Seems like absolute cancer tbh. IG this is US brimstone equivalent?
yeah kind of.
Yes.
But, IIRC, JAGM-F programm was freezed.
either that or SDB II for more guidance modes
Guess we’ll live and see.
too bad they never went through with powered SDB II. JAGM-F isnt half as bad as that would be
You say?
hopefully they announce air launch tests by the time a later F-15E is added. should give time for them to add it to the EX
Hope they will just improve on this one. It doesn’t even make sense to have this 1990’s jet with a JHMCS and SDBs. I suppose they will just give it more upgrades
they might give it JHMCS-D or JHMCS II, and they probably will give it EPAWSS, RMP, and ADCP II upgrades
I don’t know. Yeah, RMP, and some small other things yea but I think that the EPAWSS will only come with the EX
Really? EPAWSS would make sense since F-15E did get it, and would be fitting for the peak strike eagle
doesnt matter much given that they are giving russia weapons that dont seem to have ever had a functional prototype, cancelled projects that were tested is much better than that
JAGM-F range shorter GBU-53 Stormbreaker
At present, F/A-18E/F Super Hornet (Block III) deployed Stormbreaker against houti
You trade range for significant time to target advantages. And it’s not like you are limited to carrying one or the other. You could very easily carry 4 of each with only 1 CFT loaded for A2G munitions which gives you flexibility in your engagements.
Time to target matters a lot. Forunately, both weapons can be employed by the EX thus you end up having to choose between them
I get what you mean but there should be a diffrence between the E and the EX. The EPAWSS contributes to it. It’s up to gaijin to decide
There is also engine and airframe difference, as well as the extra wing hardpoints
Fair enough. Who knows? We will see. Everything is possible with gaijin. Seeing what they did with ma boi F-20. I hope the YF-23 will be event of squadron. Or maybe we could get an experimental line in the tt
