gaijin logic…

i usually have some kind of fuse cause (idk if its still an issue) hitting like a roof MG or other module like that on 0s can make the munition inconsistent. Still remember the time a walleye directly hit the roof of my Ollie Mk 2, and despite making a crater left my tank completely unharmed

what about 6 spice racks

Don’t give them Ideas.
Heeey, Mr. Gaijin, it’s perfectly fine and well reasoned, please don’t change it.

I haven’t got any clips of hitting RU tanks, but they are consistent against even things like the PUMA, which have eaten missiles of mine in the past

Very unlikely, Gaijin seems content with limiting the Spice 250s to 2 racks for now. Happened with the F-16I as well.

Not surprised its not been updated yet

Gotta give them at least 6 months to a year

There’s no clear evidence SPEAR glide has even been test launched, and TBH it bares no real relation to Eurofighter other than a single render of it in flight with a Eurofighter in the background.

Also, reminder to everyone to not neglect your aesa, it can help you very much even in cas :))

No, which is why Spice-250 makes a good stopgap (though mockups and brochures have been enough for Gaijin to add KH-38MTs)

But figuring it would be usable much like Brimstone is on the Typhoon

Too date, i’ve yet to use the GMTI once, but I might now have a play with GMTI + Spice in ASB. Though the Mach1 launch limit does make that clunky

Tbf its copy and pasted from the C currently

I really don’t feel we’re going to get more than 8 FnF for a long long time.
Spear Glide could be a sidegrade if it has no Mach limit, otherwise i don’t see Gaijin giving us more than 6 anyway.

Yeah, if they do start adding more than 8x FnF, then it would be good to explore additional spice-250 mounts or one of the other options on the other mounts, but for now this is fine.

So thats 1 box ticked in the A2G department.

Just need:

  • SAL Brimstone 2s
  • All our missing GBU options
  • long range stand-off weapon (GNSS)
