Speed > Seeker, people using the Su-30MK and other KH-29T/TE platforms have major success despite the limitations of the seekerhead.
As far as no one besides Russia and China have SPAA that can act as a CIWS, then speed will always be King for AGMs
Major success based off of YT videos where they flew in straight to the battlefield while trying to find something to shoot at ?
Seeker that only tracks from around 6km away and is easily smoked off can’t be compared to Hammers.
oh you can with the new spaa, simple scout can get you 3x with one missile.
Right so the missile body is part of a family of missiles so no issues with mounting or firing etc and they built atleast one seeker for display;
Same example is advertised by the manufacturer;
and the brochure outlines operation;
This meets all the tick boxes for a prototype weapon to be included in the game. Even if it isn’t a production system at present.
kh29 wont do better in top tier then the mavs.
hammer are destroying the game same as the kh38mt.
I am consistently shocked by how rare Rafale multikills are, they happen on a 10-15 match basis compared to the consistency of having 2x Su-30 + Su-34 available in a lineup
i guess your not aware of the sp cost nerf of the cas.
you can only bring 1 cas plane today.
But it hasn’t been demonstrated on the majority of platforms it is present on in game; that’s what is apparently disqualifying the GPU-5/A on “regular” F-15’s, even though theoretical evidence to the contrary exists, even if not actually pursued.
The issue is really the disconnect between what can be implemented by the Dev’s and the standards required for submissions of a store as a suggestion, one is much higher than the other.

Why not give America AGM-169? Yes it was cancelled in 2007 but we have proposed specs and sources like the KH38MT has. Both are similar in range and we can give the AGM-169 just the IR mode and not the radar mode since it had both. This would be a good balance for american CAS alongisde Russia and Japan.
But it doesnt show the actual functionality we have in game. None of the brochures show that the MT should be able to track moving targets as small as tanks.
As with all prototype weapons it is developer discretion.
Numerous weapons have firing modes that have been adapted to something present in game, AASM Hammer, AJ.168 and there are more but can’t remember off the top of my head.
I cant think of a single weapon that got an adaptation that might completely be outside of the capabilities of said weapon tho.
AJ.168 is only Man In the Loop guidance what do you mean? hahaha The whole Maverick style tracking is nonsense and only an ingame adaptation.
And AASM Hammer IIR doesn’t function like a AGM-65D in real life. It is a IIR Scene Matching weapon just like Storm Shadow / SCALP
Also I would not be surprised to find out PGM-2000/500 IIR are also scene matching weapons.

This one’s a good choice, but it’s not fire and forget.
Its a glide bomb essentially and can’t hit moving targets.
its ir guided, it can targets tanks
It can be relocked on tanks, but it can’t autmoatically guide itself onto moving targets. Thus not fire and forget. Only the harpoon class AGM84 is fire and forget and can hit moving targets like ships since it uses radar.
i am not the one saying it
Oh wait my bad i thought you were talking about the slam agm84

Yeah all of those are adaptations for in game usage, because not every type of guidance is modeled in game. For the 38MT its complete Gaijin guesswork which nicely shows the problem with adding weapon that have at best flimsy sources.
