It looks cool and Latvia. It’s enough for me.

Because they are cool pretty shrimple

Any changes to the Situation?

I’ll see myself out :p

Why does everyone seem to forget about multi-spectral smoke grenades? Many modern tanks have smoke grenades with chaff mixed in to block MMW radar. As a specific example, American vehicles are equipped with the M81 66mm smoke grenade, which does exactly that.

I believe one of the MiG-27s has their KH-31 restricted to NE only.

Because Gaijin seems too busy doing other silly stuff and doesn’t seem to care about adding stuff like multi-spectral smoke or reworked countermeasures

The problem is you don’t know when to deploy that smoke. Yes, it’s a counter, but MMW guidance would negate APS - the only other counter to air to ground munitions with the exception of cover and such. You’d have a counter that you wouldn’t know how to deploy - much like IR/TV guided missiles being a pain in the ass in the lower tiers.

Should still add MMW though.

It’s the exact same way with IR guided missiles though. You either have to see the launch or notice your teammates dying them to know you should pop smoke. So if they implemented multi-spectral smokes like that, it would make no noticeable difference.

The only way MMW would negate an APS is by coming in from too high of an angle for it to see. Which can already be done by IR weapons. The most effective way of using them (dropping them from straight above) does do this.

Brimstones seeker counteracts this since it doesn’t use the standard frequency the smokes blocks. It wouldn’t work and if it did a lot of nations don’t use it

They should just get busy adding CIWS vehicles for as many nations as possible

After doing that they can go wild with A2G weapons

Except they do do it when they feel like it. Otherwise the F-16XL would not have amraams and the Yak-141 wouldn’t have any of its missiles.

They do that for vehicles that didn’t enter service, the Gripen is in service
