The AH-1Z is missing it’s AGM-179 JAGM, Looking at statements by the marines it does indeed field the AGM-179 JAGM. I don’t know if you guys already know about this and are working on it or maybe it was overlooked? I would love to see this thing in it’s full potential as you guys add more fire and forget missiles to helicopter’s

Make an issue in a wt issue site using your resources.
Also currently we have jagm’s (MR) variant so you might need to check that ah1z had carried the MR variant.

I prefer it being 12.0 instead of 13.0 personally.

In cases like this I wish they would just add a 10k RP foldered helicopter to the tree… So basically you get both options and the one with JAGs are easy to research. You could just pick what you prefer.

They added AIM120s to the Italian Harrier that I LOVED playing at 12.3, pushed it up to 13 and completely changed the plane. Gaijin dont play their own game so will never understand how these ‘upgrades’ don’t actually make the vehicle more fun to play :(

Could get JAGM-MR (SAL) which would remain at the same BR as top tier hellfire-only platforms are over-brd to begin with

Exactly what I was thinking. The AH-1Z is definitely 11.7, maybe 11.3 worthy without the SAL JAGMs…

There is no MR variant IRL; the missile has two seeker types. Gaijin made it two missiles, so they didn’t have to implement a way to change the seeker type

Gaijin hates the AH-1Z. It took years for it to get it’s Hellfire IIs. They also still didn’t give it it’s DAIRCM suite (AAQ-45), it’s RWR is artificially nerfed too (it should be APR-39D). The AH-1Z is one of, if not, the best helicopter in the world right now, yet Gaijin doesn’t want it to be so.
Personally, i still think “advanced” weapon loadouts should increase BR when equipped, this way you don’t have to add different vehicle models in order for them to fit certain BR range.

But whatever, the game is in a terrible state and adding useless things seems to be the course of action for Gaijin.

Maybe for helis, but definitely not for tanks.
