Ah, that would make sense.

We also need the overwatch variant

i think JLTV would be better vehicle, but would be cool to see this too

I wonder how gaijin would balance the Ares Overwatch when its missiles should be fire and forget

and thats easy. they’ll be SAL only

True which massively limits how effective they would be

If we got it as well, lets just hope they dont pull a typhoon and limit them to Brimstone 1s

I doubt there would be any reason to limit it to brimstone 1s when most of the maps in game the longest you are hitting some one is 2.5km

for safety of helicopters lol

could be used as makeshift SPAA with brimstone 2 or 3

I think helicopters are some of the last things that need protection tbh

i guess?

i dont really care if it gets brimstone 2 or 3 SAL since by then AH-1Z and AH-64E will have JAGM-MR and latest gen SPIKE-NLOS probably

hopefully we have researchable drones by then too

I doubt we will get JAGM-ERs or Brimstones on helicopters as with planes they dont like the idea of radar guided A2G weapons

We have high BR ATGM launchers, including a few with FnF ATGMs. So I dont think the Ajax Overwatch is actually all that unreasonable as it replaces the Gun + Spike with only Brimstones. It would basically be a modern Striker.

It could come fairly soon without issue imo. Heck, we even have a radar guided ATGM ground vehicle already in game

JAGM-MR is three mode seekr. IIR, Laser, MMW. probably has some GPS capability but not sure. for game, they could just not give it the MMW mode

yeah, would be nice to see more specialized ATGM vehicle like Ajax Overwatch and LAV-AT, M1253A1, M1256A1

Should be a subtree
