In what world are Top-Down Mavericks doing this little damage, like i’m genuinely shocked as to how gaijin assumes a warhead that size coming from an 80° angle wouldn’t just insta kill these tanks, let alone a ‘crit’ and ‘hit’, either fix the god awful guidance characteristics or increase explosive damage from the HEAT warhead

I think the main issue is that I don’t think AGM-65s have Overpressure modelled?
I’m pretty sure they do but it got reduced recently. For a day or so they were obliterating everything and it didn’t last.
A replay will be nice.
Issue with volumetirc, the Maverick hit his MG which caused the Maverick to detonate early and send the majority of the explosion into his ERA. Blame a poorly made mechanic not the Mavericks.
My main issue with mavericks is their range. Like they would never be able to hit target at 20+ km like irl, they outright fall out of the sky sooner
Do you know what AGM doesn’t have this restriction?…….
A maverick is too weak. If this was to impact at this angle in real life it would be an instantaneous pop. Regardless of those few bricks of era.
dont worry, its not just mavericks that dont do damage, these two were both in the same match and neither killed despite directly hitting the tanks
ERA ated most damage.
It’s almost like…… the era is too strong? WOW.
That can’t be true.
edit
Heavy in the sarcasm, not being rude
neither of them landed on ERA though or at least the second absolutely didnt, the first might have hit the edge of some
Oh sorry. Looks like from the photo the tip of the bomb was landing on it…
Era stopping bombs is too funny lmao
Just to frustrate you guys more.
“I have found times varying around 9s (+23%). And thus an average speed of ~289 m/s. In the included document, it is also mentioned acceleration of the 65G model is approximately 17Gs (~167 m/s/s) and 65D models 22.5G (~220 m/s/s), this isn’t the case in-game currently.”
“The armor penetration of this warhead is approximately the same as the M72 LAW with antipersonnel performance approximately 70 percent of that of the M151 HE warhead.”
just in case you can’t do math, and to make it blatantly obvious, as per the report said HEAT charge has a 87.5% the fragmentation generation capability of the GPHE warhead, on a TNTe basis, so the reduced overpressure is effectively a “Gaming convention” to ensure the use of GPHE warheads, it’s a shame that GPHE designs for Western modular Rockets are practically entirely absent for the 5 & 2.75" airframes.
imagine how great the game would be if they gave us proxy fuse HE zunis

They could also add Flechette warheads for both the 2.75 and 5" as well. It’s really quite strange the the TBA Multi-Dart 100 is the only one in game. What surprises me most is that there somehow isn’t even a Soviet Tree equivalent as one would expect.
