One of my dad’s employees actually worked on ZU-BOI and ZU-GAL in real life. If I remember correctly he was responsible for avionics upgrades. So awesome to see it in WT now!
As a South African listening to you pronounce the name of the ZT3A2 Ingwe I absolutely died inside hahaha. Still you gave me a solid minute of pure laughter lol.
to be honest as some one who has played A LOT of heli's in GRB I think this thing will be alright but not amazing. the heat suppression might be good vs some AAS. Lots of people don't have top tier AAs to match their lineups so you see a lot of LVADS, ozelots, gep2s, and strela. However it will be in a tough spot vs SACLOS. The missiles seem good, but to me the big downside is no AA missiles, a competent cas player will just bully you. If the cannon is very accurate and the heat suppression system works well you might be able to target lock kill them in a head on with the gun. Its an interesting vehicle but I was very sad to see no AAM.
Playing the rooivalk (it has the same cannon as superhind) i can say that it is pretty damn accurate against aircraft. And hey, not only does superhind gets heat suppression system, it also gets IRCM so IR missiles of aircraft really is a no-go Iirc irl superhind also gets MAW so who knows?
@@shadowknightgaming1874 hes point was with ircm those ir guided aa systems are normally not a big thread. Usually they cant lock you. Unlike the g-lynx that can be locked.
Well to me the ATGMs range is the most downside, 5km against spaa is really not that awesome. (Even if many longer ranged missiles get crippled by targeting zone bearing extremely narrow)
I was reading about this helicopter in detail two months ago, and now its in War Thunder. It was a pretty good modification, sadly it didn't go into serial production. Ingwe's are pretty good missiles. and are also used on Ratel
2:18 Realistically Hellfire's effective range is 6km at best, above that you'll only hit stationary targets. What I'm more concerned about is the airspeed and controllability. The ZT3A2 has this same missiles (what a surprise), and they kinda suck to aim since the ATGM update.
Gaijin really be adding so many squadron vehicles much faster than we can earn them. I was so close to having them all minus the ships and now there's SO many
Tankenstein please try Mi-24A from russia with bombs, it's not op but extremely fun! if you climb to 1,000~1,200 meter at the start no one will notice, you can sit above everyone and just drop bombs at them in hover mode. with right targets, you can get 3 out of 4 bombs to hit and kill the tank. (Of course everything stops when enemy SPAA spawns)
putting this thing at 10.3 with the g-lynx being .4 br higher and much more capable is a joke. this thing has no aa and no hellfires, it's doa. whats the point of having that x67 zoom when you have to get within 4 km of your target (factoring in altitiude) ? the heat suppression is also completely useless because the main enemy of this thing is SACLOS missles like the roland, as well as the spikes.
It allows the 10.3 line up to have a good heli. It has target tracking and the missiles give it enough range to stay out of IR range. It’s not DoA at all. 8 missiles is good too
Now every other Helo in the game should be made to attack within 5km of their targets (which is within SPAA range) and Helos will finally stop being toxic.
Mind you not every match has saclos using players and they are mostly higher brs +require line of sigth. Choper wont be super good or op , but it does have some good atributes. But yes it prob should sit at 9.7 or 10.0 tops.
@@CrispyPratt for whatever reason, in my head I thought that squad vehicles were only available to players in a clan or whatever. I haven't played in a really long time, honestly.

Strela might as well be a top-tier aa the missels rarely miss.

Kinda disapointed it's a squadron vehicle, was so excited to grind it when it was leaked
I will say, could be worse. Could be like the 'Valk.
Hey it still free
At least we can still get it free
In 8 months cus I'm grinding f117 first
@@General_kenobi12 I'd rather it be a premium vehicle tbh

ZT3A2 ATGM got a drastic Speed and Stability improvement on the dev server
this is a pretty awesome addition

Enemy spaa? Do you mean crazy marder, that will always find you?
other thank looking good, i think the tandem's kinda save this vehicle
As i love using this in arma 3 RHS
I've had the real helicopter that this model is based on land at the airport where I work
It looks cool, reminds me a bit of Blue Thunder.
Radar missile AA have effectively neutralised helicopters.
Should get ZT-6s and absolutely get thermals, still a very cool addition though.
It does have thermals, but it is missing, hmd, mk81 250lb bomb, Ukraine atgms
Should be 9.7
Is the dev sever over?
Am I missing something how tf you have 5mill on the dev server how you get ge
Since Gaijon is giving out Leopards to every nation.
Wgen will we get T80/90 for other nations ?
tbf, T-90S (UK) and T-80U (SW) do exist

The Super Hind is lets just say Super fine
The super hind is such a terrible stock grind on the Russian tree, AAMs are a rank 4 modification and you unlock the missiles from 4 to 8 to 16 >:(
There's no superhind on russian tt
@@errornamenotfound2513 i mistook it for a modified mi35 lol but all of what I said still applies if you change the names to be correct
"Decent cannon"
'Fires at IFV'
'Shell Shattered'
Man they ruined 40mm stuff badly.
i really dont know why anyone would use bombs on a heli, a strike aircraft or a fighter would be much better for bombing
It's a first spawn with bombs
because its fun
Russian helicopter in service of South Africa, but somehow it ends up in British tech tree? 😂
Kinda underwhelming atm, I don’t see any reason to use this over the Lynx ATM
Good Heli for 10.3 lineup (lynx is at 10.7)
And hey, 73x zoom for a 10.3 heli is amazing
Screw squad vehicles.
What? You literally get the vehicle free just by being in an active squadron, no painful grind, no paywall
@@CrispyPratt "no painful grind" LMAO

its free ?
Nah, this heli won't be OP, it's a good heli, but I don't think it will break the BR or anything
I mean if it did get everything it should have on live. It would be OP if it stayed on 10.3
Tr? 73x zoom
IM a hind fan but honestly I dont think this is good by all mean at 10.3.
too bad theres no ussr version
I mean it's a south African heli, +russia doesn't really need more helis. They're already adding the new mi8
