“Moreover, reaching 40 degrees AoA is not possible for a missile of such design, as Brimstone, as it doesn’t have neither big enough control surfaces nor thrust vectoring.”
Thanks for the opinion

I think the problem with the brimstone is the 7G placeholder that copy pasted from the hellfire missile.
So TLDR
Vikhrs cant do it therefore we dont understand how Brimstone can do it

Believe me defence contractors will find a way. There’s a reason being on time is already impressive and being early is practically unheard of
Welcome back btw

Anybody know where to find brimstone missile specs? Like G limit, max speed release, etc.
Data sheet says nothing but most unofficial sources put it at 10G-15G
Brimstone is limited to 7G’s atm
Yeah as you said in typical Gaijin fashion it’s a copy paste of a Hellfire.
Like the CRV7 is a copy and paste of a Hydra!
That’s just flat out untrue…
Ok it was when it was originally added
with gaijin refusing to buff the brimstone, and the EFT still lacking a FnF weapon we should campaign to get the Typhoon added to the EFTs I didnt realise they built mock ups of the weapon and since we have had the ASRAAM test fired it should be enough to get it added to the game
you are switching up ASRAAM and SRAAM
SRAAM: Short Range Air to Air Missile
ASRAAM: Advanced Short Range Air to Air Missile
ASRAAM is in service with the RAF and is actively used on the EF
im talking about the Typhoon that as far as I am aware was built off of the same body that became the ASRAAM
Pretty bummed out the CRV7 dont have their other warheads and stuff as well. Gaijin really undercooked a really intereating piece of kit.
Also, the fact the Hydra-70 became the NATO standard instead of the CRV7 is a tragedy.

The source document says Brimstone can be fired against targets up to 40° off boresight, and in game you can indeed hit targets that are 40° off boresight.
@DevilO6 you could do a report on the flight path fairly easily, but frankly I don’t know if it would make things better or worse with the way Gaijin model missiles.
I like this Part:
“Thus, apparently, the missile uses (or can use) some other guidance law, which we don’t have any information about. Feel free to create new bug report if you find any publically available (!) information on that topic”
