true, but its still disappointing to see it come Into the game this way
Thats not how to look at poor implementation of weapon systems.
“Ah well it’s crap dont use it”.
I would accept if it was crap IRL or it had a history of being anything but unreliable.
With Brimstone that is Britains pinacle missile. There is only Stormshadow and SPEAR
This issue extends past Tornado and onto Typhoon.
This isn’t a critiscism of everyone who managed to get the missile ingame but of how poorly Gaijin have modelled it. and their lack of compromise in trying to make the system useable.
what aspects specifically do you consider to be poorly implemented?
Brimstone has been modelled fully historically in its SAL mode with all of the capabilities that mode had.
It’s already been explained why FnF modes cannot be added currently.

I am aware of the statement issued by Gaijin and as of now ingame with the threats they face at the BR level they are not at the level of the Tornados contemporaries.

Every new missile system added to game for it to be playable is a FNF one.
A compromise for playability should have been made as mentioned Typhoon will also have Brimstone and we know MMV mode isn’t coming to game (likely ever) we have this system that is just not up to par.
Britains best CAS option is the Harrier GR.7 or JAS-39 and that shouldnt be the case.
What maximum range Brimstone can be fire anyway?
you know what would be nice the stock loadout being 5 bombs instead of 4 as killing a base gives much more rp
Would also be nice for it to get aim9M stock like a lot of planes seem to get now? Especially given you know, no aim120s, unless the test loadout is lying to me as I dont have it unlocked yet lol.
Honestly dont get why it has 9Ls as an option/stock given everyone and their dog gets stock fox 3.
it should also go down to 12.0 at a min in air rb
@Smin1080p_WT now that we know Brimstone isn’t as great as the devs thought, could we have the wing pylons added please?
These were denied for balance reasons which no longer seems like it should be a factor.

so did the brimstones get any kind of buff from the dev server or do they still not reach 20km? I see they never upped the guidance time, which I feel like is a massive slap in the face
There is no meaning on it， Believe it or not, you have no chance to use all of 9 missle Before you Being shut down . The current most important reason is that a tornado is just garbage in 12.3
No changes has happened.
do you think the devs will add the FnF mode in a few weeks time to maybe a couple of months when they realise the missile is kinda trash, at least that is what I am hearing

how am I not surprised that all the bug reports that happened on the FIRST dev server none of the one that would improve the usability of the missile were fixed
It’s not completely unchanged. They changed the weight of it.Very funny, isn’t it?
oh boy I bet that give it its irl 20km range right lol
at the very least the PGM IRs are pretty good
I wish this was the case but this is the UK we are talking about, they completely forgot the challenger 2 buffs they talked about months ago and i think, sadly, this is going to be the same story
yeah… I do hope we see the FnF modes since right now they just arent worth taking from what Ive heard, the IR PGMs are far better
