can we compromise with laser SDB (GBU-39)? GPS + Laser isnt that broken
well, you have to admit, it was move no one would have exspected
A: saying CAS is OP
B: buff CAS an month later even more
It hasnt got colour-in-yourself pictures he wont be able to understand it

Handy we have all these Devs working for defence contractors and they are not just military hardware nerds like normal forum posters…
I feel like you might be able to ripple fire and then guide them into sequential targets, but that would take effort, so I understand why it wouldnt be super popular. Its an idea ive been playing with just to switch things up.
its a you problem
Either you all start behaving properly or this won’t end well.

One of the major upgrades for the Eurofighter in the future was a proposed passive missile warning system.
Bazoi is just stitting here waiting for people to slip up now
Doesnt work, you are straight up much faster than the Brimstone. So even with a staggered release, they would impact nearly at the same time, maybe if you were ultra fast you could hit a second target, but generally it would be 1 target per pass.
But yeah, does add some new gameplay options at the very least, ive not tried it yet, but certainly in the Typhoon you can defend yourself if attacked and make repeated passes much faster and easier than the Tornado Gr4, so definetly makes them more viable to use
Issue with that is that a lot of planes dont have the ability to counter SPAAs like Pantsir outside of using standoff munitions.
Typhoon is able to do it due to its agility and speed, but trying to do so in ASSTA1 with only paveway 16s or 24, well theres no counterplay.
Without standoff munitions CAS at top tier is going to be limited to only extremely agile planes that are able to attack SPAAs like pantsir while every other plane (A10s, Tornados, Phantoms, etc.) are either going to have to get lucky or will just suffer.
More better SPAA options for other nations is a good step that i hope gaijin is going to do.

Also a pain managing the TGP, while not flying into the ground and avoiding things shooting at you
at what point do you guys think MMW stuff like the brimstone 2 (which is 100% relevant to EFT btw) will come? i think will come with chaff smoke and better spaa as well as APS systems
I dont mind laser that much as it slows things down a lot, particularly since these are small. The standoff capability still bugs me a ton tho, but atleast it wouldnt be capable of wiping out teams in short periods of time.
I still dont understand why players feel the need to have weapons that outrange the only answer ground players have. Brimstone 1’s already technically outrange every SAM in-game, Brimstone II’s, SDB-1’s, Kh-38M’s, AASM’s, etc… are all super overkill and just wouldnt be fun to play against, as there literally isnt any counterplay

Less of an issue in Sim compared to GRB, but yes, certainly something you have to worry about
Considered upgrades dont mean they are going to be better. We also considered buying the F18E but its not better than a phoon
The only ground vehicles that can defend against MMW radars such as the Eurofighter’s Brimestone 2 are the Abrams with specialized smoke grenades that can block MMW emissions to my knowledge.
I disagree
“Marketing lie” ™
half knowledge by you once again, of course the self proclaimed abrams tankers thinks only abrams can do that lol
