This tank destroyer is mounted on a BMP-3 chassis, equipped with a radar, thermal imaging and extremely powerful missiles and capable of simultaneously firing two ATGMs at two different targets! In our game, the 9P157-2 Khrizantema will become a top-ranked tank destroyer in the USSR tech tree. Powerful ATGMs geared with a dual guidance system that uses both radio signals and laser beams for tracking the target will serve as the units base. Aiming through the commanders or gunners crosshairs may be a feature every War Thunder tanker is very familiar with, but using the Khrizantemas radar, on the other hand, will become a whole new experience for the players. What we essentially get is an all-purpose and practically faultless means of detecting and neutralizing enemy tanks even in minimal visibility, be they concealed behind a smokescreen or in the dark of the night. Thats practically the same as the aircraft equipped with a radar that detects enemy aircraft! The dual guidance system allows the player to launch two missiles at once the target that the radar locks on to is hit automatically, while the second missile travels toward the enemy unit in the gunners crosshairs by following the path set by, as one would expect, the laser beam. In the game, the missiles are launched in sequence. The first projectile is controlled by the radar system, and should the necessity arise, you can fire an ATGM that youll have to guide manually using the crosshairs.

The Khrizantema will make you experience high-rank combat in ways youve never experienced before. For instance, picture the following scenario in your head: a missile controlled by a radio signal is flying towards a tank guarding a capture point and surrounded by a smokescreen, while you are guiding the second ATGM through your crosshairs right into its allys frontal hull. All in all, you need to research and test the Khrizantema in combat as soon as the opportunity presents itself. Its a new high-rank ace up Russias/the USSRs sleeve that is practically guaranteed to stay in your top setup for a long time. When will this unit become available? Once War Thunder: Starfighters major update is out, so very soon! See you later! [quote]Check out the full Dev Blog article here![/quote]
