As of now there is 3 major countermeasures mods for each plane, each being regular Flare/Chaff, BOL for planes fitted with BOL Electromechanical CM Dispenser, and MAW. As of now some planes that has all three of these mods doesn’t have it as part of a singular “Countermeasures” modifications while plane like Rafale, Mirage, Typhoon, Frogfoot SM3, J11A or Hornet get MAW - BOL - Flare/Chaff or a mix between two / three of them in a singular modification package.
It is time to unify all countermeasures mods into a single mod instead of spreading them all across the tree for planes like Gripen, F-16AM and Tonka GR.4, especially tonka where CM and MAWS is sometimes life or death.
This would only make other modifications cost even more RP to research. When it comes to high tier planes, having more mods to research makes stock grinding way easier.
Eh, i strongly believe that anything related to CMs at this point should be baseline , not mod.
If they want CM mods , they should start implementing ECM pods and characteristics because we already play with gen 4,5 in game and even for the later gen 4s their survivability is heavily based on ECM and ECCMs in reality.
The game instead does the missiles stupid in occasions.
So , since clutter interference is already in game … they should go for pods for modules and give flares/chaff baseline.
