appears like they require laser painting till impact

so it wont be fire and forget? damn welp they are gonna be kinda meh then, if you are forced to guide them in like hellfires and if their range is the same as pantsirs or less those AGMs are just gonna be dead weight

Laser 65 are not F&F, so one brim at a time.

There won’t be a new German Tornado?

Not allowed?
Not worthy?

Well… that renders them nearly worhtless. at least in the capacity I was hoping to use them for, which was wiping out convoys in Sim.

Smin, maybe you can answer this but with the UK getting again CAS where is the Tornado IDS ASSTA3.1???

When will ground forces get counters to CAS units which can stay outside SAM range?
Something like AMRAAM based SAM.

“We wont model these correctly because it can operate outside of AA range”

So can the SM3?

So glad that weapons like the kh38ml, Vickrs, 114L and brimstone’s are implented in a way it doesn’t break the game!

We are aware. Its just that their reasoning falls apart when you look at the Su-25SM3

It explains why mmV and the “ripple fire and go find their own target” is considered OP. But not FnF like KH-38, AGM-65, Martel, PGM, etc etc are like currently in game

Again, there is more too it than just that :)

Please read the answer in full. It explains in detail why Brimstone is different and would not be balanced.
