As far as I know, the AW159 doesn’t have DIRCM. The LMM missiles it uses are multi-purpose, they fly fast but the warhead only weighs 3kg.
with 600mm pen it would require more than one missile to take out a top tier russian tank
The CM502g warhead has a TNT equivalent of 7.68 kg. I don’t think the LMM would exceed that, but the LMM can reach Mach 1.5 and has better overload performance.
Then I guess LMMs would be only effective against lightly armoured vehicles. How many Gs can this missile pull?

I’m not too sure about this, but this thing is meant to be used as a shoulder-fired anti-air missile for individual soldiers, so its overload performance shouldn’t be too bad.

Can carry either 2 AGM-176 or 2 Hydra/APKWS

that is just… cursed beyond believe
If gaijin are feeling nice it will be able to carry spike NLOS for dealing with heavier targets.
It’s integrated into the Korean Wildcats and has been shown alongside British ones.
Currently it can definitely carry 4 Spikes total, 2 per wing, but they are mounted on the racks that can carry 2 additional spikes underneath so there is potential for 8 total.
I don’t think the Spike racks fit on the inner pylon because of the way it is shaped, but I may well be wrong about that

where gamba tho :c
I smell WIP Devblog soon (maybe)…
What missile is that, the one placed in the box with only the guidance head exposed, AGM-114 or AGM-179?
Spike NLOS
Alas（sigh）
It’s the same guidance package as Starstreak, Other seekers were offered but not developed or purchased.
