Brimstones FnF mode is needed

it’s not fair that Rafale and Su Flanker got its own FnF missiles that can destroy SPAAs with ease, while Aircrafts with brimstones have to be aware of its surroundings, incoming missiles and its aircraft while guiding its brimstone missile to the target.

Yes I am aware that 16 FnF missiles would be too much but make it a 6 or 8 FnF missiles. Make it balanced.

I don’t think the issue would be the number, but the LOAL mode- for which I suggest this;

But the truth is, Brimstones being limited to SAL is… sad.

Russian and American planes launching KH-38s and Mavericks by the dozens, meanwhile Brimstone operators need to lock on a single target for 30 seconds (which is what it takes for the missiles to travel 7 mere km) in order to hope to hit a target, all while being vulnerable and needing to defend while the FnF-equipped planes are rearming their second batch of missiles after having launched them all from 10+km away.

Remember: FnF Brimstones would be OP, but this is fine;

Its intentionally limited because it would be the best A2G weapon, that place is reserved for the SU27SM for reasons undisclosed to the playerbase

Well
Technicly AASM works as LOAL, it can re-lock to another target, usually in like 50m radius from initial target
Also same for KH-38MT

If nothing else, they should not be limited to being the weakest AGM ontop of no FnF.

Brimstone 2s could be added to the Typhoon and Tornado Gr4 without issue (actually Typhoon never used the Brimstone 1s currently equipped)

They would still be limited to SAL, but would at least have competitive performance to KH-38s, AGM-65s and AASM.

SAL only should ONLY mitigate the quantity advantage, we should not be nerfed any more than that.

Maybe not mmw but ir would be enough
X16 or X18 wouldn’t matter

FnF wouldn’t be good for the game as it is now, but IMO they should make the IOG way more accurate so if the target doesn’t move it will still hit without a laser

Su-27SM has the best air to ground weapons?

I think they are the best cas loadout in the game right now. The sheer quantity of a highly manoeuvrable missile on a great air frame makes for a good combo. I’ve seen people get nukes primarily with it, and personally find it annoying how it can torment you for multiple spawns in a row.

The only caveat is that it has far more counter play than fnf missiles

Why are you claiming that F-16C, Rafale, F-15s, Su-34, etc are all Su-27SM?
You a fanatic of the Su-27?
