Listing a stat sheet isn’t a productive or useful way to suggest a buff, besides 16 long range FnF missiles are good enough as is, perhaps we should wait until more comparable alternatives (eg. SPIKE ER2s, Brimstones, Martlets, etc) are added, in order to encourage some semblance of balance in top tier.
TLDR the AH-64E is doing more than fine rn, the AGM-179 can get buffed when other nations get their long range FnFs
Gaijin have stated that this isn’t currently planned or possibility, besides the seeker is fine currently
