Patriot SAM poor performance

[Isto]

What Sam is effective then if patriot is a poor system ? I find it hard to estimate what sam systems perform better. Some older systems like buk or krub or osa seem better at responding than modern patriots or hawks in the game. Looking at the info screen patriot should be superior to those but in practice it seems not to be the case. Is thee some hidden information that are not displayed on how sam missiles react ? Like some kind of initiative value. Crew exp is usually higher on countries that use patriot too. All statistics favour them and still kub seems better. Osa seems most useful even against stand off attacks even it has a low range in comparison. I am totally confused about these. It seems to me that if a acountry does not have other area sam than patriots its not even worth taking even against outdated planes, they will still roam freely even against multiple patriots, they wont even shoot. EW 8 seems to produce immunity against patriots even patriots have higher EW value than that.

How can i predict what EW does in the game and how do anti air missiles react, is it a matter of deploy or field of vision ?

The armor code have been changed ?

Mach 5 was stated on wikipedia for MIM-104 Patriot. I guess someone could change that if its incorrect.


Still what you posted seems like propaganda to me. It contradicts strongly with the words of a president. What should we believe if not our leaders.

Not trying to start an argument but really? I don't believe anything any of "our" leaders say, they are all liars. They are not experts in military or technical matters.

What we should believe is what the research shows, not what politicians say.

And on the field of battle you still can't trust the 'higher ups' at times. Prior to us going to combat they told us to expect 75% or higher casualties. We received 5%.

I just listened to U.S. Marines that were going to shore on Iwo that it had been pounded for six months and that there is nothing to worry about and its should only take 5 to 7 days to mop up the Island. It took 30 days and the Marines lost more than the Japanese.
