That doesn’t change the fact that MMW without LOAL modes would work essentially identically to current IR/IIR systems in-game. It’s almost like they specifically chose the worst possible implementation for “‘some reason’”… Curious…
And this is perfectly on topic, as it’s going to be the same reason the F-15E (Late)/RMP/ whatever you want to call it is probably not going to come with the GBU-53. Hell it’s probably the same reason the current F-15E doesn’t have GBU-39B, Laser SDB, because then a ‘"certain nation’" might actually be contested in ground matches.
That’s where the issue lies. It’s correct to think that having 15-18 FnF agms will be tremendously broken and I agree with Gaijin that adding it without the proper counters will cause a whole lot of problems.
But when they say something like this while also allowing the Kh-38s to be in the game and in fact soon after that Devblog, they released the teaser which showcased the the Su34 that can carry 6 of them? How can anyone take them seriously?
They could’ve just added multi-spectrum smoke to all top tier mbts, disabled LOAL and called it good. But they didn’t. This is such a double standard.
You are right, but the ideas of introducing more kinds of AGM seem to be favour for other players.
Modernized jets are really needed for US currently, you see since last major update almost other countries got abilities to screen and know the type of airplanes. For American ones can only lock on to count the numbers of engines.
I suppose gaijin would add F-15E RMP (around 2018 ~ present) with avionics and armament from F-15EX (not all because not ready AIM-120D & AIM-120D-3 AMRAAM and AGM-158B JASSM-ER until 2030)
Duel mode GPS & Laser guided bomb ?
At present, JAGM-F & JAGM-MR status test or initial operational capability (IOC) ?
I’d actually like if the radar devs sat down and did a better job modelling the current radars. A lot of the modern radars are missing some key capabilities, such as most of their air to ground modes, and I also have a sneaking suspicion most are significantly underperforming in their search volumes as well.
Imo a radar upgrade and MAWS is more important to me than more CAS weapons that dont fix the issues we already have
A radar upgrade would fix the horrible TWS and radar bugs we are plagued with that dont happen on the PESA/AESA radars
And the MAWS would provide sensor fusion and more situational awareness in a mode where it increasingly is becoming important Especially now since most top tier nations have it
I get it everyone hates the KH-38 So do i But there are already several other threads talking about it Why does this one have to be in there too?
These missiles that you mentioned may shake the dominance of “certain country”, only because the very best missiles has been introduced into game, except that exaggerated R-37M. So I am in a negative position about that.
