F-15I Receiving Standoff Weapons

Gaijin when implementing direct counters to the best SPAA in game…

They wont

At least let f15i get agm65,i dont care what else ,i just what balance.

also the AGM-142 Popeye too!!! not just the SPICE-1000/2000, just 2 AGM-142 would be great i dont care if i lose 4 air to air missile we need a FnF missile with the capability to counter the pantsir we are not asking for something of another world we are asking for something reasonable.

Spice 250 would be too powerful rn

They could do what they did to Brimstone and add it with only some of it’s functionality. For example modeling it as a regular IR seeking fire and forget bomb, without LOAL

That way the standoff range would be limited to how far the seeker sees ground targets or how far they render.

It would be like a small GBU-15

Its not. First of all it might be balanced by quantity. Lets say two racks of it for F-16 and maybe 3 racks for F-15 (or two as well). We are not asking for 16 and 28 respectively, which is definetely too much.

Right now most of mavericks carriers have 6 of them. So having 8 of Spice 250 whould compensate for its lower speed. Its also still is a bomb so you will have to get a certain position in order to drop it, like speed, angle and altitude, while mavs have no such problems at all.

And what are we even talk about when it comes to being too powerful? Israel permanently playing against pantsirs, which is going to recieve 24 missiles instead of 12. Should I also mention existance of Kh-38 in game? I literally did a 52 K/D on su-25sm3. Youre telling me its going to be stronger then this with addition of 8 glide bombs with copy/paste seeker of agm-65D (again, we dont ask for all its historical features)?

Im sorry if it sounds rude, Im not trying to be mean. Just not very good at english.

Why ask for gimped weapons when better options are available? We have SPICE 1000/2000 that could be added instead. Whats the point of nerfing SPICE 250 capabilities just so they could be added now?

Ok so when I said SPICE 250 I really was thinking about the whole SPICE family of bombs. I see no issue with adding these if LOAL is not included.

POINT locked FnF ordnance, be it TV, IR guided Mav or GBU will switch to TRACK when it detects something “valid” in point of impact.

Rearm Israeli top tier to domestic AAM/AGM and presto, you get decently unique “copypaste”.

Even more so as Israeli aviation is rather IR centric, getting Python 4+Derby instead 9M+120A might be interesting tradeoff.

The only way to add SPICE is to model their seekers like Mavericks in game as there’s no other way of guidance apart from GPS that you could add and making them GPS only would be too much on my opinion.

Problem with SPICE 250 is that you can take many of them, even more than Mavericks which they are superior to. SPICE 1000/2000 isnt that big of a problem mainly because of carrying capability of 4. SPICE 2000 would prob be the best for the game rn due to limited range, simpler guidance and carrying capability.

Gaijin can give israel domestic A/G weapons and limit their cpabilities. That does not mean to not make then fnf but rather use a simple ir or tv seeker like we already have in the game

I wouldn’t say model their seekers like the maverick, I would say model their seekers like the GBU-15 but make it usable with the targeting pod

GBU15 and Mavericks work the same way in game.

Oh yea I forgot lmao

Pantsir for Israel confirmed!!!1!!!11!!!

Close, but not quite. At least for independent usage

So their initial guidance is GPS, so you will still have to target something via the same method as the JDAM. No over the horizon stuff. The difference is, as it is falling it can recognize targets by internal comparison and guide itself to a target. Real life, yeah you can do that, with the pre-programed or ground ops guidance.
