Time to add the AH64E with JAGM,Longbows and DIRCM.

It will show up so much in fact, that you can home on it, a bit like home-on-jam for ARH missiles
No they aren’t, in fact, i don’t even think both met each other IRL yet

it is OP, its also as far as I can tell the only reason the KA52 and to a lesser extent the mi28NM are 12.0 though, normal radar and saclos missiles still work and arent going away
We still need equivalent Helicopters to other nations, AH64D is rotting with Hellfires from the 80’s, they’re slow and old and i don’t even bother to spawn it anymore.
Also imagine spawning your new shiny SAM and you launch at a MI28,KA52 and your missiles don’t do anything to it, crazy huh?

and yet most sources I can find say they would be effective
that isnt how lasers or IIR works

yeah I dont understand how the ah64D is 12.0 when these things are, at least the spike helicopters finally went up last update but helicopters in general have very questionable balance
spike launchers could go up to 12.7, the ka52 and mi28nm to 12.3 and then leave the ah64D and its partners at 12.0, leaves room for an ah64e to go to 13.0 depending on how the agm114L and other loal munitions are added

Yeah but the dev server is still going so we can still only hope for them to do something about it.
BR changes and major updates rarely coincide, this will probably be ignored till the october BR changes
I was talking about the AH64E with new missiles to replace the AH64D, but yeah i got you.
Care to share ?
I have this : https://www.spie.org/news/5614-ir-imaging-seekers-may-be-very-resistant-to-laser-jamming
Actually if i find enough sources i’ll work on a report
dont you love those videos subtly hinting to russian bias?
That ain’t happening god for bid a top tier US heli would be finally useable. It’s too a point where a premium heli is gong to better than the end of the TT heli. Gaijin yet again letting US helis rot.

god forbid a russian heli gets verba
Because there’s a Russian bias?
not anymore, this is quite the source you have found, very cool
source 3 and 4 from that source present seemingly valuable information
though I suspect the DIRCM would be more effective at range as the diffraction of the laser could possibly block the entirety of the missile FOV at a certain range
though surely seeker shut of IRCCM missiles like the aim9M would be able to somewhat block out the laser and guide on iog assuming its a silly helicopter player that sits on hover mode

most links seem dead unfortunately
I’m trying with archives.
link N°4 seems to work though
the doi links are fine
this one seemed promising
doi:10.1117/12.2067264
these two might be good but are locked
doi:10.1117/12.2067264
doi:10.1117/12.869848
mind you we have to remember that these sources are a lot of mights and coulds, they arent using practical tests which means gaijin might not like them

Do you think anyone cares? (ykwim)
Think back to when Pantsir was added ;)
