Well then. The Meteor is compatible with the American F-35B, so is the ASRAAM on the F-16C… etc etc
Did you read the manual? It specifically says:
“Do not load LAU-88 with live AGM-65s next to a targeting pod.”
you’ll have to provide sources on that claim
The reason why they changed it because Lockheed did a test and it proved that the Sniper ATP can be mounted adjacent to the lau-88.
So like I said before for the third time, there is a double standard
Yes, I’ve ready many of the manuals.
That specifically is a suggestion to crew, not a hard restriction.
Thanks for proving that there are zero double standards.
Keep in mind, said weapons can be up for consideration but it’ll ultimately be a balancing factor whether the vehicle in question gets it, which is probably why we haven’t seen certain weapons on specific vehicles. (look at how many weapon reports are blocked or left in limbo on the bug reporting website because Gaijin devs are arbitrary on their interpretation of balance)
What’s likely happening is JAGMs are being given as a blanket to Indonesia, Netherlands, and Taiwan to give those nations a 10+km F&F ATGM for their helis. (Although I really question why the AH-64E was added to Taiwan now when the Chinese tree already has the Z-10ME and they just recently had controversy regarding their export tank).

And where does it say that it’s a suggestion?
Edit: Give me quote, screenshot or something so that I can verify your claim because right now I have a high suspicion you’re only speculating
Your post provided the quote…
“Do not” is a request to the crew.
Unless you’re going to claim your own post was wrong…
You also explicitly stated Gaijin was correct:
Ik that countries do upgrades to vehicle when they buy it but after the Chineese communities behaviour with the VT4, the apache they are getting should be no where near as good as the american
Why do you care? It’s not going to change the fact that the VT-4 will end up in the Japanese tree.
It’s not a request or a suggestion, It is an instruction or prohibition. I highly recommend you learn the differences between the three and know when to use them.
Nope, it’s to show that we don’t have manuals of export 64Es saying explicity saying that it can use JAGM-MRs. The document you’re referring to shows that it’s compatible nothing more, nothing less.
The real question should be is why is China receiving its second LDIRCM helicopter, when other nations still don’t have an equivalent? Is Gaijin really this far out of touch with the rest of the player base?
What are you talking about? France, Japan, and soon to be Britain are getting theirs…
@HondaCivici
Provide any documentation that proves AH-64Es are different from each other in fire control systems based on export status.
Also, I said in another thread. Gaijin set its precedence regarding platform using munitions vs operating nation actually purchasing said munition.
I forgot exactly what it was with the F18s, someone had told me but I forgot, but one of the operating nations in game didn’t buy certain munitions but Gaijin gave the plane the munition still because ‘the platform uses it’
Okay, let me put this in bold letters so you can understand better.
Why is China RECEIVING its SECOND LDIRCM helicopter before every nation remaining has received its FIRST ONE?
Other nations getting one ‘soon’ is not an excuse to give it another top tier helicopter with LDIRCM before every other nation has received one.
The precedent has not changed:
Manuals and documentation restricts.
Countries adding new weapons can overcome those manuals for added features [BOL pods on F-18C MLU2].
This has not changed.
Soviets removed features from export aircraft to make them weaker until Mig-29.
Finland explicitly told the manufacturer to not include air to ground fire control systems in their F-18C.
Also it’s not before, it’s at the same time as others are receiving.
Great Britain is not receiving its AH64E this update.
Germany is not receiving any equivalent this update.
Israel is not receiving an equivalent this update.
Italy is not receiving an equivalent this update.
Sweden is not receiving an equivalent this update.
So why should China receive its second one before these nations have received their first one?

Italy, Israel, Germany have F&F weapon systems currently.
LDIRCM is neat, but terrain following prevents the need for it to begin with.
We don’t know about Britain, so making conclusive claims is not going to be accurate.
China has F&F weapon systems currently, why does it need another top tier helicopter with LDIRCM protection?
Again, soon isn’t an excuse to give China a second top tier LDIRCM helicopter.
They should delay this addition until everyone else has received their first LDIRCM helicopter.
China should get its own equipment when possible, not a US copy-and-paste AH-64E.
Not only is it bad for the game’s health, but it also makes SIM a nightmare.
I don’t because if I did, I’d be in jail. No one knows what’s in the manual so me not proving a negative doesn’t make it a positive.
It is also common sense that a manual wouldn’t have weapon systems that haven’t been fully tested.
You’ll have to prove an arms export that states the order of JAGM-MRs. So far only the nerthlands can use the 179a (which is not the MR)
The burden of proof is on those that make the active claim.
The active claim is: “AH-64E is made different if exported.”
My claim has been status quo, a passive claim: “AH-64E has no difference between export and domestic production options in its weapon system.”
Boeing confirmed this by clearing JAGM use for AH-64Es as a whole.

Helicopters have IFF…
