It has a place but ill still take the two stormers. Actually might play it for wargame nostalgia lol
why does that plane have 3 flare dispensers on hump but the one we have in game only has 2?
The one in the picture will likely be a F-16I, not an F-16D like we have in game

Can we not get the Eurofighters fitted with “limited” fire and forget Brimstones like 4, or can we not have Mavericks (Did they use them ?)
Eurofighters don’t use mavericks. Brimstones are their only anti-tank missile.
Genuinely curious, but roughly when do y’all think the update is going to be released?
12th or 13th
Been putting off finishing grinding Su27SM since forever. You fellas think Su30 will be worth finally getting that done?
any comments on why they give the Su30SM 6 KH38MTs and a thermal pod on top of its 4 R-77-1s and 2 R73s? Russia was in no need for an even better CAS plane yet here we are, and nations that desperately need SPAA are still left with out a way to even fight back against this new jet

Based off of the crazy thrust-vectoring capabilities, Personally I think that is is worth it.
Not really that crazy, not after nerfs from that I hear
Unfortunately there is no “limited” fire and forget mode for Brimstone.
Regarding Mavericks, they have never been used.

Can we just get the historically accurate Brimstone 2s on the typhoon?

Most definitely, the Su-30 might not be as nimble as an Su27sm with upgraded engines, but the new radar + R-77-1 look to be pretty competitive :)
Yes…I tested the Su30 a lot on the dev server, even after all 3 flight model changes it feels great to fight with in close with your AoA limiter shut off and the TVC…with HOBS missiles it’s one of the most dangerous jets to fight in this way…never let the Su30 close with you :/ it wont be good for you unless you have a MICA and even then you can be in trouble. Also its radar in 1 of if not the best radar in the game. Blinding fast refresh speed…basically instant contact refresh speed out to 100km and the 77-1 is a bit of a range bump up over the standard 77.
A down side though is the Su30s top speed…it’s not that great, a bit faster the the Hornet but in the same ball park…on the deck I think it was 1.19 Mach iirc I think the Hornet on the deck was 1.06 Mach. Still both are great when used to their strengths.

just limit mode 2 or 3 to at most 2 pylons which is 6 missiles, I dont see how that is unfair when they are slower, have less range and have less HE mass then the KH38MT and the Su30SM just got 6 of them

but SU-30SM’s FM is very bad, even worse than SU-33
Basically the f35 like awareness
I mean he already explained last time that there would be no brimstone if there was no laser mode soooo.
It’s been answered and explained many times why Brimstone is superior to Kh38MT when it’s in its fire and forget mode. Brimstone in that mode has several key improvement that take it far above anything currently in game.
