t have to move my mouse that much lol.
