So with weapons without IOG/GPS you need LOS to perform this kind of attack. With Brimstone you don’t ever, the kill box in autonomous mode is fixed in a forward position ahead the aircraft.
This means you can hold at tree top level, outside of any SPAA’s ability to see or detect you under any circumstances, you can then spam out some Brimstone towards the spawn. The smokeless missile won’t be seen, the launch will never be detected.
No going further off topic, move to the EFT thread or British Weapons one to discuss this.
Woops, thought it was 🤣
The Source directly refers to the MMW band, not radar.
So I’d at least consider that the M81 takes precedence in that sense, since The MMW band is directly referenced vs “no existing system uses the band”.
Sure you could get around by coherence checking returns but that requires the returns to be interrogated, and Missiles like the Sparrow would also benefit but as it hasn’t been modeled.
Chaff-able Brimstone and assuming all nations have chaff mixed in their smoke grenades is still a better compromise than no F&F Brimstone at all …
Not that most people would actually see the missile and use chaff …
Not that most people actually see the current TV/IR guided F&F missiles and use smoke anyways …
Just pointing out
Could be added only for ARB, Just for the fun of using It against bots
There are so many types of weapons that would be exceptionally fun in ARB/ASB that have been denied because of tanks in another gamemode. rather annoying.
Conclusion: planes being available in ground battles ruins both ground AND air battles
Fr they should make that some weapons are only available in air battles
Such is life in the “combined battles” reality.
I’d have a reason to play Sweden air if they were allowed to use BK90 Mjolnir in air battles, that’s a pretty neat weapon. Also neat would be US made smart anti-tank cluster bombs. Instead we get SAL Brimstone and a load of dingo’s kidneys.
Ground players ruining everything fr
SCAF really doesn’t look like it will last for long with the recent interview (it is in french but i found a link on youtube so you should be able to have subtitles) of the CEO of Dassault Aviation.
There is an article about it too.
Summary :
As said already few times Dassault would have no problems doing it alone.
And compared to the Neuron despite Dassault supposed to be leading the project, this is not reflected with the current shares (1/3, 1/3, 1/3 vote and (?) work shares) and that is why Dassault has to convince others 100% of the time making it so the program is this slow and suggesting that this program would not be completed.
While the Neuron was 51% Dassault and Saab totally accepting Dassault as a leader since they admitted they had less knowledge leading to in the end better results than what was the characteristics searched by the DGA with limited manpower, controlled cost and fast.
Otherwise, it was said that SCAF was not really competing against the Rafale except in terms of finance, that the Rafale was cheaper compared to the F-35, and that Dassault was not open to give Belgium work straight up considering they bought the F-35 previously and there was a talk about a space plane ???.
So uh, Dassault wants to leave a European coop fighter program because they don’t have enough control over it and find the equal shares system inconvenient… well that reminds me something else
Now we gonna have two amazing fighters instead of one, like we did last time :D
The thing is that the shares are 60% airbus when the project is supposed to be lead by Dassault, it would be three differents company fair enough but at best it should be something like 49% with the current things.
Whatever, can’t wait to see what Dassault will cook this time… Marcel would be so proud
Is that news website reliable ? https://idrw.org/india-set-to-pursue-g2g-deal-for-110-rafale-jets-dassault-to-take-full-control-of-dral/
Because it would be a pretty big deal.
The site itself claims to be reliable, but I admit I have some doubts about this. However, it seems that a Rafale purchase is underway, as even some French sites are talking about it. For the exact figure, we will probably have to wait for an official announcement to get a clearer idea.
Well, after some research, it seems that we are on a basis of 26 aircraft according to the ANI, which actually makes more sense than the first figure announced.
Ace crew, finally
I am not talking about the Rafale m deal but the rafale for the airforce, and it does fit the MRCA2 thingy with their 110-114 rafale (old article)
