Do I see that right, that the tandem warhead is blocked by ERA multiple times? A warhead specifically designed to defeat ERA through its pre-charge?

Correct, because Tandem doesnt work in game as an Tandem against ERA
Found the report

Wonderful, so not only weak because of its small charge (6,2 kg + 0,3 kg), which is more than enough in reality, but also because of a bugged implementation. Even bugs seem to favor certain types of missiles…
SAL Brimstone 2 for the winter update ?
They could make it mmW and it would still be balanced because of the small charge and the bug ^^
But super sekrit soviet documents clearly state that soviet ERA is immune to tandem warheads.
Would mmW just be an onboard TWS gmti with how it is in game?
If it’s like ARH missiles where you can only fire if another sensor detected the target, then yes. Otherwise they could make the Brimstone either LOAL with a really small search sector or you point it at a location and the missile tries to track that point (no matter if a tank or a tree).
If it can only attack detected targets then it will be extremly limited in effectiveness as you can only lock targets which move (and as most SAMs don’t move it will be near impossible to fire at them with Brimstones). Doesn’t matter if they stop after firing as the missile seeker itself could work differently by signal tracking.

Oh god. Im now 100% imagining they will do this, make them useless against SAMs

All for the sake of their definition of “Balance”. (Insert custom “Thanos Balanced” meme here)

Meanwhile:
LMUR
Kh-38MT
JAGM
Wasn’t there also the problem that only the LMUR has the correct lofting implemented ingame (Kh-38MT being an exception)?

Yep
Yep, JAGM-MRs I think are quite nerfed because they just use the C&P of the Hellfire which is incorrect and was reported years ago
perfectly modeled when it arrived, meanwhile pars and spikes are forgotten. Crazy how that works

Even the Hellfire lofting isn’t correctly implemented AFAIK (including Spikes and PARS).
Yeah exactly. Was reported years ago though
So they have the correct code, but it’s so godly that it only works for a single missile ingame? xD
Of course, soviets suffer. It would be unfair if others got historically accurate modeling
Ye, some stuff is very “Interesting”, like I wont say RU bias, but Bugs which make the ERA Ignore the TANDEM, or missiles which actually Loft how they should are to 99% in this one nation placed…
So yea, surely an Coincidence
