So they can’t be fired as F&F like a spike via a pod for example ?
Complicated situation if true
So, like the su25sm3. Or even the su24 to some extent.
oh I get that but making them forced to only have the laser lock is dumb, with how long hellfires take to reach the target, assuming you give them their 20km range you could be holding that lock upwards of a minute, and if your only able to fire one at a time, well it is a weapon completely useless for taking out pantsirs

We are getting an air launched hellfire on a flying brick. Have you played the Su-25T with vhikers? Yeah thats what we have, at a higher BR.
Thats not good.
Well you have to guide it till it hits and they are transonic missiles
then remove the INS from the Kh38… it doesnt make sense why one nation gets unbeatable stuff but another cant bc of… reasons

Ah, okay, okay!
So they are still fire-and-forget as it works already ingame, just no fancy new mechanic?
That works for me, then!
I initially panicked because I thought they would have no fire-and-forget capabilities at all, hahah. It’s all good, then!
If the additional feature makes them even more capable, I agree with the devs’ decision not to implement it. Basic fire-and-forget is more than good enough, we don’t want anything even more capable than this (if I understood correctly, you would just launch them at random and they would find their own targets? That’s way too crazy!)
Thank you for the clarification!
Nope. Again the Dev blog explains in detail how these weapons in F&F mode are not like others.

I dont play russia ground, the tornado is a very good cas platform, just because we cant spam 9 brimstones like they are phoenixes in air rb doesn’t mean they are bad

No they will be using laser guidance, a historical mode of the weapon.

So all we need to do is complain enough and they should add it as that is how it works if you are a major nation
Like at the end of the day Smin since i know youre just the messenger.
The KH38 invalidates almost every counter argument against the brimstone, there was so many other options for solutions they couldve taken to preserve the identity of these missiles but they decided to just make them standard hellfires.

you have a all aspect pod, that’s the biggest difference, you can fly away after firing, no need to fly towards spaa.
Oh! So… no fire-and-forget at all?
Well, that’s disappointing… it means AGM-114L, if it ever comes, will be the same as AGM-114K and bring nothing to the table…

just make them the same
nobody would complain in this case
but restricting it this hard is just completly killing thze european cas capability
we will be restricted to 1 missle at a time that activates LWS
will everyone else will shoot mavericks and KHs in the future without restrictions and multiple at once
fire and dont forget
Is the trailer still droping today or no ?

No it’s not. For the reasons explained in detail within the blog :)
As far as I understood, the F&F mode of brimstones just acquired targets on their own, and that’s what’s been removed.
Is any form of F&F still available for them, then?
Or are they laser guided?
