Im aware of that.
Read what I said, On threads where I say things such as the F15E/I is one of the best platforms for CAS in game, in the top 3 behind su33/30 and rafale, people tell me the EF2000 and other stuff is better than the F15E/I:
Im aware it has FnF munitions and is a banger of a platform.
Also germany has planes with FnF as well
Both the F-15E/I and EFT will both not be very good with the new SPAA. It will mostly still be the Rafale/Su-30 show.
Not that I think that is bad. I don’t think cas being mid as hell is a bad thing.
I disagree actually. I think GBU-39 Spam will be the meta strat for fighting these mutli vehicle SPAA. Im basically thinking i Will need to replace the Typhoon FGR4 with Gripen C just for the GBU-39s if they dont massively buff the Typhoon CAS
Soon
Hmmm that is an angle I haven’t looked from yet, good one.
Although I think that will mostly be strong against the SLM. I think the Type 81 and Slamraam are too mobile for GBU-39s to be super effective.
Good players will hide that Radar and spawn one launcher, then just keep replacing the launcher that you destroy.
GPS bombs to saturate could be a play.
I think thats gunna come down to how fast people are at swapping between vehicles and how well people are able to hide them.
If nothing else, I see a good few months whilst people master it where they will be perticularly vulnerable
I mean these new SPAA have god tier awareness when it comes to radar, so they shoudl absolutely be aware when GBU-39s are being launched at them. And seeing that all of these new SAMs are self guided (FnF) it means you can launch and instantly move to avoid GBU-39s.
It will however be very player dependent.
Yeah it will be…
But certainly time for some CAS buffs soon I hope. Going back to only 2 nations being allowed access to CAS would suck
I would much rather just nerf the remaining 2 so that everyone is mid at cas.
But I guess the best we can get is more Kh38MT buffs (the horizontal and vertical limits, I don’t care about it getting gnss).
Wiki also says Tejas is 3rd gen and mentions “F-16C block 60”
and because one of those nations use an EFT it will probably never get a buff because they would have to buff the german EFT as well :/
I found other stuff to back it up but there are also lots of conflicting sources
Perhaps. I just want to see CAS buffed for ASB. I dont really care about GRB anymore, especially with how they treat certain nations and their ground vehicles.
I want to do this:
to convoys in ASB, but alas, Im not allowed because of GRB.
Yeah, I have seen a few people make that argument already in my Brimstone 2 thread and unfortunately. most Typhoons that are played (especially in CAS) are German
Yeah, was mostly to remind anyone reading this that wikipedia is not a source at all
the amount of germany players I have seen cry when you suggest the idea of adding only MMV brimstone 1s to italy and the UK is so funny to me, its easy they just add the SPEAR-3 germany hasnt integrated them on their EFT and only the UK and Italy have purchased them
I genuinely think @morvran is right, these new SPAA outrange all the standoff equipment, its gonna be easier now to just drop GPS guided munitions and bail.
Or my other thought is come in fast as you can, sling multiple GBUs’ and then get out rapid
Ah yes the weapon system where you can get ammo racked with mg fire, missiles that have an odd attraction to tracks and barrels and a door knocker cannon, that’s some serious firepower…
Time for CBUs and just carpet bomb half the map from low alt :D
