Brimstone 2, 3 and spear 3s all retain the same dual-mode functionality
Sigh XD lol people just have no clue yet about how crazy this jet is going to be…with the AoA limiter shut off and because of the TVC in combination with HOBS missiles after all 3 flight model changes you can still do this see below!

It sounded like you were asking to have the brimstone 2 without the current limitation.
Don’t get me wrong, this is nuts. Just questionable how often it’s actually going to be able to this sort of thing, without getting 2nd/3rd/4th partied at stall speed in the RB furball.
The skilled sim people who can actually control this are going to be nightmare fuel though lol.
If we must have SAL, then the least we can have is an AGM with better performance…
As the typhoon never used Brimstone 1s… It’s doubley important
Do you understand the balance concern we have about giving 6x Kh38MT on a highly capable fighter platform with targeting pod?
No other nation has a counterpart to this capability, or the means to counter it. S1 Pantsir is on the team that gets these missiles.
I’m not arguing for Brimstone FnF but all I’m saying is that this loadout is not suitable for the Su30SM

Atleast when it was Su25, and to a lesser extent Su33 with Kh38’s, people could make the dubious ‘just spawn CAP to counter it’ argument.
But now… This thing is going to be every bit as scary, if not more so than whatever fighter comes up to stop it. The fact they will be able to spawn this and Su33, without either’s loss impacting the others spawn cost is terrifying in it’s own right.

When does update go live
Sensor fusion and Computer (AI) assisted C4ISR isn’t properly added yet, the better RWR and MAWs would be nice, but nothing we haven’t seen before, it can be upgraded further as more advanced things are added to the game but right now the situational awareness would be game limited to be similar to the EF2k and rafale
probably next tuesday

Yes that is the thing…if you try to do this with multiple enemies around you’re DEAD (some times)…in areas and times of the match where you have room to do this you will dunk on anyone who get just 900-1000 meters of separation…77-1 50G point blank range…the 18C I killed in the clip was not shot with R73s!
The other crazy thing though is…if they get to close the R73 becomes all but IMOSIBLE to counter! Because of your ability to point the nose and lead them! Basically if your in a EFT/15E/16C ext ext you want to try to kill the Su30 at range…you also can just out run him cuz your faster by a good bit!
(some times) example, had a fight on the Dev Server were I merged with two F18Cs and much the same as that clip they got just a bit to far from me 77’ed one locked the second 18C…and as I fired my second 77 and it was a foot off the rail the 3rd 18C that I did not see hit me from behind with a 120 that also destroyed my 77…if the 3rd guy was not there it was a easy two kills or if I had a team left that could have covered me.
I’m very Hyped for the Su30 :)

It did.
Next Tuesday to make the T.10 worth pursuing
I’m probably not going to use it if they don’t add one for 9.7. I just don’t think it would be a good replacement for the Stormers and most people that just use “meta” stuff will pick the Strela and the OSA over the Tracked Rapier.
Yeah, like with the AASMs, have different guidance modes as different arms, and limit us to 6 of the ARH version
spear 3 has an ir mode sooooo

Why does the Kh-38MT get to stay though? It is superior to every other AGM.
Limiting USSR planes to Kh-38MLs and adding another weaker AGM as a trade seems completely fair.
