okay and does German typhoons use it ?
Yes, I want them to have the best A2G as they suck in literally everything else. That’s how a pro/con system should work, but some still can’t comprehend such a basic system.
Britian uses ASRAAM
Germany and Italy use IRIS-T

This isn’t a “pro/con” system, this is a “me want broken toy and i don’t want anybody else to have something similar” system.
Su-34 is way better than all other stirke aircraft in game except the F-15E.
If the Su-34 gets KH-38s then the Tornado, A-10 and Harrier should 500km Cruise missiles by your logic

They use IRIS-T which is a very good TVC missile but not ASRAAM
I don’t think Gaijin would let typhoons to have FnF brimstones, would be similar to the Grom 1s that were removed for being too broken maybe ?
We’re talking about a hypothetical IR F&F Brimstone (basically smaller Maverick Ds) and the jets being limited to carrying just six of them (i.e basically the same amount as Rafale gets of Hammers and F-16s get of Mavericks).
Grom 1s were removed due to the base killing potential in Air modes and not GRB.
Grom 1s likely wont be added until all nations get equal performance cruise missiles
FnF Brimstones were removed due to the quantity advantage but they made up some really lame excuses for it

You mean click on the map, send your missile and pop out to laser the targets few seconds before impact ?
Hard gameplay for something that outshines Su-34 in everything else.
Everything should have it pros.
Not my problem your biased mind can’t accept his machines are actually worse at doing something at the same BR.
Yes it does as it it’s only advantage while having several major disadvantages.
Different philosophies, ASRAAM is intended to bridge the gap between the merge and employment of ARH missiles, basically the UK accepted that IR missiles are a near 100% death sentence so lets sling off mine before they can sling off theirs. As a result ASRAAM is faster with higher acceleration and worse pull (but still better with the current highest pulling missile in-game R73), ASRAAM has far higher range also.
IRIS-T however is optimised for maximum pull with insane maneuverability think the SRAAM missile ingame but faster, with higher pull and the stats turned up to 1000x, also with higher range than SRAAM even if SRAAM had its correct range.
Its a difference in philosophy, IRIS-T is a more lethal missile when you can use it, but you have much more room to use ASRAAM.
ASRAAM also beat Python 4 in trials though we don’t have the actual report to determine where it’s better and where it could be worse, the seeker is obvious though as ASRAAM is IIR and PY4 is UV+IR.
(Also worth noting IRIS-T can be slaved to the EFT’s MAWS to intercept incoming missiles).

So asraam is more comparable to like a r27et if it was introduced to the game?
Yes it is.
Not understanding all vehicles should have their pros is actually not my problem.
CAS has to be able to handle both ground and air threats.
We all know how “strong” it is against air threats.
Since when is Brimstone an LGBU?
Not my problem your biased mind can’t accept his machines are actually worse at doing something at the same BR.
My guy, this entire argument is based on me saying “If one can’t have F&F then then nobody else should” and you straight up went “No, Russia should but nobody else”.
You are the biased one here, and apparently you can’t even comprehend the things I am saying otherwise we wouldn’t even be having this conversation.
Yes it does as it it’s only advantage while having several major disadvantages.
Confirmed. This guy wants to be able to do this for free:
And he doesn’t want anybody else to have the same level of capability.
Yes ASRAAM is best thought of as a higher pulling R27ET for ingame purposes as R27ET is seeker limited.
IRIS-T is like a SRAAM with more range and again better pull.
Also both would have unflareable seekers.

So Su-34 with R-77s and a PESA radar is weak, but a Tornado is strong vs air threats?
From a few picture’s that I’ve seen here before there was one of the Italian EFT having Asraams mounted and Britain having iris-t mounted
Brimstone isn’t IR so there isn’t a problem with it on a western jet.
Yes as they suck at everything else.
What’s the point of an aircraft if it’s subpar at every single metric ?
Says the dude that can’t understand how pro/con system should work.
Meanwhile you want to do the same thing on your UFO platform that can challenge air threats much better.
You aren’t here for balance, it’s pretty clear.
It’s like EFT doesn’t exist.
