AGM-114 vs AGM-65/ Kh-25: Damage is weird

Ok I just got off of 64 Kashan and I realized to my dismay that the AGM-65's need two hit to kill a tank. Which would be ok if the AGM-114 took at least that many. I just think its weird for a missile with a 8.2 kg warhead to be more powerful than a missile who's warhead is almost two times the total mass of the AGM-114. I just think that the damage of the Hellfire should be switched with the Maverick and AS-10. I'm pretty sure that a reactive armored tank would take about 2 hellfires to completely destroy anyways.

I agree that the effectivity compared to the weight is kinda strange. I guess this will be one of the things the dev's will look into when they overhaul the airplane system.

But as far as I know, a Hellfire can kill a even a tank with reactive armor, since one of the possible warheads for a hellfire is a tandem-shaped charged, specifically designed to counter reactive armor.


Oh,and the picture is great :razz: .

Is the spark the explosion, or is the circle the explosion circumference?
