why are you guys yapping so much. x 38 weak, need x 59. (and I forgot we must have kinzhal for 2 spawn points)

They can still make a faster missile. Iirc hammer is more of a kit for bombs, like a much more expensive JDAM, than a standalone AGM like the Kh-38 (idk for sure, @dedale_stargate can correct me if I’m wrong)
insert caughing baby vs hydrogen bomb meme here

you may be somewhat right, but you have to remember that minor nations players (like france) are often of higher skill
Yeah. Of course, but given how easy KH-38s are to use, they can be spammed off by anyone and get kills. Especially as they dont need to worry about Pantsirs like the Rafale might
moreso it’s about getting enough SP for those
SLAM, AGM-88E/-ER, SiAW
Maverick is also underperforming in impact velocity. They currently have it as basically reaching 0 speed at max range when it should be impacting at ~250mph IIRC

Soviets have some decent MBTs and IFVs, they arent exactly struggling in that regard.
Isn’t SLAM subsonic too? The rest are all good options though
true but doesnt mean that every update us minor nations need to be left in the trenches

i’m not too familiar with JDAM, but i think that’s indeed the most comparable
You are indeed correct : AASM is just a bomb with a guidance kit strapped in the front and a propulsion kit strapped to the rear

SDB II would be more comparable
Only reason why I think the Typhoon is doing as well as it is. Italy, Britain and especially Germany are so use to making the Tornado work in an environment of F-15s, F-16s ,Gripens and Su-34s. That now they have a decent airframe, even limited to much the same laser guided wepaons, they can just slap the other teams silly

i’d be lying if i said i needed skill to use those tbh X)
JDAM is just control surface kit strapped onto mk82/83/84 bomb with GPS guidance section
Appears to be an early one at NMUSAF

post talked about the likelihood of KH-38s; I addressed that. no need to think that I was talking about the “skill” of using those missiles

aren’t they developping laser and propelled variants as well now ?

Yeah, Laser JDAM (or LJDAM). This is already operational in multiple countries.
there is also JDAM-ER which is wing kit JDAM, and like you said PJDAM (powered JDAM) which is jet propelled. Don’t know anything about testing or if it’s operational though

Yes, but it’s powered for much more of its flight time so in long range shots it will have a better TTI than a maverick or AGM-130
