Dual use brimstones are only brimstone one iirc, if you have docs proving its both the full send my guy.
You would also have to rip TGPs off every multirole plane for fairness aswell.

Brimstone 2, 3 and even Spear-3s maintained the dual-mode seeker.
Then go prove it, im not a suggestion mod.
Its only fair if were ripping out functionality and armaments to create a level playing field like in Константинович7’s example. Im not saying or advocating actually doing it. Its also why I dont get behind the whole making stuff up for balance like the brimstone crowd consistently want done.
Yeah, they should just add the real MMW seeker and be done with it
And also add chaff smoke grenades
In each instance, the missile’s guidance system acquired its intended target from laser returns, before using its millimetre-wave radar “to ensure no escape and a direct hit”.
so was tested using mode 2

But you can also just use your common sense. Brimstone 1 was given the laser seeker to provide the weapon a “man-in-the-loop” capability. It would be stupid to remove that capability from its replacement/upgraded version.

- Take a KH38
- make it twice to thrice slower
- make it loft more aggressively
You have a AASM
Quite solid “second best” imo, and completely busted against anything other than pantsir, although even pantsir struggles a lot against those to be fair

Right. The AASM is the only AGM that comes even close, while being dramatically easier to counter due to being much slowerand having a giant snail trail behind it for much longer.
Does USA even have similar supersonic missiles? Or is the closest we can get to being hard to shoot down stealthy missiles like JASSM and glide bombs like JSOW?
Using AGM65D compared to using KH38 feels like a Roman soldier against an F16.

sounds totally fair and unbiased that a missile built by one of the best defence corporations in the world is significantly worse than the one designed by russia only a few years later.
Im all for critiquing the french but they have good tech, Russia was buying military equipment from them before their SMO in ukraine after all
and give us fab9k!

Basically
The main “”““counter””“” to AASM is the fact that your target might be dead by the time the missile arrives
That problem is almost non existent on KH. Other than that, it’s a bit easier to intercept indeed, but not everyone can (RIP US, UK, Israel, Italy and Japan)

Also, I rarely see anyone playing France, and when I do, its a few to a team. Meanwhile entire teams can be made up of Soviets. So the likelyhood of at least 1 KH-38 slinger, let alone mutliple is much higher than encountering a Rafale or M2KD RMV
