Oooh, 8 FnF bombs, thats good, but actual Brimstones would have its place too
Still hope we get the other aspects of our A2G resolved.
- Missing multiple GBU options
- SAL Brimstone 2s
- Some form of long range stand-off GPS weapon with a decent warhead (GBU-64, Storm Shadow or Taurus)
but it certainly resolves the lack of FnF option, at least till MMW
well spear III would solve them being scared of MMW and it team killing people
Yeah, it would, but only the soviets are allowed 100+km weapons at the moment

I’m not saying that Captor-E has become bad, but it is again “catching up” and not “leading”.
Hmmm, looks like an diffrent pylon
Cope, maybe more SPICE? (You never have enough F&F stuff ) :-)
According to ESUT were I found it, the Source is Rafael

There was a bug report it shouldn’t be able to HMS to that extent should be 60deg and not the full 120.

Does this somehow cancel the possibility of doing this through STT or TWS?
300 km range*

Really? Is the fuel in that small missile body enough for that as it doesn’t really differ in its dimensions from the default SPICE 250? The sources I found also say “around 81 miles/130 km”.
Seems they somehow made it work.

Oof, sounds kinda like black magic or the range of other missiles like the SPEAR 3 is heavily understated.
You have to fit the engine and the fuel tanks into that small frame without changing the dimensions of the missile/bomb body too much after all… Could that be a typo in the brochure? 200 km would sound way more realistic even if that’s still a very long range. Speed would also be interesting to know.
accurate :P

MBDA have a track record of doing that
SPICE 250’s glide variant has a 100km standoff range per rafael. I suspect these are the most optimal of optimal conditions it’s in.
@Smin1080p_WT Spice250 can be only equipped on 1 out of the 3 pylons. Is this for balancing reasons or a lack of sources?
So maximum height, at maximum speed with tailwind during the whole flight envelope.
