Major Update "Firebirds" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

The germans as afar as I know dont use the Brimstones. Aka the ASSTA 3.1 will be as good as the Tornado we have rn.

So thats something then. Gives us a chance. Even just the ability to IOG at multiple targets in rapid succession would do me and not true FnF.

Also Litening III right? And thats Gen 3?

Who cares about Brimstone???

I fully expect it to behave like a Hellfire, so it will say IOG on the startcard but the memory guidance will be non-existent

GR.4 will be a nothing burger

They just don’t want GR4 to be better than SM3. BTW Su34 also have Kh38

good luck with Paveways, see alot of german Tornados at top tier

well whatdo you care about then?

it will be no improvement of the CAS

its funny that you have ignored the fact we are asking for a normal FnF mode not the LOAL mode and if you think 9 brimstones that will take over a minute from their maximum range to reach the battlefield are op cant wait till the Su34 gets 6 far better missiles which are far far far faster

Not true.

Okay so regarding speed, how fast are brimstones in comparison to mavericks or hellfires? Their speed will be the only saving grace and benefit now

Not guaranteed though. 1

That’s correct yes. It’s explained in the dev blog why the other two modes would not work in game. We already have weapon systems in game locked to a single mode.

I care about it, it will probably come out today

Dont worry AS34s will surely do something some day

This is incorrect. It’s a fully historical mode the weapon has. We already have weapons in game locked to singular modes.

no, iog has deviations, even bomb will get a hit. and Brimstone’s seeker will keep searching laser.
It will more like AGM-114 on Helis, you fire one by one with some time gap, kill one then change target.

And, if the 34 gets added, no AA it will face can reliably deal with it.
Best option is CAP. Good luck with that
