speak about french toptier with mirage 2000d rmv that has 7 kh38 equivalents
Their max speed is 2 times worse than kh38 speed which makes them easier to intercept tho.
Also soviets have mi28nm which not only has force field but also 8 lmurs with actually deadly warhead.
Fair point with the trees. People getting CAS’d in tanks is realistic tho. Of course it’s also realistic for SPAA to be there, but as far as I’m aware, there’s not 4x as much as SPAA as there is ground units. And the large chunk of Ground RB players not touching the air tree is not a problem gaijin should have to fix. If they don’t grind any air trees they should grind the SPAA line, and if they do that then it’s their own fault for not having anything to counter aircraft.
with the aa spam the ah64e’s are lowk better since it has 16 missiles, 8 lmur’s can be intercepted, 16 missiles on the other hand cannot be. and it’s not like 7 of the french missiles are gonna be intercepted on that platform unless you launch them from like 10km away
Aye Aye Sir.

Jagms are rather unreliable so even tho some missiles pass through they might just land a “hit”. And if by aa spam you mean free aa then those arent great at intercepting stuff. Unless its soviet pantsir. Also getting closer than 10 km on plane might get you punished by spaa.
Gaijin needed to create a CAS mode and a mode for playing SPAA to stop this CAS vs SPAA conflict, and the Heli also need a fair mode, an EC or PVE mode would be good, I also don’t see why it’s not possible to create a combined mode.
aa spam is prevalent even in top tier, somebody spawns in a cas plane, gets like 2 kills and suddenly there’s 5 aa’s on the enemy team. I’ve seen lmur’s only score hits as well, it’s just that IR guidance is modelled horribly wrong in game. and don’t forget the cs/sa5 when intercepting missiles
Doesnt happen often unlike in case of jagms.
Thanks to that and heat jets doing some weird things, heat warheads in general are well known for being garbage. Its not just ir btw, you can compare stuff like agm65b and kh29t. 2 tv missiles. But one tends to “hit”, crit fuel tanks, breach, tracks etc while another pretty much disintegrates tanks thanks to huge he warhead.
TV seekers may be awful in game on accident but it is historically accurate since they weren’t known for having good cameras as they were used from the 70’s i believe
I doubt devs modelled that. I think both guidance types are implemented equally bad.
