Your SPAA Wishlist for the Next War Thunder Update!

Most of them do for example the pantsir can technically fire missiles on the move but there is a risk of tipping over, but it can’t fire the autocannon on the move without the anchors because that would surely tip it over the same for the type 81 and the fla rak rad and numerous AA

Shilka, Gepard and probably ADATS can fire on the move

I think, most tracked SPAAs

tracked spaa’s cuz they have a much more stiff and reliable suspension system that can handle the weight and the tank of tilting over specially since those tanks arent tall as heck wich normally makes it so the center of mass its above and this makes vehicles tilt over when firing a good example of this its the KV2 how it tilts over when it fires due to how tall it is

ill try to explain it with my poor painting skills:
since the pantsir is quite tall and is being sustained with wheels, it has less surface than a tracked vehicle so the center of mass being that tall and the vehicle being relatively heavy, with the force of the autocannon it can tilt over (red circle center of mass)

meanwhile in vehicles such as the shilka due to how the tracks work it has more surface to get shots without tiping over unlike taller vehicles wich makes the center of mass more centered instead of more above and instead of pushing itself from a much higher place wich would cause it to push its taller center of mass

It’s not restricted to fire guns in Pantsir without outriggers. But obviously they quite help especially when firing at sides.

i mean yeah if they fire to the back and front it will obviously stay in position but the moment it turns sideways just slightly that’s enough to tip it over

The purpose is to offer stability, especially over rough terrain.

Excellent to hear

Moto Guzzi 500 TriAlce, Italy must have this!

we already have an SPAA with AESA Radar, it’s the ASRAD-R its just modelled incorrectly

This thing is multi-purpose technically it can target helicopters with its 10km range would be nice as a anti-helicopter semi-sam

I usually forget that this anti-aircraft even exists

Multi purpose missile the warhead apparently it’s so Big its excessive Even against highly armored targets

The Boxer IRIS-T for Germany would be a nice addition to the game. The FlaRakRad really struggles for a 11.7 SPAA.

100% agree when it comes to jets with rockets lol I killed many just by watching the smoke trail it leaves then shoot Zuni rockets or FFAR rockets destroying not only the missile but the vehicle. Too easy to dodge and kill. Fire and forget missiles are just a better option against jets like Type 81 C. Roland are more effective against helis.

It gets much better once you unlock VT1 missiles, Roland 3 as stock is just miserable for top tier mach jets. I basically unlocked VT1’s by plinking helicopters until I had enough RP for it. But once you unlocked it, you are still forced to use the crappy Roland turret with 2 missiles and a God awful reload.

try to be a truck TD (not really, i heard that Roland3 or VT1 can easily do overpress now, is that true?

Yes, you can occasionally troll people if you aim the rocket for overpressure spots, LFP on T series tanks and breach on Abrams
