The Kh-38MT may not actually exist

I don’t disagree, but I also don’t see Tornadoes getting any of their snazzy kit in the forseeable future. Except for maybe storm shadow?

So lets give the Su-30SM a fake weapon because it turns a little worse than a Typhoon

But give the Typhoon a variant of the Brimstone it never used and then nerf that variant into an unrecognisable state

BRIMSTONE 2

THE BRIMSTONE IT ACTUALLY USED

Again. Why does the Su-30 need a paper weapon that NOTHING is even close to matching in terms of performance, with equals like the Brismtone 2 and AGM-84 SLAM not added to the game AND to the same nation with the ONLY truly effective top tier SPAA.

Nah, we wont get Storm Shadow.

I had a thought that something is wrong. I’m just tired…

But they could add the thing wrong and upset both the French and English, which means we’re certain to get it at some point.

You’re mixing up two lines for reasoning there, if the Su-30SM “needs” the KH-38MT is disconnected from how realistic that weapon is.

Sure, maybe that would work, but they’re probably just saving it up for later, it’s not like there’s many things that can be added left. The Brimstone I also does pretty well already from what I’ve seen.

Not because it’s good, that’s for sure.

Hu?

What about Brimstone 3 and Spear-3?

Let alone adding MMW and then LOAL

That is the worst argument I have ever seen.

And what is there to add after KH-38?

Dont confuse the Brimstone 1 being a “good” weapon with mostly German Pilots who have made the Tornado ASSTA1 work for the past 2 years against Pantsirs, and ARH CAP with only GBUs doing well in the Typhoon with largely the same weapon.

Britain and Italy also still have a lot of latent experience doing the same.

Personally I prefer just running PW4s on the Typhoon, I find the Brimstone 1s more hassle than its worth, especially as they rarely 1 hit kill.

Just as a final nail in the coffin, They are even denying the Brimstone 1 its IRL kinematic performance (Report)

Kh 50(?), Kh 55, Kh 47, Kh 32, and Kh 101 maybe?

I think I lost a few numbers. We could get cluster bombs too. Those would be neat. Also the thingos the Tupolev bomber carries on the silly rotating drum. Which I may have listed but I am unsure of.

and what are all those?

Isnt KH-55 a cruise missile?

So thats then Storm Shadow and Taurus

KH-47 is hypersonic cruise missile. which equivalents are being developed at the moment

KH-32 is also a cruise missile

as is KH-101.

So if we add all available weapons to the Typhoon, then that is stuff like Brimstone 2, Brimstone 3, Spear-3, Marte ER, ALARM, AGM-88, etc etc.

Yup, BL755, MW-1 and JP233 would be really fun to get as well.

THis has been thrown together for fun recently.

I am pretty sure there are some others similar to what we have, but you’re gonna have to cut me some slack. I can’t remember all the Russian numbers, they didn’t bother to keep them ordered 😿

yeah CBU-105 would be a lot of fun

You got a full downtier…? And ? I’ll admit I’m no top of the line pilot, but I’m pretty good. And only having 2x R73s is weak

Also this must be air ab

Yes the game mode with no markers the Radar is not important…Some take there bud

I don’t play AB lol

If I’m playing air, it’s either sim if I can be bothered setting up (which is rare) or air RB.

Su-39 is still missing over half of its weapon systems lol

Bro either you were in a bot lobby, or it was aab

Interesting claim. Shame neither is correct :p

For the context of GRB there would be little to no difference between Brimstone II and III if I’m not mistaken.

That’s a balancing and gameplay decision that’s holding back quite a few systems currently, most notably the AH-64D.

Nothing I think, unless someone finds a picture of an LMUR glued to a plane. If there’s nothing coming later I can see them adding the KH-38MT so it can be “king of IR AGMs” for a while before the meta moves past it.

What good players can do with a given weapon system is a pretty good indicator of its capabilities I think. What else would you judge balancing on?

Improved IOG and longer range.

if we are stuck with SAL, then Brimstone 3 would be quite a major boost.

But it is still something that can be later added.

You said that Brimstone 2 might not be added because

So Brismtone 2, 3 and Spear-3 and then going back and adding MMW versions and then going back again and adding LOAL versions is at least 9 new weapons that can be added (10 if you also split Spear-3 into GPS only, GPS+SAL, GPS+SAL+MMW and then GPS+SAL+MMW+LOAL) Let alone other weapon types like CBUs, ARM and cruise missiles.

Right, and it never existed. That is what this thread is about. Proof it actually existed.

So far, the evidence for it existing is the same as the A2G ASRAAM, which would be a good alternative to MMW Brimstones.

So Soviets need the KH-38MT because they are bad at the game, and Germany, Italy and Britain dont need the Brimstone 2 because they are good at the game?

Stat based balancing is a mess and anyone who even half pays attention to the BRs knows that.

which is why for example the Mig-23MLD has a lower Sim Battle rating to the Tornado GR1. So are you saying the Tornado GR1 is better than the Mig-23MLD because its got a higher BR?
