Because we can’t get data for its range it had the effect of making its flight time longer over range causing severe speed bleed caused by excess drag to make it fit with gaijin current implementation to the extent that towards the latter stages of its flight it can barely keep itself in the air controllable and wiggles around like a worm and can causes the missile to completely miss the target because of this. Unless that got changed between devserver and live
The copy pasted IOG from hellfire doesn’t help either unless it got changed?
we already asked about IOG back on the dev server and apparently its accurate, its only meant to get the missile to the general location not hit the exact spot
the only thing that would change this besides alterations to drag is a change to the motor, and as we have a source for Brimstone motor performance the alternative would be adding Brimstone 2. There’s nothing to be done for Brimstone DM aside from potentially increasing the battery life, which makes no difference to this point.
Hellfire has a drift of 3.5, Brimstone has a drift of 2 (GNSS has a drift of 0). PID changes would have more of an impact.
This would be my desired solution for the GR4. Wouldnt really be any better than the KH-38 in terms of range, but would minimise loiter time for the GR4
@Smin1080p_WT dont know who to contact, but currently while using the Tornado GR4, I cannot flare, chaff, or fire missiles above mach 1.01 while also holding bombs. is this a common glitch, or has the bomb release permission been added to everything else by accident?
It will explain why I couldnt drop CMs earlier in an ARB match, but then it started working again and im not sure what I did to get it to work. Though didnt have any issues in SB
I keep getting caught out by the release limit for bombs. I havent played much Tornado in recent months since that change. So Im still use to just staying at max reheat and dropping bombs at mach 1.02 ish without issue
I would love to see the stats on how many people will be using brimstones in a month or so, I can’t imagine many players using it. Also while I do not advocate for brimstones getting their real life seeker capabilities I still don’t understand why they could not just add it so it works like the other weapons we already have in game, and before it is decreed that it wouldn’t be brimstone then why does that sentiment not apply to the AJ 168.
Also the quibbling about game balance in a game like war thunder always makes me chuckle, when I read them say its for balance I just know they mean we don’t want to make it worse. Sorry if this comes of as harsh but we that have invested time and even money into play the UK tree are sick of the status quo of not getting anything meta then after waiting its already DOA.
