implying Gaijin ever gave a dooky about historical reasoning when the Yak-141 and F-16AJ exist in game, or the load of hypothetical/never used loadouts in game

I might have missed it. What did he say?
Now anger, you’re so close to acceptance!

I reached acceptance already. I accept that they suck.

Whats with the reddit-tier psychoanalysis?
Does the boot polish really taste that good?
Did you watch the same video I did? Ofc its not as good as it is irl but this still seems pretty strong compared to the munitions other nations have.

I am reserving final judgement when they model it as brimstone and not hellfire. It’s missing a lot of range and even a prox fuse. I can see a lot more reports in coming weeks as well.
Even at this point, should just give us wing mounted missiles
But overall, initial impression. It is is not a stand off weapons, but a hit and run weapon. Which doesn’t work in GRB at top tier usually.
In ASB, it’s dependent on new objectives for it. Without that, ePaveways will just be superior to use

I have plenty stocked in my cupboard at home, I’m quite fond of the black flavour but I’ll sometimes eat fancy colours as a treat
- long guidance time for an individual weapon
- requires you to stay within the range of the enemy AA for the most part to guide it fully
- it’s mounted on a plane with an atrocious flight model and inability to defend itself
- the PGM 2000 can literally engage from the same range and is fire and forget meaning you dont need to stick around
the Brimstone is worse than most top munitions found at 12.3, it’s “saving grace” is that you get 9 of them. But guess what in the time it takes to use 5 brimstones, a GR7 could’ve fired off all 4 mavericks, returned to the heli pad, landed, re-armed, and he’s already back to the battlefield (yes we actually tested this btw)

you mean the other munitions that can be fired from outside of most sam ranges and track by themselves, are faster and have a better range? just because the thing has a gimmick it can do doesn’t make it a great weapon when compared to AGM65s or KH38s (which btw the laser guided KH38 can do the exact same thing so another reason for them to remove the MT if balance is their concern)

I completely agree with you. Lets just hope that when it gets added to the game its not as bad as it is in the devserver.
A british addition and gaijin? na this thing will be bugged and missing flight performance and features for the next 6 months

Well adding the grom 1 how it was in dev, but nerfing the brimstone and what not is probably why they decided to not add it.
Tbh not a bad thing, but then what does this mean, they would rather avoid adding contemporary weapon systems than actually make one of the minor nations equipment valid?
The brimstone missile in real life is a hell of a thing, in game its just another agm65 essentially, which isnt bad at all, but why add it in the first place.
even so their answers still ignore the fact that the KH38MT is more broken then these brimstones will ever be if they are stuck with only SAL, they should remove the KH38MT and leave only the KH38ML

the KH38 when it can cover 20km faster than the Brimstone can cover 16km

its worse its just a Hellfire
these weapons cant be compared
Grom-1 was removed for… well it’s either for the sake of Sim or Air RB because in GRB its a non factor.
Brimstones were nuked for the “sake” of GRB

So you want Ho-229 removed from the game for being “fake”?
How can they not be compared ? If grom is going to ruin arb and sim you can bet your ass it would have turned the grb upside down.
