Makes me wonder what ordnance is going to be missing for the A-10C considering its on the leak list.
As a baseline I’d expect at least the HMD, LITENING TGP & LGBs to turn up.
I’d like to hope that JDAMs / SDB-I & -II, AGM-65E & -65G are to be added especially if they are planning to add it at, or above 11.0.
I’m sure it won’t come with Cluster bombs / dispensers, or the Sniper ATP, and AGR-20 but it’d be nice to have something that would actually be functional.
They won’t give it anything that can outrange the Pantsir. Bet on it.
It can’t be the same BR because the Tech Tree one gets thermals, better ordinance, and such.
Fun fact: I wrote this topic because of Air RB [seal-clubbing 1950s] meta with AIM-9L spamming
but EVERYBODY just talks about Ground RB
:/
Peak forum intelligence.
But yeah, I think they are very annoying in ARB, and I wouldn’t mind them going up.
Which doesn’t happen quite as much after the BR raising. I’ll also remind you the Frogfoot sees more play these days compared to the Warthog.
You still want the BR raised even more despite how much BR compression we still have. The compression issue needs to still be sorted, otherwise you raise it and many other aircraft higher and they are completely dead in the water.
But you don’t seem to understand that, and frankly it’s about time you do.
watch the original topic’s written date pal ;)
on that date,
After Decompression
For now, the A-10 and Su-25 problems seem a lot less painful and also almost solved.
Naah…
Eh… with my personal hatred which I kept from since I was a newbie, I hope A-10A (Both Early and Late) receives the finishing blow and becomes unusable in air RB just like Traditional Bombers do. :P
But, A-10A Enjoyers are also our players and friends. and they will be sad if that becomes seriously unusable like Su-25SM3 in ARB. isn’t it?
In conclusion, the current situation with A-10 and Su-25 seems fine to me. XD
anyway, I disappointed about everyone keeps yelling and fighting about ‘A-10A and Su-25 in GRB’ in ‘A-10A in ARB’ topic :|
I think even after decompression they can still be moved up. In the current meta/ARB structure they still perform stupidly well. The sheer fact you can’t dogfight it traditionally but need to abuse it’s slow speed to BnZ it while it can make itself entirely immune to IR missiles makes the A-10 (even the one currently at 10.7) still an effective plane. Despite the incredibly low top speed it has a great kit for the current furball missile spam meta with the tiny maps.
The Su-25 is a little worse off due to the shorter range on the missiles and limited cannon ammo which prevents you from mindlessly spraying at anything that flies near you but it does go faster and is more effective in BFM fights.
All of them can still see plenty of flareless jets at their BRs which are nigh guaranteed kills. The F-4C is 10.7 for crying out loud.
Where is the strike aircraft spawn??
“Soon™” - Stona_WT. Probably.
