yeah, i mean ATGM

thank you.

906

Does the US have one? I thought they just had one with hellfires and one with a crazy guy holding a JAV in the middle of a fire fight lol.

907

yeah we have CROWS-J on a few vehicles, most likely ingame on a stryker A1

ik hard to balance but its too cool to not be ingame now that i think of it again

No explicit planning for Ajax (infact the only references to Javelin and Ajax is towards the Ares APC)

Ah, that would make sense.

We also need the overwatch variant

i think JLTV would be better vehicle, but would be cool to see this too

912

I wonder how gaijin would balance the Ares Overwatch when its missiles should be fire and forget

913

and thats easy. they’ll be SAL only

914

True which massively limits how effective they would be

915

If we got it as well, lets just hope they dont pull a typhoon and limit them to Brimstone 1s

916

I doubt there would be any reason to limit it to brimstone 1s when most of the maps in game the longest you are hitting some one is 2.5km

917

for safety of helicopters lol

could be used as makeshift SPAA with brimstone 2 or 3

918

I think helicopters are some of the last things that need protection tbh

i guess?

i dont really care if it gets brimstone 2 or 3 SAL since by then AH-1Z and AH-64E will have JAGM-MR and latest gen SPIKE-NLOS probably

hopefully we have researchable drones by then too

920

I doubt we will get JAGM-ERs or Brimstones on helicopters as with planes they dont like the idea of radar guided A2G weapons

We have high BR ATGM launchers, including a few with FnF ATGMs. So I dont think the Ajax Overwatch is actually all that unreasonable as it replaces the Gun + Spike with only Brimstones. It would basically be a modern Striker.

It could come fairly soon without issue imo. Heck, we even have a radar guided ATGM ground vehicle already in game

922

JAGM-MR is three mode seekr. IIR, Laser, MMW. probably has some GPS capability but not sure. for game, they could just not give it the MMW mode

yeah, would be nice to see more specialized ATGM vehicle like Ajax Overwatch and LAV-AT, M1253A1, M1256A1

924

Should be a subtree
