Still better than the Shilka though? Unless they remove the APDS I guess.

A premium high BR spaa would be nice, for any other country than Russia.

That’s a horrendous idea. There’s way too many gaps in SPAA to start locking them behind pay walls.

Variations like the m1128 and m1128 Wolfpack that are literally the same thing would be cool
Like a premium LAV-AD with some camo and a vismod
Idk, if they remove the APDS thatd suck though, but thats not worth a whole BR up, considering every other 35mm’s BR
But thatd do nothing for the game
Well, then you could bring not one but TWO LAV-ADs in a match :D

Semovente M15/42 Antiaereo with a hell of a lot more ammo. Put it at 4.7 or 5.0 .Move that silly Leopard to 6.0 where we all know it is going anyway or just get rid of it and swap them over.
It’s pretty interesting. Submitted for the DIVAD competition against the XM247, it proved far superior to the Sergeant York, shooting down 15 helicopters to the York’s 8 and at longer range. This was, however, before the introduction of M822 HE-VT.
It’s certainly not on a worse chassis than the Gepard- M48A5 has got better armour and similar mobility (the Gep gets a worse engine than normal Leos).
The radar is a derivative of that on the Phalanx CIWS and the 35mms could fire 1100RPM combined from a 600 round belt. It also featured a LRF.
However, it doesn’t seem to have a very good max elevation which would be a pretty big issue for an SPAA. I see it as 8.3 material or mayyybe 8.7 depending on ammunition loadout.

Lol. I already have like 3-4 SPAA I bring at 10.3. Id just rather have them focus on bringing and actual SPAA we need and not premium like the Stinger and Raduster for lowtier, XM246 for 8.0-8.3, and another top tier.
They really should relabel the XM1069 to SPAA again. It only has 8 rounds and its not tandem
I think premium SPAAs is opening a god awful pandoras box
They should remove apds from gepard first
There is no need to use it to fill any gaps at all, thats just your idea.
So instead of filling the huge SPAA gaps some trees have, Gaijin should make premium SPAA at tiers which already have SPAA?

Terrible idea. Just more pay to lose shit.

You mean just like they do already with everything else? Why would this be any different? Dont kid yourself. You take this game too seriously for having played very little.
Just because they already do a bad practice with one thing doesn’t mean they should start with another.
Also I’ve been playing since 2013, what?

Thanks but no.
Who put you charge ?
None, but the M42 at 4.7 would be much harder to use.
