It uses a Combined effect warhead, with a Height of burst sensor (similar to the -114R-2), so should have a proximity fuse (gaming convention, see 155mm M107(PF)), and good fragmentation properties. So be far superior against light amour and aircraft, than hellfire’s. Especially with near misses and grazing hits.

JAGM only makes sense if we get JAGM-MR

talking proxy fuses, i want the APKWS with a proxy fuse lol, Shotgunning enemy aircraft trying to strafe me would be insanely fun
Ive seen people ask for that for a very long time, however i have the feeling that the snail is deathly allergic to any form of fun.

we havent got proper anti armor APKWS yet either lol
Yep , meanwhile some random jet that no one uses in ground (JF17) gets whats esentially HEAT Apkws
Well, not long ago there was a video from Northrop Grumman with a new warhead for the APKWS.
APAM warhead.
Yeah, this.
would the JAGM-MR be unique to the US?

lets hope they arent just added as copy and paste spikes
or that they arent spikes with less agility because gaijin doesnt understand that hellires can turn

Don’t you know only a “certain” nation gets to have Proximity Fuse ATGMs for “some reason”
well they go mach 1.5 apparently
They should be as fast as a hellfire
It has double the range of the hellfire which means either longer burn time or thrust. Either way time to target should be noticeably reduced higher average speed.
yes afaik
jagm mr has a multi mode seeker, its the result of the scrapped JAGM IR, it likely could work both, mmw, Imagining and SAL. i wager we would get it as an imaging seeker ingame
So much for a tri-mode seeker
Too bad to expect Gaijin to add the proper guidance for USA
Spoiler
I’m 90% sure it should also be faster than any in-game hellfire.
The apache does not get CIRCM and I think you can only carry 8 of the new missiles.
It does get MAW as a modification and not a pod
