What’re the odds Gaijin programme’s Brimstone to aim for the turret neck on armoured vehicles? I was reading up and it can selectively hit tracks, mantlets, engine decks, turret necks.
That gun is lacking in length… girthy build tho XD
Fun fact, Scimitar cant deploy flaps over 640 kph
It can grow

They probly caught it in a crash net lol
I was doing some research about the Phantom F.3 and am coming on conflicting evidence of it containing equipment for VTAS.
On one hand, one thing I read said that VTAS equipment stayed on the helmets and/or the helmets were converted back to standard, and VTAS wasn’t used, and on another hand some other places say that the VTAS system was never installed on any of the F-4Js that would wind up becoming Phantom F.3s.
And some other places say that the VTAS equipment would’ve been retrofitted to previous blocks of Phantoms and maybe one of those became a Phantom F.3 at some point. I really don’t know, is there a manual or something I can check? Maybe pictures of the pilots’ helmets?
The weapons manual confirms the switches and radar support was there for the VTAS helmet. But to my knowledge the helmets didn’t retain the sight.

So, anyone else think its about time we start seeing GPS guided Paveways? I think they would be an interesting F&F weapon system. Especially if you could designate multiple targets before dropping
It really wouldn’t be all that OP other than how it’s unjammable. I.e TV, IR, and laser guided bombs can be blocked by a smokescreen.
Well… The target could just move as well. The GPS coordinate I dont think could be updated after it left the aircraft.
It would be great fun for taking out static targets in ARB and ASB, but in GRB it would only be good for knocking out those camping/SPAA not moving much.
Do you mean JDAMs? Their benefit is being able to be carried on more stations than Paveways, being easier to toss bomb and being FnF. They would be a big upgrade for dealing with SPAA, and if they give the LJDAM you get the best of both worlds with moving targets updating.

Essentially, I think Britain used ePaveways and not JDAMs. But for other nations, yeah JDAMs
Im doubting we would get dual mode bombs initially. Force the choice between taking either Laser Guided or GPS guided bombs. though in the future they would be good.
But yeah, the ability to drop multiple at once at multiple targets within an area or loft a load at a single target from further away would be great fun. Also opens the door for Glide bombs and Cruise missiles too
