It has no laser designator for PGMs and no thermal camera. The other two Russian UAVs have both. It also has a smaller observation area. EDIT: Did some testing and didn't see much difference in spotting at night so maybe the Zala does have a thermal camera.

Wikipedia tells me it has a colour video camera, infrared camera, and a photo camera @ 10MP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazmaps Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I think the zala helps give some balance to the game, it helps offset some of the advantages of the us abrams and javs. the tungunstas also help the balance. The us can have invulnerable survelliance as well if the us player decides to swallow the cost. they get a better platform that has a laser designator so can precision strike anywhere on the map , can observe much larger areas and is invulnerable unless the us player decides to use it as a strike asset , I don't see why you'd want to ban Zalas.... the only thing the zala brings to the party is it's a cheap surveillance asset and not the best at that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euri Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Without CAS - Zalas and a couple of Tungs Russians are unplayable against US in H2H in most cases, especially with RUS in the attack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinophile Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share Posted December 12, 2016 I'll take the non Zala drones, to assuage his delicate nature. What else RUS can shoot down drones other than Tunguska? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm after this one - you haven't sent what RUS Arty can do, properly. US v US would be an intriguing match up though. Probably pretty fast.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinophile Posted December 13, 2016 Author Share Posted December 13, 2016 Current Email Diplomatic Exchange: KP: In the words of the great Von Blondies TFO: How are you not intellectually drained and in need of recovery time? lol. I still need to inspect the map. I have a feeling it could probably use about 500 percent more trees. KP: You know open space on maps is a fact of life yes? Oh you mole people. I always forget agoraphobia runs deep in the ground humpers. TFO: I can afford 57 Abrams tanks KP: Ah yes, Armoured strollers to carry your mole babies in to mole baby daycare. Very parental. However, Mech Inf or no game. Force Field protected Land Battleships are unwanted in this Game of Destroyers. TFO: Blue is unplayable against the russians without abrams tanks. everyone knows that. What we need-- is a donetsk city master map: KP: I'd be game to build that. But this is all time that could be used setting your turn.... TFO: What about the Chernova Hirka master map instead, its feels more real than swampland. KP: Sure! Just downloaded it, checking it out. [Download Complete] [CMBS Loaded] [QB battle selected] [Battle loads] ... KP: ****ing hell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheForwardObserver Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 What is the meaning of this? Kino leaking the emails of our private negotiations! Rolling out every play in the Russian Playbook I see! I like it-- it shows a commitment to total war. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
