I dont remember that, if anything I think its more of them not knowing how to implement them well
I think datamines showed them starting to work on them
and the SEAD event would have been perfect to introduce them but gaijin refused to make it good
“How dare you don’t know how much skills needed to press space bar for every few second outside SPAA range”
Russian main probably.

there are even IR guided APKWS now too, which would be even more insane

Any and every time I’ve been hit by a brimstone, apart from maybe 1 time in my Leo2a7HU, I have died
Can we upgrade it to an anti tank cluster mini nuke bomb? Fallout style?
Youre prolly right, i just couldnt be bothered to check.
issue with that is we dont know if the warhead is the same, and we also know that the IR seeker is rather short range as its meant to shoot down drones not really hit ground targets
They won’t want to implement them as they will feel it’s too rng. Yet the game is already mega rng.
From loot crates to ammo not exploding (Churchill III was the last one that occurred to me, yesterday) and so on. The game is heavily rng
they are
all APKWS can use literally any hydra warhead, its just gaijin BS that we only have SAP and HE in game despite not having SAP or HE unguided hydras

Drones have very low IR signature sooooo
yeah and we also know that it has a rather short range against drones so I doubt it will be very long range against ground targets
it will probably have only like 3-5km effective track range in game, but point lock from further and hydras are fast enough that isnt too bad, would still deal with AA really well
Doesnt need to be. 2 km would be insane even this mere 1km. If u watched me playing a10 with apkws u would know what i mean
So? It further reinforces my point, bringing any sort of “well akshually skilled player can” to the discusion about weapon or vehicle capabilities is useless.
If a skilled player can achieve more kills with brimstones than with Kh-38MT, using the same logic, even more skilled player can achieve even more kills with FFARs with only “skill level” being the limit to the vehicle or weapon capabilities.
Remind me whats the difference in warhead size and type, some 9.80Kg HEAT for brimstone and some 152kg HE for Kh-38MT?

true I just dont think it will be a very big change tbh, I do still find it funny the UK and US are suffering from success that we are pretty much being handicapped because MMV is to good lol

This thread isn’t about brimstones.
This thread is about the kh-38MT.
Nothing else.

Not quite all of them, but practically all of the relevant ones, though this is an outdated chart

yeah idk what gaijin was smoking when they created new SAP and HE warheads for APKWS instead of just giving them the HEAT warheads already in game

that KH-38 looks a bit weird
