You know it would be great if Gaijin would actually fix AGM-65s they would be so much better than the current gimp state there in. AGM-65 Maverick likely incorrect flight performance // Gaijin.net // Issues
yeah, but even then, You still probably would rarely fire them past about 18-20km. Certainly wont be firing them at (if conditions allow) 30kms like you can in theory do with KH-38s and AASMs now
They also lack IOG

Bro, I don’t want to offend you, but do you really think that LS-6 is at the same level of military equipment as AASM250？
This isn’t doing the Mav justice, as there’s only about 4 “common” top tier AGMs. Mavs are ok.
Lol, it would benefit us in the future to have better brimstones

Brimstone it has something to do with Russian main more than US main gaijin said give it mmw seeker it will operate risk free from any SPAA in the game but meanwhile KH-38 allow to do that to other nation
Wow, it’s almost like historically China didn’t have a military industry, and relied on other nations before being able to mass produce indigenous tanks and aircrafts.
How the hell does the LS6 500 even make it on the list with Kh-38 and AASM? Did someone take the cas monster comment seriously?
This is only a comparison of long Range AG weapon, not CAS weapon. The Grom2 is the most powerful, and it can fly 50km at an altitude of 4km. The LS6-500 can fly 60km at an altitude of 7km. The AASM250 is a little worse, I only tested 9km altitude can fly 55km.
Other than being in development, why is the AGM-187 denied for the F-18C? Seems like an arbitrary limitation when it would behave basically the same as Brimstone, so it’s not for balance purposes. The SU-30SM also gets Kh-38 without proof of them ever being mounted, AFAIK the double R-77 pylons are fake as well.
The double R77 aren’t fake it’s the same on the Kh-38 only proof of mounting on the Su-35S
Hot take, KH38mts has no US ground counter. At least the Russian tree has the pantsir that can actively shoot down slow mavericks. You can sit there in an adats, see the KH38s launched and literally do nothing. They work through smoke so that’s not even an option. You go up in an eagle or falcon and you have to deal with both the fastest SAM, and a or multiple SU-xx at the same time. It’s pretty lop sided at the moment to be honest. The best US cas can do is try and scout the pantsir within 5 seconds of spawning, throw out multiple mavs and then hope to have enough time to deal with the air threat. It’s really not fun having to hug the ground and have no use of JDAMS and Paveways while the Russian equivalent has ample time to launch all of their ordinance.
That’s what current war thunder top tier basically looks like. I don’t think adding better ordinance is going to help the f-18 but I do think a dedicated 13.0 SPAA will change gameplay immensely

Double pylons are a thing only on the SU-27SM3 and maybe SU-35, but I don’t think they were ever mounted on the SU-30SM which is what I meant
The only aircraft we have proof of carrying the double pylons are the Su-35S the Su-27SM3 just get the two Hardpoints I understand what you meant just want to clarify for others
Let’s just have PATRIOT systems constantly firing at CAS players the second they spawn in. Every BR too, just for the LOLs. I mean, imagine spawning in your 1.0 Gladiator, just to be smacked by a freedom missile.

SLAM is the KH38 equivalent, and no agm 65 and kh38 are in no way shape or form equivalents, agm 65 is slower and weaker.

swedish f18 gets nothing cause it used nothing. there is a reason american is designated as F/A18c and not f18c. be mad at gaijin for not adding the upgrade that allows it to have hmd and A/G
