Major Update "Leviathans" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

It’s the one in use with Germany and Italy, but not on EFT yet so it can’t come to that

could be wrong but it has been displayed with the EFT as a weapon it can carry

also at the end of the day was enough for the Su30SM to carry the 38MT lol

Hey @Smin1080p_WT can you explain why the Bug Report about the Phyton 5 having a smoke reduced motor Community Bug Reporting System is closed with the comment that there is smoke visible. But in fact this is only due to the atmospheric circumstances and even then it is very little. And in the other side the Iris T SLM has a Bug report accepted about the Same issue attached with Video that shows the same little smoke at the start. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBDmnKd8mBI&t=140s

They display lots of things that are still a ways away from being done. I mean, when was the earliest displayed SPEAR 3 (if there was a display)?

I found a 2019 one

not sure but we also know SPEAR 3 has been test fired on EFTs and again it was enough for the KH-38MT on the Su30SM so I dont see a problem

Yeah, tested what, like 5-6 years after the earliest display that I could easily find?

And even with the 38MT, the ML which was just a seeker swap does exist

from what I remember there isnt any proof of the Su30SM carrying any form of KH-38 series weapons literally the only images are from warthunder

most irl images are from the Su35S not the Su30 which seems like gaijin is messing a lot of the Su30SM and Su35S up like the dual R-77 pylons

  • Germany stil has Tornados to carry HARM

  • Because F-35 is literally a worse striker than a plane from 1973 and isn’t able to take over the SEAD/DEAD Role from the tornado we plan to do so with a Yet to be Developed Typhoon ECR Variant, as with 90% of the roles Tornado had (Precision striking with ePaveways, Strategic Conventional strikes with Taurus etc etc)

  • there is no current version of the EFT that can carry HARM

although i disagree with the flankers getting all this stuff, with the r77 its still the same general airframe.

no EFT can carry HARM yet like guy above said

at the end of the day gaijin have done fantasy stuff before it would not surprise me lol I also doubt we will see the AGM-88E in the first wave of ARMs anyway I imagine it will most likely be early HARMs with things like ALARM and ARMAT

theyd leave out a lot of nations then since many use things that are generally better than an old, basic HARM, and probably wouldnt come if they were limiting it to that

issue is with the AGM-88E is its quite the jump from the ARMs other nations would have, I dont see it happening with the first set of ARMs not with the fact it also uses MMV in the terminal phase which gaijin cant change that or their entire argument for the brimstone is thrown out the window

well the AARGM seeker is only for terminal guidance and is only good against light AA and radar. and the 88e is what other nations would have lol. they could always just add the 88F since it uses GPS/INS to defeat the radar turning off

which then germany and Italy have no ARM and your back to square one unless gaijin wanna give them a weapon it never mounted

so they just add the E and F?

why would they add the E if they would have to ahistorically change it to make it fit…? it would be like if they give brimstones an IR seeker to make them FnF something they said they wouldnt do, so they wont do that for the AGM-88E

the mmw wont be an issue on an ARM

it is if its used in the terminal phase, if they removed it then you have no guidance if they added it you have the same issue of the other MMV weapons of it seeing through terrain and smoke, again they wont add the E, they are more likely to just add standard HARM so they arent immediately jumping to an MMV ARM

there is still the passive radar seeker as well as the inertial guidance. and MMW cant see through terrain unless it can go through a hill

and like i said it isnt even an issue as the HARM warhead is only good vs. light AA vehicles and fragile radars. i dont even think any of the new SPAA have smoke grenades so it makes no difference
