Russian Bias in 2025?

Yes.EFTs yday flying low murdered pantsirs and our tanks like knife going thru butter.

that isnt always true, ive had times where the missile wont find the laser close to 10 seconds before impact, it all depends on the range.

but where it really shows how bad it is is when you cut laser before impact and it drifts completely off target in a couple of seconds

That’s because you had bad Pantsir players or a very good Typhoon pilot.
However anyone even a level 3 could get 5+ kills with KH-38 they have no skill level.

Yes it’s so stupid the missile decides aww he switched the laser off for 3 seconds i’m just going to miss this massive stationary truck i’m guiding to by 5ft…

I knew Gaijin would mess up Brimstones when I read that pathetic dev blog.

2S38 sniped my Typhoon flying at Mach 1.3 on the deck with a single round.
While the actual SPAA the Otomatic was missing it’s shots.

2S38 is just the BMP-2M on steroids remember that and how broken it was? Only IFV that could fire it’s missiles on the move, had darts and air tracking and it was a lower BR than other IFVS.
Now we have the 2S38 and the BMP-2M is fair again.

Relikt stops more than it should it’s overperforming in comparison to it’s real life capabilities and it wouldn’t be so bad if Gaijin didn’t nerf the crap out of NERA armour…Damn why didn’t Europe instead of developing fancy composite armour just wedge 2 plates together with a spacer…

Please, get 2s38, play 100 battles and show stats, they should be amazing if this vehicle is so good as you claim

Skilled player taking a shot against an objectively bad tactic at top BR.
Otomatic having less skill is sad, but oh well.

BMP-2M is more mobile and has ATGMs, and is still the same BR as other IFVs.
2S38 is fair currently as its closest equivalent is over-BR’d currently which makes the 2S38 itself balanced.

Relikt stops exactly what it should. It’s superior to K5 and acts that way.
As for ERA, the reason why NATO doesn’t use ERA on tanks is infantry support in NATO tactics has infantry closer to tanks.
When Abrams is running TUSK, infantry are forbidden from getting close during operations.

That’s not really an argument.

Why were you flying 2-3km away from the battlefield in a 12.7 jet ?

In a Typhoon that has none FnF missiles

K5 with 2 plates instead of 1 actually

You don’t need to be 2-3km away to use Brimstones.

No but you need to fly and follow the missile in.
You don’t get to turn away…which will inevitably bring you over the battlefield in range of SPAA and SAMS

Might want to understand how they actually work before using them as an argument. I mean sure you can fire and forget about them for sure. You just won’t hit anything I’m afraid.

You can do whatever you want while the missile is in the air, you just need to pop out last 3-4 seconds and guide it in.

You fly towards or above it.

Brimstone requires that the aircraft stays within the laser gimbal
You start off high and then need to dive down and end up usually 3-5km from the target as the missile impacts or misses.

Brimstone is not a stand off weapon it is a guided short range rocket

no… it requires that the laser point is inside of the fov of the missile.

Ok lets make this simple for you.

You start high you see the Pantsir…You lock the Pantsir release multiple Brimstones
you fly towards the battlefield as you cannot hover and you cannot climb and fly high as the pantsir will kill you.

So you see the timer and pop up switch the Laser on Pantsir goes active and and starts to shoot down your Brimstones and fires missiles at you at the point your missiles could have impacted you are within 4-5km of the Pantsir.

If you dont defend the Pantsir will kill you if you do defend the Laser module will lose track for a second and the missiles IOG will cause it to drift and miss the target.

It is not a long range weapon because it is too slow.

I couldn’t agree more with you on this. I don’t think many people are even aware how bad of a state the helicopters that do not have the new modules truly are. My two most used heli in the AH-6M and AH-1Z don’t have them yet and I am getting very impatient with this very issue. The amount of times I had to circle back because I got hit by a couple small arms rounds is ridiculous It also screws with its CAP role against jets. The AH-6M suffers the most because it’s entire play style is getting up close with rockets and while I still do it it’s so much more harder to do now and have to take breaks between doing it. All helis 10.3 and up should have gotten them by now and at this rate I don’t think they get finished in a year or two. It’s honestly unacceptable the way it was implemented if I’m honest and got me to quit playing for half a year.

you can release the brimstone and then turn sideways… you dont need to keep going straight into the battlefield.

you can defend yourself while keeping the track…

You can but the impact point puts you in the same place.
You turn away you still need to recommit to get the laser back on track

You cant as well now when you are close range the jet doesnt pull enough AOA
