If Su-34 can get 6x KH-38, then can JH-7A get 4x KH-29s instead of 2x like it can irl?
so i’ve heard. is that really it?

As its not even on my dev server client, its entirely possible. But id guess 10.7 if it is placeholder
As far as I can tell from Aoi’s screenshot, AV8S is probably using AV8C’s chasis (ok, actually av8a) currently, which might explain why they have the same br
and eventually it would go to higher br when fully finished
The AV-8S is a Spanish export version of the AV-8A that was sold to the Thai navy. So that makes sense

BTW, all leo 2 gains a nerf in test server, that they now would be forced to raise it’s barrel when turning backwards at ehh, 142.5 degree (used to be 160)
*proximately at this angel in test server
*what it is in current server

Yeah, Id just do the same but with the FA2
Why cant we use the 117 in ground rb on the dev, thats the whole point of it
@Smin1080p_WT hey Smin could you please relay if the av8s is really coming this update? Also I must ask the dreaded question how has your day/night been?

so how are the brimstones? I’ve heard they have a terrible arc of fire, they track like hellfires so not very well and i seen a clip of it taking 3+ brimstones to kill a single T72
I chucked some clips in the tornado thread to look at, but to sum up.
- They are really slow, better part of a minute to travel from 14-15km away
- They self destruct after 60 seconds but take around 80 seconds to travel from 20km which really hurts there range
- Like Hellfires, the IOG doesnt work… At all.
- They might be somewhat usable as psuedo A2A weapon.
Not touched GRB and things are always different in that, but in test flight and ARB its 1 hit kill though, quite good for low level hit and runs at close range rather than as a long range stand off weapon.
Tornado GR4 overall is okay. the FLIR is going to be quite nice in Sim though.

Its a Work-in-Progress dev server
so its kinda as I feared, their guidance time massively limited their range…
so lets see
no FnF
the LOG is none existent
sub 20km range when listed as 20km+ range
Terrible flight time
Terrible arcs of fire
yeah these things are just worse then brining 4 PGM 500s and using the FLIR to get pretty easy 4 kills

My hope… They are 100% placeholder and just C&P Hellfires at the moment, but if things dont change, yeah, i’ll basically never run them outside of the rare time I need an AGM to deal with a SPAA or something in Sim. If i didnt need a tpod as well. Id consider just taking 3 in every sortie as a psuedo short range A2A missile, but I cant take tanks + 1x base kill + Brimstone, just not possible unfortunately

yeah so gaijin achieved their goal of killing any hype at all for the brimstone shame honestly

if the GR4s BR doesnt change. I may very well rarely play the GR4 in Sim, regardless of brimstone performance.
At 12.7, its gunna suck to try and evade Mig-29s and F-16s all the time and in the uptier bracket of 13.0. It will be evading F-4F ICEs. (I cant even really bring the FA2 either now because that will be DOA trying to fight the ICEs)
what is this, iog do have drift problem so it cant work like fnf.
My friends tested it, it seems have high drag, so loses speed quickly until subsonic. 14km with 315m/s in average, though much faster than AGM65
as it currently stands the GR4’s BR in both ARB and GRB make no sense.
The Paveway IVs are definitely interesting but they can’t be used like JDAMs because every time you hit the “drop bomb” button… it re-activates your laser pointer even if you manually shut it off… meaning that any bomb you dropped before the next one will deviate to said laser point beforehand and be rendered a miss.
The Brimstones are… tragic, I tested them for a few hours and they really is just nothing good to say about them beyond “they do good damage if/when they hit” but the issue is the platform they’re on at the BR its at cannot get close enough to use them safely. (unlike some other top tier CAS I could mention but I dont wanna beat the dead horse)
The Air to Air performance is a joke. It’s got a worse flight model than the ADV, less CMs, worse CM placement, but because it gets an HMD and 2 9Ms (btw the A-10C gets 4 9Ms and an HMD at 11.7) this vehicle is 12.3 while the ADV which is just… better in every single possible regard is 12.0?
I’ve never before this update have had the stance that a vehicle just shouldn’t be added at all, and this vehicle has pushed me to that stance.
