Can they smack tanks?
Haven’t been able to test but they have a 2.5km lock range, its possible the IR mode is placeholder though
They look very placeholder. They are currently a copy-paste of the AGM-119A Penguin with the following changes:
- 3D model changed
- Diameter changed
- Length Changed
- Mass changed
- Explosive mass / type changed
Everything else (seeker, motor, etc.) is identical

Should Sea Eagles have sea skimming code and should they spin like that?
Yes but I play naval EC so I am a bit biased.
If they’re a copy of the penguin they’ll have the same behaviour ig
Dont think Penguins sea skims currently
Yes
No
Both will be reported
Thank you, didnt think it looked right
What was supposed to change?
If it got a new logic on its approach and terminal phases. Akin to how the Kh59 is behaving
First few Sea Eagle reports in:

Ah64E for the Brit TT on dev but no Brimestones :(
I thought the Apache that tested brimstones was American
In as far as the E wasnt in production for the UK at the time, yes. It would have been an American apache E.

Apparently the DIN 1314ps for CV12’s is under review by devs

More precisely it was a “civilian” Apache operated by Boeing for the tests, modified from the US military production line.
It was flying with a US civil aviation “N” registration painted on the tail boom. Which is the white blurred out mark on the tail in most public images from the tests. And hadn’t had any “United States Army” markings applied.

Brimstone mmW is still considered too OP to add. ignores the LMUR

Also somehow they remain yet to address the existence of MMW obscuring smoke grenades such as M81 or why such a feature couldn’t be implemented, It’s not like IR Obscurants aren’t either.
As proof that they do exist and entered service you have the US’s 66mm (IR/MMW) M81 obscurant smoke grenade;

These smokes would only work against the longbow radar and the such not the seeker in Brimstone as no chaff exists at its wavelength
