ARMAMENT – AH-64.net
The AH-64E has the ability to carry Brimstones and SPIKE’s.
“On 14 July 2016, it was reported that the AH-64 had successfully completed testing of the MBDA Brimstone anti-armor missile. In January 2020, the U.S. Army announced it was fielding the Spike NLOS missile on AH-64E Apaches as an interim solution to acquire new munitions that provide greater stand-off capabilities.”
Brimstones would most likely be too broken for it, but SPIKE’s definitely should be considered to be added to the AH-64E in-game currently.
Brimstone 1s would have no greater range than Hellfires and Brimstone 2s would have greater range to that of JAGM-MR, but they wouldnt be MMW. They would be SAL only. And so much weaker.
Yup, you’re right, that was my mistake. Seeing that it went from anti-tank warhead to a multipurpose warhead and how mp warheads are modeled, yeah, it’ll probably suck.
In fact, I wonder why they need either Brimstone or Spike when they have JAGM?
Unless they give us their JAGM, too. Just like what we had Skink<->Ram II offer.
Especially when we can’t even get SAL Brimstone in our AH Mk 1.
I’m guessing they’ll give us JAGM MR on the grounds of Ah64E = Ah64E but they have in the passed denied Britain a loadout option because it’s not in our inventory and JAGM MR are not
What I meant was half-gelded(/s) JAGM-MR(IR/SAL), which currently exists without MMW seeker, but well, I get your point.
As a joke, I can’t wait to see AH-64E(US) get either one of Spike or Brimstone(SAL) while we get nothing but startsteak again. (Even with no brimstone SAL)
