mate thats a watch movement
We have proof of its deployment in Ukraine but only in SAL, so far this weapon is only being used against infrastructure, I doubt an IR version would be used on vehicles or armor, it seems like such an overkill system for very little strategic value.
An IR version would be useful against ships or larger targets, I really don’t think it would have been used for anything else.
Be patient lol then they will give a rocket stronger than KH38.
Dang so they reverse-Germany’d the missile lmao
Wonder why they would do this…
Would Hammers actually destroy the game just like what MT did?
No bc if OP is right about Hammers (from what I’ve seen so far, he is), they will be relegated to laser guidance for moving targets
They already do.
IR guided Hammers are doing multi-frag runs.
And laser guided makes their platform even more untouchable.
I’m glad we’re finally getting new top SPAA this year.
Why? Aren’t they IIR?
They will add an underperforming SPAA to NATO full of bugs and inacuracies, but add a full capable SPAA to Russia with zero bugs.
Yeah but apparently their seeker is only good for semi-stationary targets, not moving stuff like tanks in WT
Hammer does not track targets. It activates it’s seeker 1,5km above the predesignated target, takes a picture of the general area, locates on it predesignated target and corrects itself onto it. IR hammer is a anti facility weapon, not anti tank
So just like JDAMs but with a little addition? Correct me if im wrong.
Doubt. 2S6 and Pantsir came in with a number of issues.
Pantsir still has issues in automatic mode despite manual mode being fixed later last year.
Time will tell what the new SPAA systems will have, and I’m hoping the “Pantsir is OP” crowd was ignored and they instead add SPAA that’s actually capable against CAS in-game.
Does that mean War Thunder’s implementation is over-performing according to your post’s claim here?
Entirely stationary. seeker functions in a similar method to the storm shadow where it only exists to match up the target ahead of it to the data stored in the weapon before launch.
Yes. It is a GPS with termila IR homing for situations like GPS jamming etc.
Yes
Want me to back it up?
Ok thanks
So basically boosted JDAM?
Effectively. iirc the addition of IIR can effectively nullify inertial drift by allowing correction onto the target in the terminal stage. Improved precision of the hammer something like tenfold against fortifications.
Thanks for the infos, but from what i heard there’s no capable US missile like 38MT that can be added.
