LDJAMs are a more reasonable ask for now, probably next major. Laser GBU-39s again, are far more reasonable and actually maybe a more reasonable comparison to how (SAL) Brimstone 2s would be used in game (fire them off at longer range, then reposition and use the laser in terminal phase)

A model for GBU-53 was datamined though, so in a classic gaijin moment, we could see GBU 53 before Laser SDB
A lot gets data-mined but doesnt appear for ages. So doesnt mean too much.
Doesnt also AGM-187 has IR?
This lists only SAL + MMW

- It’s AGM-187A (JAGM-F)
- I’m pretty sure it doesn’t, JAGM-MR does though, but that’s AGM-179x

GBU-53 is very different from Brimstone…
tpod can also be slaved to radar targets.
with Litening G4 (iirc) it can even be used as an IRST but i cant give you a source on that
Here is the thing it shouldnt be the best strike fighter. The eruofighter with the mmw brinstomes would be the best one.
Adding that armament doesnt make itvthe best one when one is gimped to begin with
In reality, the same should occur with the typhoon due to datalink and sensor overlap.
But neither of those exist in the game currently.
The closest thing in form and function would be JAGM-F but I don’t even think that’s in service yet.
GBU-53 isnt a perfect counterpart but at least it is available in large numbers like the Brimstones are
It’s a STRIKE eagle, and it’s a2g loadout is just as held back as the typhoon’s is.
Idk if youve read anything I’ve said except for what you quoted, but I’m not asking for full capabilities GBU-53
I dont know if its just on my end or not, but another report in for the EFT. Whenever i fire the canon, I get black smoke in front of the cockpit

Also threw together a report for the lack of countdown on GNSS+Laser bombs

Was screwing me over last night in GSB and was rather annoying.

Missed that one, but mine does appear to have more details.
And damn the MFDs need some more details. Was considering trying a UI-less match of SIM just using the cockpit MFDs/HUD but way too much information is missing

Yea, the other was also just about the PW4 and does not include the LJDAM
I was going to do pure PW4. But then I thought “Hmm… Is it just PW4 or all GNSS bombs?”
Glad I checked, it’s all
when are we getting the convertible model
