Why there is no APS on T-90?

[finalsolution49]

one of the lacking feature of Syrian warfare is, no APS on T-90, because in real life, T-90 is equipped with Shtora or Arena APS (Active protection System)

Secondly, considering some of the devs is the creator of Warfare , we all know that in warfare, there are APS in that game's M1A2 Abrams, and stryker IFV, logically they were already knew how to incorporate APS into this syrian warfare game engine also....

im curious why are the devs are witholding this APS feature, for the sake of game balance maybe?

well maybe this APS feature could be put in the next DLC.....

I never knew that, cool. Good spotting, always good to notice things like that. They should put it in i think.

oh about the game balance, if im not mistaken, the APS thing on warfare game, it is actually not always makin u 100% immune, some missiles still getting through but hit probability by atgm considerably lower..(what a cool and semi realistic feature for 2008 game :D)

No Arena. Only Shtora jammers. Which are only useful against SACLOS missiles with a tail flare like TOW or Konkurs. Shtora also includes a laser warning receiver package that will trigger the Tucha smoke dischargers. You can do this manaually of course but it then screws up your firing since you smoked yourself.
A much more interesting extension is the Sarab-1 EO jammer developed in country and used on a variety of vehicles.

T-90 is already extremely powerful in the game, an APS would be an overkill if you ask me. (But I still would like to see it :))

based on my experience playing warfare, APS will 100 percent work if ur turret and the front hull is facing the single incoming atgm/rpg, but facing a salvo of those, furthermore if its came from multiple direction simultaneously, then the APS less likely to work

Export T-90's often do not have APS systems as a default option. IIRC, you need to buy the APS systems as a seperate deal since it is not 'bundled' with the tank itself.

For example, India is currently the largest operator of the T-90, but none of its T-90's have Arena or Shtora. They were instead upgraded with aftermarket Saab LEDS-150 APS systems, acquired seperately (from South Africa/Sweden, and not Russia).

Here is a good article on the Syrian Sarab-1, 2 & 3 "Soft Kill APS"

For whatever reason, I didn't think in my head the Shtora as APS. Clearly the ones in this game have that and that article you shared with the T-90 surviving a hit was interesting. What I meant was the Arena APS which I'm sure is rare to find on anything but Russian owned tanks. But I've learned a few things here today

T90 is already the best unit in this game, lol.

[magnum2016]

Perhaps it could be a DLC unit ;)

IRL there is some question as to whether the IR dazzler that is fitted on some T90s actually works on newer TOWs.

APS reminded me the good old time with C&C: Zero Hour :)
It's more fun to dodge missiles in this game though.
