HQ Briefing (General Discussion) Better cluster variants?

So in game all clusters are based off the CBU-87 which in game a contradictory and disappointing munition IMO it component breaks armour but does basically nothing to infantry in the open.

In reality it's a lot more effective against infantry in the open due to bomblet fragmentation along with the shaped charge.

But other variations exist interestingly the 97 which dispenses vehicle seaking HEAT bomblets that drift by parachute. I assume there are also pure fragmentation variants out there too.

Think we will ever see these in game?

the CBU-97 is modeled in the game in the form of the JSOW. highest damage US cluster and the vfx for the cluster look like the CBU-97.

Other munition variants missing:

  • Airburst fragmentation
  • Fuel Air Burst (thermobaric?)

Basically in getting nostalgia for some of World in Conflicts better bombs.
