It’s just a bug atm. PGM is intended to be used at 12km for moving targets, but it keeps reverting to point mode. It’s been reported, they just need to fix it. Community Bug Reporting System
You can see in this video that the PGM travels 20km from a subsonic launch at 3km altitude. What inherent need to be dropped from altitude?
But is that not still well within the range of Pantsir? and quite frankly. I can barely get the TIALD pod to lock onto something past 10-15km, not to mention get the PGMs to actaully fire.
I guess BR 12.0 (Air AB & Air RB) and 11.7 (Air SB), and 13.3 or 13.7 BR (Ground RB)
But I don’t know F-4G located to heavy fighter line before F-15A Eagle or strike aircraft line before AV-8B+ (USMC) in rank 8
i don’t think it’d be that high, maybe 11.7, mind you the PD phantoms need to be 11.7 anyway
