CN Getting Glide Bombs Before Anyone Else?

Why does CN, not to mention a squadron vehicle, get gliding GPS-guided munitions before any other country? Is it just to make the JF-17 more unique and make people more likely to GE it? RU could easily get the gliding FAB-500 and the US could receive the JDAM-ER.

Exactly! Within the dev-server the glide bombs on the JF-17 have a significantly larger range than any other nonpropelled bomb.

I feel like, similar to the other GPS guided bombs, all countries should have received glide bombs.

dont froget that JF17 got bigger bombs with more TNT equivalent…

Why can’t you guys let the minor nations have something unique for a while? Glide bombs aren’t something that is going to significantly boost a jets performance.

Add it to Israel/Italy for example then
They have even less players

israel is not minor nations?
l dont feel bad that sombody getting somthin uniqe and cool i feel bad when other can get some of these to but dont.
AV 8B+ with GBU 38 and got nerfd and got less bombs the f16c dont get either so what do you mean?
it would be cool if they give to more nation GPS bombs and china will get winged one its would be the right thing to do then give us ussr and china only i seems unfair without logic why italy dont get some? why japan didnt get some to?
GPS guided is cool but what about other nations? what about more variants?

We do need something unique plus after the Chinese server closed Chinese players are spending more and more money on the game so GAIJING probably want another round of GE from us.

Nobody is paying, partly because in comparison to China a lot lower player base just from own nation, after all money is the issue. Same issue as why can’t everyone get spall liners together, cause they can only do this much in a single update, more is just too much work.

Who said F-16 isnt getting any JDAMs? Almost all Toptier jets are getting GPS guided bombs according to latest datamine.
As far as I’m aware AV-8B’s loadout isn’t final.

Its just a random thing. This time China was prioritised and who knows maybe Italy and other minor nations will be prioritised in the future updates.

good to know
but F16? i dont think so… they ofc can add. but, what we know for now is NO it seems to be exclusive to AV 8B and the + one

Think US is getting JDAMS at least, but Chinese players are paying a lot, a potential market to exploit for GAIJING cause most people are still playing WOTB lol.

Regardless the max range of the glide bomb ,in the game you can only throw it to a target within 20 km, because of the limitation of targeting pod.So they’re not that different for now.

again i talking about what we know for now, ofc all can change at the final release

Kinda, but you just can have less speed and altitude for same range
