Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

game is game, irl is irl. irl no tank can still be operatable after hit by a large HE
and CM-502 is not Hellfure equal, there are others

It is 7kg last time I checked

In game it is model as a blast fragmentation, they change it on the dev.

it’s the TNT equal charge weight. ant any real exhisiting weight

They could have just made the CM502KG a FnF AKD10

that wouldnt be accurate though would it. i thought you guys wanted accuracy in Chinese equipment?

wouldnt that make it overpeforming, since it should be SAP-HE?

it is 11 last time i checked, 7 is the TNTe

no, the blast framentation warhead is correct.

ingame, its 4.52kg and tnte is 7.68kg

It is the best guess. Same as many guesses for capabilities of Chinese weapons

You’d think the Chinese officials would have refused the missile if it can’t even reach the performance of the AKD10

i meant that the warhead weight used is 11kg

Thats just speculation, there are more missiles in development alongside this model, and it does surpasses the capabilities of the akd10 against soft targets.

Depends on the mission profile intended for CM-502 vs AKD10, for the types of targets brought up in the brochure posted earlier a HE-FRAG warhead would be infinitely more effective than a HEAT warhead, you wouldn’t use an impact wrench to dig a hole nor would you use a shovel to change a tire.
That’s not even getting into the difference between a “mission kill” irl, and the total destruction or total crew loss needed for a kill in game.

If the CM502KG is not suitable for defeating armoured vehicles, Gaijin should choose another missile to add to the Chinese helis. Is this the missile that Gaijin themselves said will “break the balance” of the game when added?

Also what about the state of the Chinese SPAA like HQ17, Tor, or CS/SA5? Is it fair for China to get shitty SPAAs because Gaijin said so?

What?

In game it is suitable, 7kg of tnt is sufficient to overpressure, the issue with them is mainly the attack angle and inconsistent hit placement (which all missiles have), if it had the loft and impact angle of the LMUR it would kill far more often.

me 262b-1a/u1 with x-4 missile and 2 500kg bomb and the 4 30mm gun
