So you just said, Sure you can have a GPS unguidable rocket, but we get Terrain matching to my target and then Lock and track missiles.
Bro basically compared a rocket that goes to a GPS location to a tomahawk cruise missile. they arent the same.
Now I’m curious how far a brimstone can fly BRB. oh the brimstone has 16.875 mile range, so you are asking for a terrain matching lock on after launch 17 mile missile… got it seems accurate to me.
If Su-34 gets Grom 1s. Typhoon and Rafale should get storm Shadow.
Those are not in the files yet
What is with you guys and not getting the idea of a GPS guided weapon.
We went from this guy asking for a terrain matching self-locking fire and forget brimstone, to you asking for a literal cruise missile that has terrain matching self locking fire and forget.
why do you believe that if the brimstone doesn’t have it, you would get it on a cruise missile?
And?
If the soviet get a missile capable of destroying a base cross map, then so should everyone else. It would only be fair. As it stands in GRB, no one has anything equal to KH-38 or the Pantsir.
The least we can have is an ultra long range GPS guided weapon
I’m all for it once they are in the files, however it’s not the case like the grom-1 which could be added tomorrow if they wish so
The thing I find funny about base bombing in su-34
you can have 3 base bombing loadouts:
incendiary+regular guarantees a 4.5 (115K base damage) bases + 4 AAMs
Grom-2 which guarantees 2 bases + 4 AAMs (you can take more bombs for another 1.5 bases btw in mid-pylons)
Grom-1 if it got added, guarantees 1 base + 4 AAMs (you can take 6 Fab-500 for another 1.5 bases btw in mid-pylons)
Stats looking great ?
Now let’s look at the plane itself, the plane is the heaviest top tier jet and is slower than every jet at top tier.
Meaning if you try and use option one, teammates (F15E can take out 3 bases) are far faster than you and can reach those bases before you and in ASB, you are far more likely to die than do anything meaningful
What about option 2 (Grom-2), you go up high, fly to 5000m or 8000m, wait to get within 25km or 31km of the bases, and drop 3 and 3 on each base (next update you get 1 more on center pylon), not counting the enemy Fox-3s coming your way, especially Fakour-90 which can reach you in record time, now you dropped your bombs, you either do 2 things, die and get 2k RP or 4k RP and go next match, or go defensive and try to get kills with your subpar airframe and missiles, ASB try gaining altitude and you will know why Sim is bluefor biased since Fox-3 update.
What about option 3 if it existed, you go 3000m, fire at 40km, get only 1 base, and try fighting or die and get 1.2k RP or 2.4k RP, ASB, yep you can fire safely, return land and get maximum SL and RP because you took off, destroyed a base and landed. The entire reason gaijin removed them
GRB tho, is just weird, whether you dropped Grom 1 or 2, those players staying in place, won’t suddenly start moving for one or another
A storm shadow in game wouldnt be used on bases, it would just be an OP anti tank missile with a 1000lb warhead
And there is a reason they were removed. Likely won’t be added back until everyone else gets equal or they figure out a way of not making them totally broken OP in air modes
But doesn’t the glide bombs present the same issue as the grom-1?
They do, I can climb up to the same place where you’d shoot off the grom-1 and it would still hit, only difference is that they hit quicker.
No. Glide bombs (like the grom-2) require being dropped at either alt and/or much closer to the target to strike a base.
Grom 1s you could run min fuel, take off, hard climb, target a base using CCRP cross map and fire. You could farm base kills or damage the enemy airfield in sim, with absolute impunity.
It would have destroyed top tier SIM economy especially and the only counter would have been to spawn camp all airfields in sim and stop the su34s from even taking off
Oh real? Kh-69 then right?
Spear-3s to give typhoons an AGM equal to KH-38?
don’t forget tomahawks! because storm shadows tomahawks and kh-69s definitely need to be in game right?
You don’t have to fly much high tho lol, it’s just a little bit, same results in the end.
do you know what a spear3 is?
I’m all for it
Good luck finding a ground vehicle or aircraft that can use them asides a ship
