Shooting Helicopter Missiles at 8.3 - Shturm-S - War Thunder

[@R95Q]

The Shturm-S my absolute favourite vehicle it proves that not all great vehicles are meta premium's.

[@CatsAreAmazing8187]

I feel bad for whoever thought that was true ngl

[@Sh-epard]

Premiums are great if you can mastered them in their role, but rarely are above the average of their TT variants. The Shturm-S is one of them, a TT vehicle very fun to use if you can mastered. But for the prems, to me only the Strv 103-0 is a great tank to use, even being so conservative and wacky thanks to the hull aim (just passed the 2000 kills today).

[@CatsAreAmazing8187]

@@Sh-epard They are both about the same in terms of how good they are, and yes obviously no vehicle i the game will perform well in hands of a dumbass, that being said the issue w prems is just that good vehicles are super easy to get

[@Sh-epard]

@@CatsAreAmazing8187 i agree with you, sadly it's the reality of a freemium game😕

[@julianturberfield7101]

​@@Sh-epard Freemium can be achieved solely on the backs of paid camos, decals and Premium. Being freemium doesn't need to include P2W (League is a good example of being a massively profitable game with no INTENTIONALLY powerful (a couple skins have clarity issues) mtx). Gaijin is just garbage.

[@Sh-epard]

One of my favourite atgm carrier and also a versatile SAM platform. Time by time i use it for fill the AA gap from 8.0, at 10.0 for example it works fine to assist my T-80B and T-72 Moderna.

[@darioortiz74]

In that vehicle the repo crew only works if you are inside a capped zone when you lose 1 crew, then you are able to stay alive with one crew only, it works in mbt too, you left with one crew and you can repo the crew and have 2 if you are inside an ally cap

[@raizencore]

The Strv 103 can survive with just a crew member even outside of a captured zone, it was designed so that it could be operated by 1 person.

[@darioortiz74]

@@raizencore yea but that is a different desing, it was meant to be able to operate with one crew member, this other tanks dont, so if you are leaved with one crew member you die, unless you are inside a cap zone and that cap is already allied. In that case the game automatically start the process of re crew and you got 2 crew members to still operate the tank

[@raizencore]

@@darioortiz74 I know, just wanted to point that out for the Strv because you didn't mention it by name so if someone reads your comment they'll be like "what is this dude talking about" you know.

[@sharkk127]

One thing that I've started doing with vehicles that have atgms is get behind a hill and use the commander sight, its fucking amazing

[@raizencore]

Facing this thing while it's in a hull down position is so infuriating but that's also what makes it so damn powerful.

[@Sh-epard]

How many rages against mine, even being stock... I can undestand is a pain in the track to face it, just as the Khrizantema, the Raketenjagdpanzer HOT and IT-1 (man these two are even worse to fight than the Shturm-S...)

[@lucky_4_jake4]

I can confirm Justin’s decal is cool

[@Eunski]

Ah yes. Atgms. The bane of my existence alongside helicopter and cas playersm

[@AlexVanChezlaw]

That "it has paper armor therefore it has to have op shit at a lower br" logic is so frustrating, I hate vehicles like this

[@gabrielangelos2821]

I thought you had 500.000 subs, now i see you are criminally underated

[@Simplink]

You can do this with all the antiairs, especially nice with ADATS when people are flying very high and adats does not have the elevation otherwise

[@dovahkiin3526]

Other vehicles can still do the third person ridiculous angle firing, like the BMP-1 or the IT-1

[@haydendill6288]

The last thing we need is a Maus team at 7.3 XD

[@farmcat9873]

nothing like a having a lil fun with some BIG boy missiles in a low profile Shturm-S 🤩 I like seeing tank destroyers like this and it be great to see the Khrizantema-S for a vid since the other day a enemy one ate up that Chinese ATGM from that Z-9W.(800mm of pen) HJ-8C*

[@sidecharacterC]

I just use it fully loaded with vt missiles as a dedicated anti helicopter sam in my 8.3-8.7 line up.

[@wickedjaws5400]

I honestly grinded whole tree just for shturms, 268 and krizantema. Was worth it.

[@ssxbarbarian9222]

Phly went over the sight change to all vehicles like this where you can adjust the sight to the depression. It was in one of the updates to help vehicles like the british stryker to be more viable.

[@laxmannate07]

Great vich in the right situations

[@CaptainRockyFurry]

LOL Yeah don't know how you got stuck in Akira but I was able to help out! Amazing video and good job in that game we were in together.

[@Sebastian-yl7nq]

10:02 I mean, removing it wasn't necessary at all tho. Just accept the fate that it's unbalancable and keep it, as a fun and gimmicky tank. Just because it doesn't fit the meta doesn't mean they have to outright remove the option for players to at least try it. How many stupid and "useless" tanks do we have? Should we just remove all of them or what

[@fire_drake12.arc.24]

Disable uptiers and downtiers and the whole tandem vs maus issue wouldnt be a problem anymore. Easy. Gaijin has full control over matchmaking times too, so that isnt an excuse.

[@bb-152ussmeta9]

I adore this tank, but I absolutely abhore the teams at this BR. More often than not my teams just get absolutely stomped and I'm left struggling to pull things back

[@goliath3413]

this thing is very situational. 2 days ago i decided to play it and i got killed inside the spawn by a stryker who skipped all the cap points and came into our spawn. Anyway i got mad and proceeded to spawn my fav t72B and get 11 kils, 2 caps and a nuke that i didn't get to drop. I used it whenever i was too lazy to play or when needed spaa but since soon we are getting strela, that will no longer be needed. If anyone ever says bias at this thing then a quick reminded would be that: Shturm missile (and ataka respectively) had a proxy fuse and tandem warhead at the same time irl, just like vikhrs.

[@aflyingcowboy31]

Of course it is situational, it excels on mid-large maps, regardless I have no clue why you are taking the 8.0 Shturm-S out at 9.7 when the Khrizantema exists. "If anyone ever says bias at this thing then a quick reminded would be that: Shturm missile (and ataka respectively) had a proxy fuse and tandem warhead at the same time irl, just like vikhrs." yea no that is false, there are multiple Shturm-Ataka (AT-9/9M120) missile variants, the missile you are talking about is a relatively new one and is actually an upgraded/modernized Shturm-Ataka, it was officially adopted by the Russian military in 2014 and was called the 9K132 Shturm-SM, so no, the Shturm-Ataka missile that is currently in the game does not have this feature, and the Shturm-SM is not currently even in the game.

[@goliath3413]

@@aflyingcowboy31 i take it out because its not spaded and there is no spaa. And no, i dont want to use bmp2m. If you say that documentation movies that i saw of it labeled 1980s with multipurpose nissiles is fake, sure. Have it your way

[@aflyingcowboy31]

@@goliath3413 "If you say that documentation movies that i saw of it labeled 1980s with multipurpose nissiles is fake, sure." It is not fake, they are just wrong, the only missile for Russia that did that in the late 80s was the Vikhr missile, if what you and those documentaries are claiming is true, then why on earth would KBM make three variants of that missile when they only needed 1? There were 3 different initial variants of the Shturm-Ataka missile, the 9M120 which is tandem, 9M120F which is HE, and 9M220O which is a proxy round, please explain why KBM would do this if they had a multi-purpose warhead that could practically do the same as these 3 warheads?

[@goliath3413]

@@aflyingcowboy31 you're asking me why tacticians and engineers decided on something ? thats like asking why is a10 still in service or why are they using bad ammunition. As i said: you're right. end it at that

@@goliath3413 "thats like asking why is a10" We know why, because the politicians refuse to retire it. "As i said: you're right. end it at that" I know I am right, if you had done any research you would have known this as well, KBM made three different Shturm-Ataka missile because they had to, there aren't 3 different Vihkr missiles, i.e. one is tandem, one is HE and one is proxy, is there, use some common sense next time mate.

[@Sh-epard]

8.3 is enough fine for such atgm carrier, and a valid SAM as stopgap. The chinese Mephisto, with 1200mm atgm is more unbalance at 8.7 and it's used also at 10.7-11.0 (founded more there than at 8.7-9.7). Still it's really situational to use, and the cost is highly prohibitive (9.2k SL spaded...then add the cost of a full missile load of both tandem and proxy missiles🤐)
