Actualy overall its a nerf.
It gets an i creased range yes. But it requires high altitude and speed.
Overall speed and launches from from slow low flying planes got nerfed, if i understood it.
Considering high flying planes get easily targeted now. Its actualy god for us i would say
nope it dosent
how is it going to use that range if you need a seeker lock to fire it?
so it still only has a range of ~20km in which you get the point lock
only the Kh-38ML benefitted from it since it can be fired without it needing a seeker lock
(since it is laser guided)
Give this report some support for some hopefully useful EF CAS.
Well its forwarded, its only hoping now
I have a few questions for you if you don’t mind me asking.
Where does it say in the sources that it was integrated?
RAFAEL, Diehl Defence, and HENSOLDT announce Teaming Agreement for SPICE 250 ER | Diehl Defence
Isn’t it supposed to be integrated into the Eurofighter EK which I assume we don’t have in-game?
Could you please look at this report? A tech mod passed the report even though the SPICE bombs were never integrated on any Eurofighter it seems and that it is intended for the Eurofighter EK which is not yet to be delivered until 2030.
It seems that Godvana was also admittedly aware of this.
Because those articles are for EK and are not relevant to my report? SPICE 250 has been displayed with EF as early as 2017.
On page 2, the section “Luft-Boden-Bewaffnung” clearly refers to the Eurofighter, but it does not mention the Eurofighter EK (Electronic Combat / ECR variant). Instead, it talks in general about Eurofighter armament (the Mk-83 Trojan Improved Penetrator and the SPICE-250 family).
The text and images focus on air-to-ground strike capability, not electronic warfare or SEAD/DEAD roles. The EK (Elektronischer Kampf) Eurofighter is a separate Bundeswehr program (with Hensoldt, Saab, etc.), and that angle is not referenced in this brochure.
Was it an airshow kind of thing where weapons were displayed with the aircraft?
These are accepted criteria, but they rely heavily on developer discretion.
For a report such as this, proof of integration matters no? Sources can state that weapons are intended or planned for an aircraft without mentioning a specific variant, would that fly necessarily in a report?
Find proof the KH-38MT ever existed beyond mock ups and then come back to us for that.
The SPICE-250 family is described as “Munition für den Eurofighter” (munitions for the Eurofighter), with details on production in Germany. Again isn’t covering the EK at all in brochure nor SEAD/DEAD roles. It was photo’d in front of a Eurofighter display in 2017 before EK existed.
This is enough for consideration. As I mentioned as its not a service weapon, it leans heavily in the dev’s discretion like any other non standard weapon fit.
Are these SPICE bombs not shown under Eurofighters displayed for Tranche 5?
Again, SPICE 250 was advertised with EF long before Tranche 5…
Right, I understand that, my overall point being could it have been displayed also with Tranche 4 which we don’t necessarily have in-game either? The overall point being for the aircraft variant in-game.
Let alone the fact that Tranche doesnt necessarily mean much. RAF is only now retiring T1s but theyve been kept on par with the T2/T3s just fine
Tranches are build standards, it does not preclude previous Tranches from getting the same software through the Phase Enhancements programs. The only thing that doesn’t fit this trend is Tranche 1 which different in build to Tranche 2 and later.
You want to talk about aircraft variants receiving equipment they shouldn’t have? How about the Rafales HMD and extra Micas?
