In my humble opinion Kh-59 is kind of a nothingburger. Think about it, it’s going to have the radar signature of a skyscraper and you can’t carry that many of them. It should be easily defeated by top tier AA systems. If the argument is wasting AA’s missiles then there are way better options considering LMURs, Kh-38s, Vikhrs, etc. >100 km max range seems scary but past a certain point it becomes irrelevant for the way the game is right now.

You’re right. Instead Russia should have gotten the Grom-1s.
b-but it has 2000km range or something!!!
Honestly with the kh59 coming they should give us the grom1 back
The only problem I would have with the Kh-59 is if they remain exclusive to the su30mk2 instead of being added to the others that could also carry it

Except some nations dont have adequate SPAA to defeat them so what do they do? Just die?

hence why the argument that western versions are two advanced is so god damn dumb, ohno it has an IR seeker instead of a TV seeker ohnoooo its not like past 20km its unguided via GNSS anyway but clearly 6 KH38MTs arent an issue with a 70km range GNSS oh and IR

You just fire all of your 4 missiles into them, hoping they hit.
The Su-30 will now have 7 missiles.
And? It’s still 1 per pylon so it’s not like it restricts your stored kills capacity. And why should this come alone when the SLAM is already overdue with the KH-38MT (fake) being in-game.
It would be so funny if the Kh-59 is a Su-30MK2 exclusive.
And explosive mass high enough to eviscerate a grid square
I don’t know Hawk 200 it’s early or late production until tomorrow
Woah woah woah there buddy. The sky’s falling and you’re being reasonable? Stop that! It’s all ogre now!
/s
its wild seeing the gymnastics the devs have to do to deny FnF or even GNSS weapons for western jets but for russia its fine

Might be one of these, but the angle isn’t good for checking serial numbers
If it’s so reasonable then why isn’t the SLAM coming?
