So this is my first time uploading on here, but after playing the Eurofighter for Britain and after the constant artificial nerfs unlike the rafale which has been awarded artificial buffs I’ve been looking into what kit the Euro carries.
So as we know in real world circumstances the Brimstones are significantly better as the can be fired at multiple targets as they’re fired in salvos as shown here. For obvious reasons this can be implemented in game. as the KH38’s and AASM’s show us i understand the nerf that only one missile can be fired at once due to the Euro’s ability to carry 18 brimstone ATGMS.
A work around to this could be to modify the AN/AAQ-28 Litening III targeting pod to how it functions in the real world where it can target multiple targets as reported here it also covers how it works.
I’m happy to hear what other people think to this workaround
the lack of multi-target engagement is the thing that drives me most nuts as Im always forced to attack one thing at a time and that gives the other targets warning.
Being able to guide 2+ PW4s onto targets would be awesome
No, that Tornado is firing Brimstones guided via their main seeker head which is a radar seeker. That seeker head has been determined as being too OP and thus not allowed in game currently.
That clip is from 2005, long before they had the laser seeker added to the missile.
But you should bring up the multi-laser beam idea in the Typhoon thread
Might get better traction. Though probably a game limitation more than anything else preventing it from coming
Even just engaging 2 targets at once with either PW4s or Brimstones would be a major boost for the Typhoon
Yeah, but features like this probably would only happen if there is a meaningful community interest for it to be added. So bringing it up in the main typhoon thread(s) doesn’t hurt. Especially as a feature like this would probably only come from gunjob beating the Devs with his poking stick.
I think it was suggested before and the bug report for denied iirc
