NATO AGMs are bad compared to Kh-38s, that doesn’t mean Mavericks/Brimstones are bad missiles.
btw now multiple nations are getting SPICE 250 and other IR guided CAS weaponry (hell naw, JAS39E has 16 SPICE 250s), so i think that’s the Gaijin’s response to the “complainments” about the Kh-38MT.
1: Extra Plates which can only be seen in the CDK which results in less spall which goes into the Ammorack.
2: wierd Bugs which make them stronger:
Like, Commander Cubola not having Collision…
ERA beeing that broken that it can completly catch a Tandem charge…
it says the Kh-38M was developed as a “universal AGM”, made to use different seekers, included SAL, IR and ARH.
russian tanks suck, the only good thing of them is their CAS.
The issue with it being a “universal AGM” is that there’s zero proof besides mockups that the IR (and the ARH/GNSS seekers if they were in game) seeker head existed…
yeah but u know how Gaijin works, if something is capable of using something but has never been proven, it’s enough for them to add it (even if im completely against that opinion).
Yeah ofc in a game mode where tanks are the baseline every agm is good.
But the KH38MT being a lot better than the competitors is only part of the problem, the main complaint is plain and simply that it doesn’t fulfill the standards that additions to the game should have.
It might be but we’re still comparing Mach 1 release max, low yield warhead gliding coughin baby’s to a Mach 2 huge warhead hydrogen bomb.
have never played GRB with Mavericks, but i used them in the F-15I against AI targets and they can’t get a lock at 20km and don’t make me talk if u’re looking through a cloud…
NATO has always had/preferred quantity over quality… or at least that’s what Gaijin thinks.
That’s not the Kh-38MT
There being a “universal carrier” doesn’t matter when the version Gaijin implemented doesn’t exist, better yet, where did they even get the idea all Sukhoi’s can carry 6 of them? They’re limiting the amount of bombs on the Tornado SLE because “there’s no proof” but somehow Russia isn’t a case of that, lmao.
go make a topic about NATO carrying better things than the ugly Mavericks or AGM-179 having lofting and i will for sure give u a +1. WT is not just Russia and the day i will end my grind for the russian tech tree i will want to grind another nation (and i have been grinding other nations), so i would like to see other nations getting OP things too.
i just play Russia for fun, not cuz they have the best things, and i’m completely against unfair and unjustified superiority.
but there’s proof of THIS being real, MUAHAHAHAHA!!!
If you really want depression try flying CAS with brimstones when the enemy has a SAMP, Pantsir and NASAMS up. That’ll really make you work for a kill.
Which is fine, everyone gets what they use but in the current meta agm speed and not having release speed limits really makes a difference. My Rafale is infinitely more comfortable to use as CAS than my EFT despite the latter having vastly more air to ground munition
F-2A gameplay:
i have never used a Typhoon (rather im grinding for them just like im grinding for the Rafale), but tbh i don’t feel it’s that hard when u have thermals, good optics, speed/maneuverability and if u get close they can do pretty much nothing since most of them use erectable-launchers.
if u’re playing with Germany u only have to worry about EldE 98 since all ARH missiles will just crash into the ground if u multipath (or at least that works against the BUK).
It might seem like that but trust me keeping a laser lock in 13.0 ground with the amount of spaa we have rn is not a situation you want to be in even with the very good fm etc of the Typhoon. The main problem is really that you can effectively only engage one vehicle at a time. It’s doable but much, much more effort than just using FnF munitions.
yeah i still love the logic of Gaijin and their bugged game:
CAS too good → make OP SPAA
OP SPAA → make CAS too good
CAS too good → make OP SPAA…
Gaijins favoritism.
The RU tree is filled with non-existant equipment loadouts that weren’t spec or production. NATO tanks are generally forced to utilize the equipment they deployed with - not what was theorized or fantasized.
RU tanks also have the kh-38t on their side - a fantasy missile introduced so the Russian dei program can continue.
Nevermind the fact that since this game has started there’s the whole stalinium issue - shells magically disappearing or not penetrating on RU tanks. Meanwhile on pretty much anyone else that tends to not be the case.
Also there’s the ‘small’ issue of the BMPT and it being basically a hunk of shit for anti-armor duties in UKR - yet here its ruining top tier with mythical ERA loadouts and firepower they don’t possess or execute on in real life. And before you try to screech about the PUMA - doesn’t matter, both are broken, both need to be nerfed(or needed to in the PUMA’s case) but at least the PUMA was based on actual combat performance to some extent. The BMPT is just based on pro-russian delusions.
Actually, NATO tanks use shells 20~ years out of production rather than their actual armament. While Russian tanks have inflated armor values.
Depends on the cone of spalling.
