While I’m glad the developers continue to add new Chinese vehicles, I’m disappointed in their treatment of Chinese equipment.
Every recent implementation of modern PLA vehicles has been gutted (VT4/VT5/ZTZ99A).
They destroyed the CS/SA-5 and refuse to accept many reports on it or lower the BR. No APFSDS, APDS, DL or accurate missile characteristics.
Now they are giving us new helicopters that are not equipped with modern Chinese AGM ammo (like the CM502) so those helicopters will not be competitive for CAS which China 12.0 desperately lacks.

Is CM-502KG not given due to balance? As the Z-10ME-02’s main weapon is the CM-502KG, as displayed in Zhuhai 2024
Or is it yet planned to be added?

let me guess - the squadron heli will have ty-90 as a tier 4 modification

i’m pretty sure it’s because it has no information on it and maybe also to prevent classified leaks.
better give it it’s actual weapons and not this copy paste

Bro, you are not unique in this regard.
Every modern vehicle added is gimped in some way or another.

Hey. No, not at this time. They are not planned anytime soon. They have ranges up to 25km as well as being Fire and Forget and LOAL.

ok. Then the AGM-114L is planned, right? 8km range. Fnf. LOAL. A perfect platform for testing the CM502KGs
As we have already said, we don’t plan F&F weaponry with LOAL for the time being.

Just add agm114L without Loal mode simple

Without LOAL? I mean you could just implement it with basic fnf. Would still be better than getting smaked every single match with no chance of doing a lot for your team

Why not just add them without the LOAL capability? i dont see the issue in that. Gaijin added the PARS a while back without the FNF capability and said it would come later down the line, which it did. Just add the cm502 without LOAL and add it later on down the line.? if 25km range is too much just artifically nerf it then lol. AKD10s are some of the worst heli atgms… only saving grace is when it actually hits the vehicle but the problem is getting to that point is suicide.

Those renders are so sexy
let’s talk about kh38mt.The game only has 13km rendering models. Is the range useful? Is the locking distance of the moving target enough?why not delete LOAL like brimstone.just ir missle

wow… so they add a new helicopter that is basically the same heli as before just with DIRCM…
- additional armor is worthless as it won’t prevent a 95Ya6, or a VT-1 from ripping off the tail
- increased ammo (of only 50 (!) additional rounds) is worthless since the aweful rate of fire won’t get you ever in the situation that you run out of ammo
- a different exhaust is worthless as IR missiles are rare at that BR and if you encounter one, the platform that launches it will aproach with mach +1, so the distance it can’t lock won’t matter anyways
- radars on helicopters are more of a liability than an advantage, they give away you general location, they don’t lock reliable on targets and the ground mode is useless as the battlefield is cluttered with wrecks at the point in the game where you would typically spawn in a heli making it just a distraction
- more engine power sounds nice and of course I can’t argue against that… but… man, if you got used to the Z-19… That thing moves, it’s insane.
the DIRCM is probably the only thing that makes this helicopter a consideration to take out. As those AKD-10s are so slow - especially when they new AA systems are added - you simply can’t stay out of cover long enough to wait for the missile to reach a target, unless the DIRCM can somewhat help with that.
So… that being said, there’s one question left: Why is the standard Z-10 not foldered with another heli? With the Z-10ME added the normal Z-10 is nothing but a 400.000RP and 1.080.000SL barrier as there’s literally no reason to take it over the ME. Especially since there’s no line-up at 11.7. And even if it gets lowered to 11.3 there’s the imo better Z-19 (the maneuverability of that thing is wild and more than makes up for the lack of a gun and the -4km of range compared to the AKD-10 - and I will die on this hill).

Oh, maybe Kh38, AASM and AGM130 who’s range greater than 25 km is already in game now? isn’t it?
brimstone also got LOAL but it can be equept in game as a SAL missile.
then why shouldn’t we got a CM-502 without LOAL but only got IR seeker?
