There is no “challenge” in avoiding an R-60M or AIM-9L from some airfield camping A-10 or Su-25. You just die, no chance to fight. CMs are a must.
But it is apparently a challenge to read 3 comments down.
Oh sorry your highness, my apologies
Maybe they should just allow a CCRP mode, you set your target, the battlefield, and can arc your nuke, without getting too close, instead of having to be directly over it.
That’s probably a good addition, but you still need to get some speed to give the nuclear bomb some momentum. This won’t fix the issue of it dying to any all-aspect missiles while taking off.
Yes, let me munition intercept the nuke.
Airburst nukes is legit how nukes detonate, you know that right.
Yes, and thats why munitions intercapt would be the way to go
Idk, blast radius/radiation radius is still pretty large on a nuke. Especially considering the one is games load is massive
An uneven detonation of a nuke would only leave you with the chemical explosive mass to worry about + potential criticallity that you may get. Tho the latter ranges from nothing to partial yield.
So intercepting it with say a Pantsir/ITO or Aim-7/R-27 will likely result in a small detonation, given Warthunder focuses on optimal outcomes.
The only weapons id see having a good chance actually detonating with its nuclear yield would be gun style bombs, but afaik we dont have any of those in the game.
