Which is all im asking for, SAL Brimstone 2 as an equal to the KH-38MT.
Spear-3 IIR seeker is an unknown. Primary sources dont state it, but secondary sources suggest it. But its unclear if they are confusing the listed “multi-mode seeker” as having one because similar US weapons listed with the same have all 3, like the JAGM-ER.
In any case, even just GPS-Only Spear-3 would be more workable than nothing at all. Especially in gamemodes other than GRB (Shocker I know, there are other gamemodes than just GRB)
If KH-38MT is too remain, then equivalent AGMs need to be added to the other 8 nations.
Im straight up not playing it at all at the moment because the state of the radar is infuriating in ASB.
I spend more time babysitting the radar than I do actaully flying the damn thing
I wasn’t aware of that. Either way, if we’re keeping the KH-38MT and the AASM SBU64 in their current states an IIR SPEAR 3 would be less of a reach than giving a Brimstone a seeker in never had, so I’d prefer that route.
Hm, yeah, maybe it is more of a problem in SIM, I can’t play that. We were mostly talking about GRB here, and in that mode it is extremely opressive, even with the current state of the radar.
Perhaps, though given the niche playstyle required of SAL Brismtone, should be a priority to get its missing GMTI/T radar mode. Its annoying that the Su-34, Su-30 and F-15E have it, but the Typhoon (and in fairness the Rafale) had it on dev server but never made it too live. Would make the weapon system far more usable.
GMTI/T is pretty useless for GRB, it’s a lot quicker and less cumbersome to find and lock targets with a thermal targeting pod. I wouldn’t mind having it, but I can’t see it making any difference at all.
Was on the dev server, I dont recall it ever being in the live game. Fairly certain I checked first thing in a test flight and I had it day 1 or 2 and I dont recall it being there ever
It isn’t the only IR + IOG weapon so it definitely has it’s equals. That is if you don’t think all of them should perform absolutely the same in order to achieve the balance.
AJ is a fictional plane that’s still in the game, while other vehicles get rejected because they lack evidence or are fictional themselves. It’s an obvious double standard and community should’ve been mad long time ago.
@bertgame
Yes, plane BR is a mix of variables, not just AGM strength.
f16aj is just a clown that was added to fill the gap in Japan’s top aviation. Japan even has 5th generation aircraft, they could have introduced them, but the Gaijin decided to make a compromise. In addition, Japan has the F-15J, which is better than the 16th.
such a disengenuos response, its 2.5x the speed of equals, does more or equal demage depending wether you compare it to aasm or agm65, and it outranges both.
then you got the f16aj which is just an f16 like any other 12.7 f16.
Please let’s avoid creating even more chaos in here… if something is off-topic or rule-breaking feel free to flag it, mods will take care of it. There’s no need to discuss about it since it leads to even more off-topic.
Keep it clean.
