Idk actually as i sed the devs probably put theses numbers only as guess and place holders, other wise in this video it can clearly be seen in the second missile launch that the missile booster have a brun time of greater than 15 seconds my theory is that the booster have a brun time of about 20 seconds, since light from the flame can be seen all the way till impact.

And in the first two seconds you can wonderfully see the red flame :D
I would guess if you made a bug report for the booster burn time with this video as a source it would get rejected because “you can’t see the weapon system in the dark, so no way to know what it shows.”.
woah can you do bug report with this
Don’t worry i have another one with 18-20 seconds burn time
Plus there is a bug report about the flame color bc it’s very iconic for the SLM

And yee probably bug reports with only videos will probably get rejected unfortunately, but i don’t fully know.

Not quite as a video should be as good as a primary source actually?
I could but idk what results we will get both videos in here clearly shows ghe SLM having a booster brun time if about 20 seconds but idk if that’s enough to make a bug report.

You will be surprised of what excuses they will make to rejecte bug reports TwT.

Oof, alright…
Btw the first video you can see it’s clearly an SLM
I can use it but as i sed idk how will things go.
Could be worth a try. I could also guess that they don’t accept reports with data from a “special” active conflict.
I might do it later today using these two videos.
Yee this could be a problem too but idk how could someone argue against such evidence, i might tag a mode here and ask him before doing a report
I could remember that they have a very “pecular” stance on this, so yes, better ask a mod before.
I just asked unfortunately it can’t be used, and i quote “No as the video can be sped up or slowed down. If it was a manufacturer video maybe. But not war footage sorry.”
So yee it’s a very reasonable and valid point, since these videos can be tampered with.

The vids are pretty clear cut. You can cleary see when the booster turns off. Primary source.
You surely won’t get anything better before the manuals / specs get declassified in like 50 years.
And Gayjin really wanted that classified document. Like which one country will provide full detail how their latest military instruments work with current world situation? What can they do right now just to make it close enough to IRL ability with any resource that we have currently. (Meanwhile at same time Gayjin know how blueprint vehicle works in the game)

But they literally do loft twice in those screenshots xd
what do you even call this behavior? This was against a Mi-8AMTSh.
it also has LDIRCM
This is what I call peak SLM performance 😁
All 3 missiles missed against a Su-30 flying 2000 meters altitude, had this been BUK or SAMP-T they would’ve already been erased from the sky. You literally can just hang out in the sky and notch this thing because the radar is so bad at course correcting.

kh31 has been around for decades and it has not had any real success despite adopting countries having been involved conflicts involving air defense.
and besides agm88e and agm88g are plain better even if we just take the kh31 figures at face value
