Missile locomotor looks great, but isn't that building a bit overpowered?

Moreover, the maps in this mod are larger and twilight flame might be the smallest map on the mod XD. Therefore aircrafts will fire their missiles from a larger range.

I'd like to see the PLA HQ-19 as well (S-400 licensed equivalent).

Don't you think the HQ-19 is very new with the PLA? They have much more of the S300 PMU2.

The first reports of the HQ-19 were published in 2009. 4 Years has passed and they have had enough time to train the personnel and operators for the HQ-19.

I still believe that the top chinese SAM should be the HQ-19 with the HQ-9B being the initial variant then the S-300PMU2 then the HQ-19. The HQ-2B is still in service but being rapidly phased out.

PAC-3 is the current standard. Not sure why you are using the PAC-2.

You can upgrade this PAC-2 to PAC-3. After the upgrade it gains ability to target ballistic missiles. Also after the upgrade, you should be able to command the SAM to target ballistic missiles only or Aircrafts only or both.

Looks good. Is the S300 and Patriot will be a defensive structure?

Most probably but not sure as part of the decision goes to our team members. We will discuss this soon. However the new IRMTS (version 2.1) seen in the video can go mobile. Previous versions couldn't. So its possible to make 3 patriots + their radar move and have different animations too like deploy animations. The most important factor for us is balance between sides. Also, this is still a game for example if we want to implement the real range of the S400, it will cover the whole map. However the S400 will have a higher range and will detect stealth at a range higher than the patriot. Currently all stealthy aircraft can be detected on the radar but at a much lower range than normal aircrafts. Also stealthy aircraft cant be detected by all radars only some of them.

yes the radar first and then the launchers because they can still fire if the fog of war is revealed by other units :P Its not very easy to overcome this SAM site and that is why we are adding ECM, flares, and low altitude flying aircrafts as well as stealth bombers like the F-35. A good plan would be to send SEAD aircraft first to destroy the radar and then followed by many bombers. You gave me an Idea, I will make a video of a SEAD mission when the IRMTS is fixed.

EA logic = Add cliffs and trees in the map twilight flame in order to decorate the empty desert.
More EA logic = add the trees next to cliffs and add only a few of them since only a small amount of trees can grow in the desert and especially next to cliffs!
