Is it likely that EVENTUALLY longer range “cruise missile” type weaponry (specifically grom-1, D-30SN UMPB, Jdam-er, UMPK series bombs, etc) ONE DAY (not anytime soon) come to war thunder?
Im sure we are gonna get GTA10 before it.
I think we’ll get them soon but people for a while will pull the “Not ready yet”. Gaijoob had Grom-1 loaded on the Su-34 in Devserver but it was not added due to it being “Overpowered” (which tbf it somewhat was)
Should be soon, I don’t really understand what the fuss is about with people saying there are OP. They are GNSS guided, it takes a fat minute for any of these munitions to reach their targets from 20+km and honestly, if you’re still sat in the same spot when they hit, that is on you…
no it wasnt , the grom was slow asf, the minute it reaches a base a teammate could have already taken out two bases before the groms reached there, the groms arent op other then the fact they made it safe for su34 players to bomb bases withought having the issue of leaving their bases,also the groms are completely useless in ground arb since to their limktes gnss guidance
we just got umpk this update, and hopefully soon GBU-53 for US aircraft
Theres a reason it’s in quotes. The somewhat was referring to range for bombing but they did still take forever, hence why it’s only somewhat and not just “It was”
i belive gaijin gonna add it back soon
I hope they do, not much a fan of the Su-34 but I want to see the game advance a bit more nonetheless
in counterbalance to the grom they could add agm154 for usa
thats not the same class of missile though
it doesn’t have to be counterbalance as much similar weaponry. a CM for a CM, GB for GB, IRCCM for IRCCM, ARH for ARH, so on and so on (Ofc in similar spec/class)
their both standoff platforms and gaijin could add the agm-154 variant which uses gps/gnss only for balance , grom and the gnss agm154 would act nearly identical
i guess, i think F-15E can carry them on wing, tested only though.
would rather have the 28x GBU-53 though

gbu53 is way to op, if you want gbu53 then israel could receive the spice 250ER which is a mini cruise missile /bomb with IIR/TV guidance (f15I can carry 28),the brimstones could get buffed to their irl capabilities aswell
for GBU-53 they would omit the ARH guidance
EFT can carry 18 powered, supersonic brimstones so it shouldnt be an issue to add 28 glide bombs to the F-15E STRIKE eagle
add spice 250ER for israel if u want ur op gbu53s (only fair)
no, absolutely not, regular spice 250 is GBU-53 counterpart, ER has a jet, its powered vs unpowered flight
spice 250ER unlike spice 250 is a mini turbojet powered bomb , which enhances the spice 250ER range to surpass 200km ,( its bassicaly a IIR/TV guided cruise missile lol)
