Default Re: Patriot SAM poor performance

The accuracy of the Patriot during Gulf I was HIGHLY exaggerated. It was really more like 10-25% vs the SCUDs.

VS aircraft, what it was designed for, it's undoubtedly better. But in reality SAMs rarely destroy aircraft, what the do is disrupt them so their strikes are less accurate. Unfortunately the code in WinSPMBT doesn't allow for this.
