Default Re: Sam

wanted to bump this thread for input.

I want to stress, i love how granular WinSP is in terms of electronic warfare for this element of combat, combined with the increased resilience of helo and aircraft assets vs. the original game. However I remain concerned over the general trend of results when a "hit" is achieved, especially with MPADS devices. This is not as much of an issue with large SAMs mounted on heavy vehicles and/or platform large AA emplacements. However with the small SAM's, like Stinger, which has always been touted as a game changer during the 80s conflict in Afghanistan....when a hit is achieved, even against non battle armored helo's and jets....the damage is negligible more often than not.

I remain curious for other opinions on this.....not the least in light of the Ukraine fighting. There have been some seriously impactful videos of the results of a light SAM hit on Helos.
