One guided missile to demolish tanks and aircraft alike? You got it! War Thunder is on the cusp of featuring an air defence anti-tank system based on the Bradley IFV chassis.
The ADATS was developed at the end of the 1980’s as a general-purpose weapon capable of bringing down low-flying airborne targets as well as armoured opponents. Hence the abbreviation: Air Defence Anti-Tank System. The system was comprised of radar for detecting and tracking targets, a complex radio kit for coordinating multiple vehicles, and eight MIM-146 guided missiles in transport and launch containers. The US Army version was built on the Bradley IFV chassis and fitted with a 25mm auto cannon. Notwithstanding the fact that it was selected after a US Army competition for the Forward Area Air-Defence program, it was found to be excessively expensive to manufacture and never made it to serial production on the Bradley chassis.
ADATS (Bradley). Air defence anti-tank SPG system, USA, rank VII.
Pros
- One missile for any target!
- Radar
- Cannon capable of handling IFVs and anti-aircraft vehicles
Cons
- Poorly armoured
- Fairly prominent profile
In War Thunder the ADATS Bradley will appear in update 1.89 at the rank VII of the USA ground vehicle tech tree. It’s average in terms of speed and manoeuvrability, its armour only stands up to bullets, and the hulking ADATS dimensions make it fairly conspicuous, especially when the radar antenna is active...
But who cares about that when you have your hands on the controls of a weapon capable of knocking out anything that crosses your sites? Eight all-purpose guided missiles with radio fuses will find their way to the sneakiest chopper in the sky, chase down fleeing aircraft, and even torch tanks – they penetrate up to the equivalent of 900mm of rolled homogeneous steel.
And the rhythmic chatter of the 25mm autocannon will be the last thing enemy anti-aircraft vehicles and IFVs hear thanks to the APCR shells that come even with the stock belt. Fantastic! Sure, the rate of fire leaves something to be desired, but having that cannon sure comes in handy when you really need it.
The ADATS Bradley is a worthy answer to the Tunguska when it comes to War Thunder’s fields of battle. One missile for any target is an unusual and promising solution. So, shall we see what happens with update 1.89 and put this vehicle through its paces in some higher-ranked battles?

I am happy with new vehicles, but most desire things is the balance of leopard 2A5. The balance is really so bad that I fear to see German tanks at opposite side. leopard 2A5 is basically immune from both m1A1 and T80U when there are just little rough terrain, and immune all tier VI and below. if give a rating, M1A1 10.3, T80U 10.3, Leopard 2A5 12.0. So now is 10.3 vehicles figthing with 12.0 vehicles.
HELL YEAH!!!
FUCK NO!!!
KILL ME!!!
We need more russian Bias)))
Also can i ask what is the point with flare for helicopters if you can not use it to trick the Tunguska's missile or SAM in general ?
The point is that you fly low and sit behind cover, as helicopters had to do in real life...
Fly it like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unRKKRZMAVI
What are you guys going to do about the sonic boom??? Its been 2 updates later and it's still not fixed. Any info on that??
" they penetrate up to the equivalent of 900mm of rolled homogeneous steel" -rocket jagdpanzer 2(HOT) has left the chat
The problem with this vehicle is that it was a prototype only. The ADAT was put on the M113 in other countries. The best one would be the LAV-25 ADV, and not this version.
Nothing wrong with that.
Why are we getting more radar-guided SAMs when we have no aerial countermeasure? ARMs weren't introduced until Vietnam, and we have no Vietnam war era jets. Many people have said it before, but why are jets from the 1950s competing against modern SAM systems? They have no electronic warfare capabilities, and no countermeasures. It's like giving one football team a cannon to get their ball across the pitch while the other team just has to play traditionally- absolutely unbalanced.
this is not radar guided! Guidance: Digitally coded laser beam-riding https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Defense_Anti-Tank_System
F15 Eagle when?
Gaijin, why? just why? You added a vehicle for the US not even active militaries in the World wanted this abomination. Canada had it for what all of 8 years? and it never fired a round nor missile in anger... Why didn't you create the M6 Linebacker? or M1097 Avenger? Those are things the fans, and community contributors were wanting. but no you had to add something no one liked or wanted.. How very Gaijiin of you...
It never fired in anger because canadians are nice people k? Joke aside, dont speak on behalf of everybody, some people like it, sorry eh!
