The su30sm is coming to the game as a much needed addition for Russian air and im gonna love flying it around in air br, but i have 1 concern that comes to mind and thats the kh38mts. with its r77-1,hmd r73s and great flight performance the su30sm will be an yet another insane cas aircraft, keep in mind its also a fighter so it dose not increase the spawn cost of the su34 meaning you can spawn both in back to back with ease, in a meta where the only nations with more than 12km of range are Russia and China (usually on the same team btw), like is it too much to ask for some ground launched amraams or some real means of defending ourselves that dont involve a 700sp spawn.

I doubt good high-top tier SAMs will come next update for every country except Russia so the only thing we can do is complain and hope

remove China which have only 2x Kh-29 and 6x AGM-65 without TGP in whole TT

We were told four KH38’s on Su25SM would be balanced, because ‘Its only four’, ‘it’s subsonic’ and ‘no tgp’
(It was infact, not balanced)
We were then told six KH38’s on Su34 would be balanced, because ‘no tgp’, ‘boat flight model’ and ‘just spawn CAP bro’.
(It was infact, not balanced).
So now, We’re expected to believe six KH38’s on Su30 would be balanced, despite addressing every single above weakness, and having the missiles and performance to take on any CAP that comes after it… because… ???
Why is it we keep adding better KH38 slingers, when the one and only SPAA in the entire game capable of countering a KH38 slinger, Pantsir, is on the same team as the KH38’s.
Why is it we are reading dev Q&A’s in December, openly admitting top tier CAS is having a negative impact on gameplay health, in no small part thanks to KH38’s wiping half the team every match, often multiple times per match, and then 2 months later adding an even more powerful KH38 slinger? There is not even one singular top tier AA coming this update. Nada. Zero.
UK & US have a half decade old AA in ADATS. France, Germany & Sweden all now have obsolete systems. Japan and Italy barely have anything worth spawning at all, and Israel straight up has nothing. The only country to get anything recently, China, got something kind of underwhelming, but even that hardly helps because they’re often on the same team as RU anyway.
I’m just tired boss.

I mean technically for China yes, it does have a long-range missile, but it’s not practical, the missile has good maneuverability but the speed is just too slow, and it can’t really engage any modern aircraft. Unless your opponent flies in a straight line.
The next patch is all for air-to-air combat in GRB (Or should I say always has been since missiles like KH38). All you can do is take out the munition with your missiles, which they added the ammo box and rewards for that.
Lets Just wait for the devserver to see How good it’ll be.
with just the loadout alone its gonna be the best cas jet in the game unless they remove the kh38 from the su30sm nothing on the dev server will change that.

Well IMO ground rb is utter garbage, maybe if it becomes completely unplayable because of the agm spam they’ll do something about it. I sincerely don’t understand How you guys still have energy to play that shit
This community evolves amazingly! Now we dont even need an aircraft in the game to start moaning about it…

thats the thing i mostly play air rb these days anyway because of how unbalanced ground feels but gotta keep asking for changes or itl never happen
a player with any real knowledge of the game can spot a problematic vehicle from a mile away.
