Is the CDK/Asset Viewer now going to need updating when Hornet Sting comes out?
Opening with Dev 2.44.0.25 seems to results in Exception Occured crash, but worked yesterday with 2.44.0.23
Still small caliber?
Yeah, thought about that too
Does the premium F18 have HMS?
It’s a more important change for the earlier two I think, single pop flares and chaff are useful at 12.7, not so much at 14.0
It doesn’t, though no modern US jet should really, JHMCS was developed to better utilize the AIM-9X, the US didn’t really use HMS before that much.

It’s too bad that they refuse to artificially nerf USSR things
Infinite health bombing target also made teamkilling less prevelant and reduces toxicity in extension, there would also be more loadouts that takes more fuel and A2A weapons since they do not need to rush for a target, and in turn increases the activity in air engagements

tbf this isnt even artificial. Its all real weapons they can use immediately with minimal remodelling needed lol
Yeah, it would certainly be worth a trial
I mean, they could just apply the same treatment they gave to the Brimstones to the Kh-38 and get rid of the MT variant. Would be a starting point at least, but hey, we are just plebians that don’t know anything about game balancing.

Hmmm, missed the moment then Kh-38 can be locked with radar and fired while a single jet can carry almost a dozen of them
Yeah but then people would make way too much from base bombing, and that hurts… well y’know.
Or even worse they’d nerf it to the ground, from what i remember from farming in the tornado 2 bases was 1.5 kills?
You really gonna defend the Kh-38, huh?

Nah. My issue is “Same treatment”. Brimstone is not in the same league with Kh-38
Correct. brimstones are massively weaker at the moment

Deleting and reinstalling got it working again for me on the latest devserver version.

It would be the same treatment. They said the Brimstones full capability would be too much, so they limited it to SALH.
So, admitting that the Kh-38MT is too strong for the current game balance and only keeping the Kh-38ML would be the same treatment.

And if they had their intended/full functional? Then balance shifts the opposite and we are back at the same place, but this time “Reds” complain about “Blues” and their overpowered weaponry. Thats some Catch 22 moment
Me still holding out for the US to invest in the R upgrade.
