The double standards on gaijin is pure comedy,
“Dual mode Brimstone is too powerful for the game”
- tries adding grom2 in the same patch and renders nato rwr useless for no reason
I just dont get why it was only nato RWRs that were hit with the nerf
Looks like IIR PGMs might be coming with the update?
Vehicle lock range 20km rather than 12km, it has a lower track rate of 2.5deg/s while TV has 10, angleMax (seeker gimbal limit maybe?) is 54 while TV is 45 but that could just be a typo. As far as I can see the other seeker properties are the same.
Spoiler
PGM IIR+IOG will be available for GR.4 and the RMV. The other PGM carriers will retain their TV versions. But the TV version is also getting a range increase and IOG.

Will they be getting just the IIR versions or both? If they get both, will they be separate mods or included in one PGM mod?
GR.4 and RVM will have IR only currently.

neat another reason to actually get the tornado thats cool
will they work like the KH38MT and AGM65s where they can only lock the ground from 20km and then once they reach 12km they can lock tanks if they are near to where it locked the ground?

Oh thank god.

I hope the PGM improvement will simulate datalink and target selection after launch. It would be nice to give the Brimstones a fictitious IRH… Since you’re already afraid of the ARH. But that would make life too easy for Tornado pilots, right?
What I’m curious about is how Brimstone manages to drain its battery in 60 seconds if the power to power the radar needs to be on during those 60 seconds?
60 seconds is probably wrong. Hopefully they’ll buff it

Hellfires are 45s iirc and the Brimstone is the same form factor with a 33% battery improvement, it’s not too bad imo
@Gunjob any updates on brimstone flight speed over distance or is it still on course to arrive to the game like a flying noodle after it spent a certain of time in flight 😂
So how potent are these IR PGM’s gonna be compared to the TV ones we currently have?
Yes but iirc the drag of the missile seems to not actually allow it to reach its max range and causes it to bleed speed far to fast
They can be used at night. They can lock onto ground targets from twice the range. The GR.4 has a much MUCH better TGP. And both of them get IOG so you can get a lot more wiggle room for shots over a long distance

IOG will also help prevent them just exploding below you upon launch
Why they really need to replace them with SAL only Brimstone 2s. I think being limited to SAL, the Brimstones 2 would be a more fair counter-part to the KH-38 or AGM-65
Will they also be able to track moving ground targets from greater range?
