Not sure which you mean so I’ll list a few pros and cons of each.

Brimstone II:

  • range: longest consistent range at 60 km depending on model
  • warhead: tandem heat
  • guidance: automated radar targeting or laser designation. (A brimstone missile can select its own target incoordination with other missiles in a salvo)

JAGM:

  • range: 8km
  • warhead: tandem heat
  • guidance: pilot designated radar guidance or laser designation.

GBU-39B/B (all earlier 39s are GPS guided so the laser guided one it is):

  • range: 110km from high alt, it’s a glide bomb so release alt and speed matter a lot.
  • warhead: 16kg blast frag
  • guidance: laser.

AGM-65:

  • range: 22km
  • warhead: blast frag or heat
  • guidance: Laser designation or TV

Take all ranges with a grain of salt, launch alt matters alot for most.

Ok so the usa had more high alt bombs while the Uk had more missiles

That’s cool and all but…

There’s a glide bomb variant of brimstone called Spear 3 that’s on the way as well, but is stuck waiting for the F-35 block 4 software update

  • INS / GPS / IR
  • INS / GPS / laser

What could carry it?

Leclercs should not be defenseless as they are now, so it’s well deserve to be sniped by this if you kill one ! :p

Rafales mainly (cf last picture with crazy loadout), and some late Mirage 2000s perhaps.

So it is a french New generation GBU?

Heh, it’ll be like this for most nations going forwards afaik, you kill the fleshy tank only to have the 4000 ATGMs/GBUs of Nato (and friends) giving you a friendly introduction to jesus

Something like that, yep :)

But with a little rocket engine, it’s not just a droped bomb (can’t do 70km+ if it was the case)
Also with special trajectory for giving less chance to intercept
