They are optical tracked so if the target obstructed. it will lose lock.
Because hellfires are completely useless when it comes to being competitive with Vikhrs, the addition of AGM144L is needed to deal with SPAAs otherwise Helicopters are a useless thing that SPAAs like ITO or Pantsir can easily kill.
I wouldn’t even take soviet helis either but sure thats on me for not explaining myself. I dont think russia has good CAS, the su25sm3 can be good, the f16 imo is the best in game. Helicopters are worthless. F16C is just better and faster and way more oppressive.
Not if you can guide your missile straight to enemy helicopters and not dying with a simple shot from a bt-7 then its worthless but other than that Russian helicopter are totally worth it, that’s why hundreds of thousands bought and still buy the Ka50 unlike other nations.
F16C is a good jet i agree, but that still doesn’t change the fact that AGM144L cannot come in the game, as i said if its too OP then nerf it.
I own soviet helis the straight guide missiles can be nice but at 11.7 im taking a jet. Its why i have two jets on ym us lineup. Helicopters don’t work on any nation
IDK if the Soviets have one, but they do deserve IR guided as much as USA.
AH-64E can use them, so that’s the candidate for America.
Dunno about USSR though.
I try to fight [vehicle] in [vehicle it counters] pls help me
Stop using helis to fight pantsirs you monkey
Honestly if you can pop up attack it effectively it can work better than some jets.
You can easily shoot them down.
Pars 3 LR and more so Spike ER fly really low.
At least with FlaRakRad and OTOMATIC I can reliably destroy these kind of missiles. Especially because they also get shown on radar and can be locked on.
That could get a bit complicated.
Germany, Italy, France and Israel already have them.
The USA, UK, Japan and Israel can get the AGM-114L and China the HJ-10.
But Sweden and Russia will be complicated.
For Sweden, I could only imagine that they are given the Dutch AH-64D so that they can also use the Hellfire Longbow.
For Russia it’s complicated because the only FaF missile their helicopters use is the LMUR, which has a range of 14.5 km and can therefore outrange most air defence systems.
To be honest, I can only imagine the introduction of an Indian helicopter like the HAL Parchand. It has the domestic Helina missile which has somewhat the same range as Spike ER.
114Ls will be huge game breaking. IR smoke can’t stop those.
Gaijin even refused to give Apache hellfire R
I don’t expect L they wouldn’t dare touching it
not every nation has them. hellfire longbow should be added though
ofcourse if we added the L the vikhr wouldnt be the best missile anymore and that cant be allowed
the LMUR is barely a thing yet. we straight up know nothing about it and its likely to remain like this as russia is not using them much, there have been a few times it has been used but as far as i know mostly against buildings(i know like 3 or 4 times it has been used against vehicles). its unlikely to ever be deployed at anything resembling scale considering the price. and it really wouldnt be an upgrade to current vikhrs. considering its a big missile which drastically reduces the number of vikhrs you can carry
If the 114L gets a similar lock system as Fox3s. You would be able to get 16kills as fast as you can press 2 buttons. it is a little much.
it wouldnt be that strong. gaijin would fuck it up like they did spike. did people forget about spikes? the best Irl atgm is not even good
Spike uses optical targeting. Which with there current coding is causing the issues. Radar missiles who knows.
AGM-114Ls are off the table.
USA has SPIKE with AH-64E.
Japan has sub-tree options.
@ARK_BOI
AGM-114R has no anti-tank improvement over AGM-114K.
@Zannafrancy12
Vikhr was never the best missile in the game. It started off as-OP as AGM-114, and then it got nerfed and superior missiles have been added that Vikhrs haven’t even been top-5 in 2 years.
Ironic that you want USA to have the only OP missile in the game while claiming a 10km [8km actual range] TOW-2 is the best missile.
Afaik the USA have only Spike NLOS for thier AH-64E and 50 km range with an atgm is way more overpowered then the AGM-114L
