i think even if you have some imperfect form of AA missile at the main bases it will make it extremely hard for jets to baserape because instead of concentrating on bombing and strafing now they will have to concentrate on evading incoming AA missiles. so they will still be able to baserape to some degree but it will be very difficult

exactly, generally the people who baserape are not the best players, so they lose, while squads who intend to sabotage commander assets will not have to suffer the sphere of death.

could it be coded so that when the radar is destroyed it will no longer lock onto jets?

SA-3 is very cool but its soooo old i think since lately ive been hearing of russia selling SA-10s to syria and iran, i think that would be a little more fitting. remember this game is supposed to take place in the near future. I think they would have phased out SA-3 by then. maybe not. either SA-10 or TOR M1 sounds more realistic to me.

Sounds like an idea. Having big "fuckoff" AA emplacements like the SA-3 in the main would be a real deterrent. Especially if they were made one hit kills to aircraft.
Would make hitting an enemy base risky buisness.

I like the idea. A real SAM system would be much better than the current AA guns at the main base. It would also give all of the people waiting for a vehicle to spawn something to do.

In reality the Patriot is a very capable anti aircraft missile system with the ability to shoot down some missiles as a bonus. (buyers are more interested in the bonus than shooting down enemy aircraft for some reason) So having the Patriot would make perfect sense.
