Yeah exactly. Ive been TKed a few times by that giant soviet glide bomb thing FAB-3000?
Also the most hilarious thing about this statement is they gave the solution to their own invented issue in the statement: just… don’t give it that feature??

Yeah. Spikes and AJ168s have artificial LOBL seekers
Whether AASMs can track a moving target is debatable
Pretty much every single A2A missile is nerfed quite hard despite both reports and sources
KH-38MT never existed.
But Brimstones must be added in their pre-dual-mode seeker or not at all if people want FnF with them and it must be 100% accurate.
its just… wierd. Especially as Brimstone Dual-mode, 2 & 3s and AGM-114Ls have LOBL modes of operation

Not even that, the seeker we have by technicality is fictional. The missile was originally MMW and had the SAL added later to allow for ground forces (or the aircraft if self-designating was needed) to designate a target, which could either be used until impact (what we have as our only option) or just to cue the MMW onto the correct target…
Community: “Plz add F&F brimstones”
Gaijin: “We wont add F&F Brimstones cuz we dont wanna add LOBL, we will restrict that feature on other missiles”
Community: “Then restrict it on brimstone to add them?”
Gaijin: downs entire bottle of vodka “We couldn’t POSSIBLY add a missile without all its features!”
Community: “You literally JUST said you would though?!”
Gaijin: Already back to cooking up another 12 buffs for the Rafale cuz its fans cried it was becoming “obsolete” again (the winrate dropped by 0.00000001%)

And the Irony is that the SAL is a Man-in-the-loop. Something they wont add to anything else.
Tbh I can live without fnf brimstones, just give me 30x of some gnss ordinance. It’s fun and takes more than 1 braincell. Damn I want that bomblet dispenser for Tornados, doing SEAD runs with it would be so much fun…
Yeah…
Tonkas just need ALARM and BL755/JP233s (and German ones can get AGM-88 and BL755/MW-1)
Typhoon should just get SAL Brimstone 2s, GNSS Spear-3s and IR Spear-Glides.
Job done. No MMW needed

I kinda think we should have something like that though, which implements MAWS tracks, detected RWR pings and engagement zones of SPAA etc like the real EFT scope.
Maybe that’s too in-depth but at least giving you 360 degree coverage would be a good prep.
Horrific. Unplayable, even.

yeah its winrate is alomst as low as 65%
To be honest I don’t think the 90 degrees of the radar scope is going to change the gameplay that much, having an aesa is going to be much bigger than the gimbal limit. For example, the last plane in the game to have a 90 degree radar limit was the mig-29smt on release, and we all know how garbage that plane was even though it had both the best radar missile and best radar in the game at that time.
Really enjoyed the EFT FM in Bullet Hell, most of time if a fight isn’t going your way, you just leave haha. Really shows the power of the EJ200s.

Depending on possible upgrades for this engine ^^

I need an EFT with all the T5 upgrades, as well as EJ230 and AMK and maybe even the TVC nozzle.
Just to see what it could do.

not until gaijin reworks how TVC works on planes
it would be nothing but a detriment in its current implementation
Indeed thats true, TVC normally supplements standard controls iirc they optimised the EFT one to provide the minimal speed loss possible during inputs at high speed in coordination with traditional flight control surfaces.
In game you just bleed everything and EFT already has a slight issue with speed bleed/regain after a turn.
Because among other things the thrust-loss after a high-g maneuver is still not fixed…
This was explored, it was just loss from slowing down at high AOA, less speed > less air in the engine > less thrust, there isn’t anything to fix.
