Therefore, the US should have been engaged not in the military-industrial complex, but in developing magical skills.
Notice how the roundel is not the US
You say that like the AAQ-24(V) doesn’t exist.
Common Infrared Countermeasure Systems Approved by US Army for Early Fielding
Feb. 9, 2023 – Northrop Grumman Corporation’s (NYSE: NOC) Common Infrared Countermeasures (CIRCM) system has achieved Initial Operational Capability (IOC). With IOC, the U.S. Army demonstrated the ability to field, employ and maintain CIRCM in significant quantities on its rotary wing platforms. This milestone advances the accelerated fielding of CIRCM systems on more than 1,500 Army aircraft. CIRCM has met the IOC requirements for UH-60M, HH-60M, CH-47F and AH-64Es.
It’s also worth noting that it only uses ~200 watts of power so it’s not achieving missile defeat by destructive methods either.
Unfortunately it’s on a different platform/helicopter than the current one in game
Ah-64E - plane?
No
They had that on C17s
Garbage argument for a helicopter made in 1998, not even with upgraded packages either just stock 1998 Apache. The AH64 E should’ve been here with the pantsir, along with long bow hellfires.
I’m just using Gaijin logic though. Same as how LMUR will never come to the current Ka-52, but to the Ka-52M which they will add in the future probably
also…
Notice the american roundel???
Notice the same EXACT DCIM module???
Gaijin cant use “it never had it” logic with photo proof of it being used
Ain’t that an AH-64E?
could be but i just looked up the dcim system.
Even then the 64E should come this update, it would fit against the sams.
Well, Russia have LMUR and China have AKD-21 that are F&F but because adding that would mean US also have to either get 64E with Spike/Hellfire-L or add Hellfire-L For 64D and AH-1Z. Because the whole reason why it isn’t added is because it uses MMW that Gaijin so much hate.
And fair for Russia? definitely not as it their Vikhr ATGM that killed Helicopter PVP mode and why we hate the russian heli’s so much, better than hellfire in everything.
As for DIRCM/LDIRCM, I know that 64D AMASE have modified pods that include 2x DIRCM in it and 64E also have it. For LDIRCM however, i cannot be certain but as what people have posted so far above me, it seems to be true that US indeed does have LDIRCM since 2000s.
They use circms as well on the 64 E which could be more advanced
The holy Russian engineering has finally surpassed NATO, God Bless Stalin!
I bet they wont add this to the AH64D even though its suppose to have the same feature when you take the AMSE pods. they are DIRCM pods.
Just like how they wont give tthe US AGR-20C (heat) and D (proxi) or E (IR guided Roxi)s
or AGM114Ls even though US helos are terrible and unplayable.
AH1W needs 9Ms and 1Z needs 9x.
Ah6M needs to be 9.7 cuz it doesnt have CMs, ATAMs, or even enough engine power to fly with rockets.
Hinds need to be 10.3 not 9.7 cuz they have literally everything you could ever want and are OP for their BR.
Where TF are the AGM122 sidearms?
As for the AH64E, that better get JAGMs which are bascially AGM114Ls but with the option to be Passive Radar homing SEAD missiles too.
This is quite annoying as it will make vikhris the best missile in the game again.
No it won’t… that and heli PVP isn’t a game mode anymore.
TY-90 will still be the best helicopter equipped anti-air missile.
@Sandwich1776
Vehicle development takes longer than one major update to do.
Research, written plan, execution of plan, quality assurance, dev server, publication.
Patience is key here.
USA have AGM-114L which is a fnf variant of hellfire missiles but gaijin wont add it cuz it can see through smoke and would be “too op”. Anyway here’s 6 Kh38MT because it’s balanced.
(AGM-114L uses active radar homing as their guidance, not IR, thats why it can see thru smoke)
