because there is at least something regarding the MT, there may not be much more than mockups and brochures but that’s a LOT more than nothing except very rare mentions with no pictures and an abandonned project.
As for the seeker performance, this is simply a copy paste of all IR F&F seekers.
No nation is entitled to a capability. The brits don’t use IR FnF missiles on the ground but you dont’ see gaijin making up a weapon to fill that gap do you?
Furthermore, what is currently modelled is so far beyond its own marketing brocure it would make 1980’s pravda editors blush.
not my point, i’m saying that since gaijin wants to give the russian tree an IR AGM, then this is the least bad option. remember that before the 38MT arrived, the most potent missiles in the tree were the Kh-29TD which i’m pretty sure you’re aware are a lot less potent than something with an IR seeker.
is still kinetically superior to agm65 to an insane extent and is the best air to ground weapon for china, so why exactly does russia get special treatment to give them a fictional air to ground missile that vastly out preforms anything else in the game and breaks gaijins own rules about weapon additions
it’s not all about kinematics, the seeker is the limiting factor of the 29TD along with 2/3 of it’s carriers (at least in the ru tree) lacking TGP’s making the usage even worse.
yes that is not the only relevant factor but with its significantly better kinematics and warhead it already is contemporary to agm65d which has a better seeker but unreliable warhead and much higher chance to miss or be intercepted
i’m not gonna talk too much about the warheads as i’ve not had only good experiences with the warheads of the Kh-38Mx’s, as for the missing, i don’t have an aircraft with mavs so i’m not gonna talk 'bout that.
don’t get me wrong the TD is defenetly usable but it is often limited by the seeker and carriers.
as opposed to creating another grossly op weapon out of even thinner air? my point is that it could’ve been worse as the Kh-29D and Kh-25MTP are to my knowledge even less real.
because the unrealistic vaporware IR guided AGM traveling at mach 1.8/ mach 2 is so much better than the unrealistic vaporware IR guided AGM traveling at mach 2.2, i don’t see much of a difference…
move more, the warhead is huge, keep that in mind, and i did say move to cover, rocks, ditches etc do help a lot i know it’s not perfect, just saying it’s the current best there is against it
More ? This is FlaRakRad… I started moving moment I detected launch 18km away…
Maybe if it had is historic gearbox not that 5 speed bullsh1t…
Anyhow with GNSS KH38 spammer will just bomb from a safe distance those few places an a maps where SLM radar (and simmilar) vehicles (which should not be anywhere near the front line) could hide, and they will have good results with it.
