Marlet is a development of the Starstreak generally speaking. Its a beam riding / SAL missile like the 9K121 Vikhr.

3kg warhead, good overload performance, multi-functional ammunition, 1.5 Mach. That’s it.

Marlet/LMM is an evolution of the Starburst SAM, which got developed alongside starstreak. HEAT-FRAG warhead with medium pen (~500-600mm is the claim I typically see). ~6 to 7km range.

Is there any possibility of seeing Martlet/LMM added to the Stormer HVM once it is in game?

Oh, any word on sea venom AShMs coming?
Not with this major update, as its not something planned or under active consideration for this major update right now. The Wildcat will be the launch platform for this missile for now, which will allow the devs to assess its gameplay inpact before making any decisons about existing vehicles which currently have settled down at their BRs.

Trillion Leopard blogs as well as Rank IX reskins will drop in the usual devblog season. But I like the emphasis on original vehicles as they now are discussed for a week at least.

We’re also working on pods featuring a special variant of the SPIKE ATGM for the AW159

Btw the devblog does not mention that it will be placed at the tree. Considering Superhind is a squadron vehicle and Rooikat is a premium, it won’t be surprising to see this as a new fresh Rank VI pack.
After all the June post on more original premiums did not drop without a purpose
bro…
Will it be beam riding only, or will we get 2, beam riding and SAL?
Have you thought about adding Starstreak missiles to the AW159? That would be really interesting.
Seems like a quick fix. Do not remember the “in the research tree” part
Currently there is a bit of a lack of info here. There is an image where they appear to be mounted, but its not clear that it is Starstreak for certain and not something for testing purposes. So they are not currently planned.
Surely this isnt the only Helis this patch :3
How about any anti-ship weapons like the Sting Ray Torpedo or the K745 Blue Shark?
Look me in the eyes and say the next version will have the AW249：3
We dont have this type of weaponry on helicopters currently.
I really hope MITL on helis does not return this major, Or they atleast nerf it in some way so it isn’t just broken…
IRL, it’s extremely powerful, which is the whole point of having it available. Personally, I’m hoping they’ll fully implement it, but also raise the BRs of the helicopters appropriately so that they only face ground vehicles that stand a chance against them (so 13.0–13.3 or higher).
Personally, I’d like to see decompression first in high-tier ground battles, as 11.7–12.7 is so compressed that we’re seeing major combat vehicles and weapon systems from the 1980s through the 2020s all within the same BR range.
