We have Spikes and the PARs 3
Those do not have the range of the LMUR missile we would require something like the Spike NLOS on the Apaches to even think of adding the LMUR
Well for one, the range is nearly double any other nation’s ATGMs, with the best FNF muntions being like, 8km.
Additionally, Gaijin has already denied missiles like the AGM-114L hellfire which would be dramatically inferior in range, and any Man-in-the-middle systems have not been modeled.
Finally, it simply wouldn’t be balanced. The absolute best non-russian SPAA is the TOR, which has a maximum range of 12km. The only SPAA which would be able to defeat it would be the Pantsir.
Where did you find the information for the range? Your first source says that the maximum range is 14500 meters while the source below that says in excess of 15km but this sourced from a random place on twitter without any backing
According to your first source the length of the missile is 1945mm, diameter is 200mm, the weight is 105kg, and the warhead weighs 25kg
Its hard to find concise and accurate information on something so new.
That’s why you should base it off the most concrete evidence which I would say the best source you have currently is the first one.
Will note your comment
How would GLONASS guidance be implemented? Is there anything in the game like this already?
As someone above said, if the documentation of how it works is too rare, maybe we should stick with adding more “conventional” stuff.
GLONASS/GPS would most likely be treated like IOG for a missile with a TV seeker
Yeah fair point but its hard to go from something like the Vikhrs to something crazy like the Hermes-A. The jump would be too large. Plus helis are not even meta right now and Germany, France, Italy and Israel all have FnF ATGMs.
Incorrect, LMUR can be used in a fire and forget mode as well.
I don’t know what I’m incorrect about? Please tell me
The missile doesn’t need to have NLOS capabilities, it can be implemented like current fire and forget missiles.
The Spike NLOS is a type of spike missile which is what I was referring to
exept the NLOS have like 2 or 3 times the range of the LMUR, plus you can carry far more of those, this missile is pretty much equivalent to the ER2 not the NLOS.
Also it has a HEAT Warhead unlike the LMUR
i mean depending on how much explosives does gaijing give it, it could be more reliable than the spikes warhead, a 25kg warhead, using the AS20 as a reference, would have a 9 kg of explosives, now if they give it A-IX-2 it could be around 14 kg of tnt, thats actually pretty lethal.
We will probably see them soon now that helis with Spike are going to 12.3
