In-game, we have the GB 500, which should actually be called “TG 500/LT-2” It only has laser guidance, but there’s a second generation, the GB500, which the JH-7A is capable of firing. The GB500 has the same warhead as the GB250 in-game. The GB500 should have IOG and GNSS and should be implemented in-game.
I’m not sure I agree with that; I always found the airframe to be very competitive. Air RB I would routinely outperform Mig-29’s and F-16’s were a toss up for the first 2 turns. Both air RB and ground RB I felt it was more limited in performance by not having its complete set of armaments. I think the best way to remedy this would be a JH-7A2 with the Pl-12 and other higher end armaments.
I believe you must have overcome your struggles, but in simulation, the story changes. That’s why I confirmed the classification in what I know, that is, in air simulation mode.
The negative responses are a very hard blow. There are images, documents, photos… all that’s missing is to call the actual aircraft engineer to confirm that it exists.
Help me out here, Gaijin, I’ve never asked you for anything.
Do any of you guys have screenshot from dev server with PL-5EII modification placement on JH-7A? They will add them as III tier modification or mixed old missile?
Yes, even the YJ-81K has the same stats as the ASM-1. It’s even possible we won’t have access to the YJ-83 on the dev server because the 83s are just 81s with better radar (K) and TV (KH) (if they gave us both versions of the YJ-83 like the ASM-1/2) and a greater range, developers might be too lazy to add the 83 to the dev server for just 50km of extra range and they’ll give it to us directly in the update.
But I still hope they’ll correct the YJ-81’s stats, which are supposed to have a 165 kg warhead, according to some sources. YJ-81 is a reverse-engineered missile of the Exocet, it is quite possible that the YJ-81 does not use only simple TNT but a mixture like that found on the GB 1000 a simple hypothesis
YJ-81K :
5.81 length
solid rocket motor propulsion for the entire flight
40 km range
YJ-83K :
6.38 length
A rocket booster for launch, and a turbojet sustainer for cruising
180 km range
I could be wrong; the information is difficult to understand regarding the different versions of these missiles. Perhaps the booster engine is reserved only for the YJ-83, which is launched from ships, and the YJ-83K only has a turbojet engine since it launches from the air. If you have any information on this, please feel free to correct me
I just saw that, hmmm, the explosive charge seems too weak
From what I know, Chinese agents had access to Exocet in 1983 when Iraq ordered it. Exocet has a 165 kg warhead with 5-10 kg detonators included, plus the type of explosive that multiplies the power of the charge
In WarT, the PBXN-3 has a multiplier of 1.28 (on the internet I found a multiplier of 1.6, which would increase the TNT equivalent of ASM-1 from 90.24 to 112.8). Therefore, if I take the YJ-81 warhead minus the 20 kg detonator, we arrive at a charge of 155 kg x 1.28 = 198.4 TNT equivalent to destroy a ship, which seems more logical to me
