We thought F2 was gonna be it lol. Nope, 13.7 cause no HMD which is so called ‘realistic’ but God does Gaijin care?
While south african and swiden Jas-39 got AGM-65G, germany and italy typhoon got brimstone. It’s kind of GAIJIN joke
The problem is just that China has the same type or equivalent of weapons as the Americans and Europeans but BUT… gaijin does not implement them so yes it gives an impression in game that China does not have many A-G weapons but it is wrong, China has better A-G ammunition than Russia to begin with

Wouldn’t they have datalink like AKD-10? in that case the seeker range doesn’t matter since it would re-lock in terminal guidance.
China doesn’t have equivalents to US Maverick or British Brimstone as they operate on different military doctrine. J-10A is a high value jet and is designed to fight potential adversaries like India, Japan, USA, Korea, ROC. All of which are nations with advanced anti-aircraft weapons. They cannot risk loosing a J-10 from low-speed low-altitude attacks like that of the USA in Iraq when they were fighting technologically inferior stuff. As such China’s weapons focus on long range stand-off attacks. That’s why it can only use large and long range missiles such as CM-802AKG and CM-400AKG. Both of which don’t make sense to have in War Thunder. For CAS, China would rather use their extensive inventory of UAVs, which unfortunately doesn’t work great in War Thunder.
Personally, I think CM-502 is not needed because it will already be a very strong helicopter with the DIRCM. The range and performance is much better than Spike and PARS 3, it would not be fair.
Not like they can’t nerf it anyways.
C704 might be added as well as IIR versions of LS6.
bro stop your prejudice against China.
GB250 got the same modification as AASM. which means they can use IR/GPS/SAL seeker and having a rocket booster.and it can be load on J-10’s tripple pylon.
And C-700 series missiles are just kind of chinese maverick. And it always showing with JH-7,JF-17 and J-10.
For brimstone? I don’t think any robust airforce need something like that. none-IFF makes it useless against close melee. and when I need to do the air interdiction. why not use glide cluster to throw sensor-fused munition on enemy’s head?
Last, for SAMs. PLAAF and PLANAF also got sead teams loading YJ-91 sead missile to destory their radar and another jet loading guided bombs to destroy the launchers.It’s a total different missile comparing CAS. There’s no A or B choice.

I don’t know what part of my message made you think I’m prejudiced against China. I want AGMs to use in game, I was just explaining why the type of weapons China uses is different from western tech.

JF17 is a light fighter with a high angle of attack, but its engine production capacity is insufficient and its top speed is poor, making it unsuitable for BVR combat
and j11b has only 3 kh29t.It’s unfair
Well, when you spend 8 minutes to accelerate ma1.2, A simple 3/9 Maneuver will slower than ma0.8. also RD93 He’s a gas hog.那么，当你花8分钟加速ma1.2，一个简单的3/9机动将比ma0.8慢,RD93他是一个油猪。
I mean, Mi-28NM should have Kh-39 (LMUR) and you don’t see anyone making a huge deal about it.
Even if it’s about increasing the BR, the CM502 must not be missing from the China
That is probably because Russia already has various excellent CAS options at top tier. Plus, the Vikhrs are arguably the best AGMs mounted on helis that we have in-game. China, however, is lacking in fixed-wing CAS, as the best they have in terms of AGM carriers is the 3x Kh-29Ts on the J-11B. For Heli cas, the Z-10 is about on par with the Apache in A2G, so it is not very strong either.

Then you should ask gaijin for 114L, instead of complaining about pars3 and preventing other nation to get sth similar to 114L
I agree with it
China should get CM502 for its new heli; otherwise, it does not have much difference from the current Z-10
It does now, cause Gaijin just stripped normal Z10 from LWS and MAWS.
Yes. Currently, all the IR AGMs have the same baseline target locking range of 20km. And the player can only lock the target around 10km, depending on the size of the target and the weather conditions. So they can implement cm502kg in the same way.
Range is only a façade. If the introduction of this missile into Warthunder is to really disrupt the balance, it is actually its threat to other helicopters. At present, except for the USSR, no helicopter can accurately hit other helicopters at a distance of 8km.
