Well, a little challenge for CAS players wouldn’t be so bad I think :p
Just like SPAAs had to figure out how to engage something that can quite handily kill them.
Its hard enough dealing with Pantsirs in the Typhoon, let alone stuff weaker than the Typhoon like a Tornado Gr4.
So I think CAS at the bare minimum need a chance to fight back ,even if thats just GPS-Only weapons like adding Spear-3s to the Typhoon.
(and on a personal note, I dont really give much of a crap about GRB, but I want historically accurate loadouts for aircraft like the Tornado Gr4 for use in ASB, but its denied because of GRB balance, so if adding the IRIS-T SLM enables MMW to be added, then great, I can finally have MMW for ASB)
because CAS is struggling very much at top tier right??
Su-30 with KH-38MT? No
Typhoon with Brimstone 1? Could at least have its IRL Brimstone 2s.

right, you struggle to use the Typhoon got it

Just my opinion but isn’t 18 brimstones a bit too much? I don’t know their performance of course, so if they’re bad (besides the fact that they are quite limited right now) then I’d partially understand it.
I’m of the opinion that CAS should be one of the hardest things to do in that game mode because it is ground focused. So someone wanting to CAS needs to use varied tactics to get a successful hit. Not free reign to launch their payloads from orbit or at range and then RTB

Again…
I couldnt care less about GRB or the state of CAS at the moment, Top tier tanks are so badly balanced that unless you are in the top 3 tanks, you might as well not even bother playing top tier.
I want aircraft like the Tornado Gr4 and Typhoon to have some of their IRL performance for other gamemodes like ASB.
I know, shock horror, there are other gamemodes to GRB in War Thunder

might i ask what you consider to be the top 3 tanks in grb?
Again, I dont entirely disagree, though if we have Su-30s firing KH-38MT or F-15E, Gripen C, F-16, etc etc firing GBU-39s from beyond the range of an IRIS-T SLM. Then I dont think its unreasonble to ask for the Typhoon to have something similar.
Its already artificially nerfed rather massively for "reasons " so a GPS gudied stand off weapon I think its a bare minimum ask and would be great fun for ASB
this is the craziest post today holy crap

Some others are okay like the Leclerc.
But for me in the Challenger 2, I just dont see the point. If Im in the mood for GRB, I play 10.3 with the Challenger Mk2
lol
Great argument. Phenomenal, even.

Even better argument. What will he say next?
BVM in top3 in 2025…
and you mentioned leclerc. Merkava is superior to leclerc luckily so we end up with at least 7 nations that are worth playing?
