If they’re launched the way I do, I launch one missile per target, so you just need to figure out which one is likely headed towards you first.
Like they say in the airlines, secure your mask before helping others secure theirs…

My quick search says Brimstone II goes Mach 1.3 like Brimstone I. Kh-38 goes Mach 2.2.
Aside from radar guidance (which I think in real life may be spottier than we realize), Kh-38 is basically just as good on guidance. Brimstone has roughly a 7kg warhead, Kh-38 can go as high as 250kg. Just seem like two different missiles entirely.
Brimstone vs Vikhrs seems like a better comparison imo.
this don’t matter, in game it usually won’t reached this speed, you will need a distance/time chart. for example, kh-38 fired from 12km is 1.4 Mach in average, Mav is 0.9 Mach

Brimstone in their current implementation are more like Vikhrs but they really shouldnt have been.
Brimsone 2s have a range of about 60km, which if we cap to 20km for War Thunder, gives them far far greater speed at short distances than Brimstone 1s. If it takes 60 seconds for a Brimstone 1 to travel 14km, then Brimstone 2 should only take around 30 seconds, if that. Which puts it closer to KH-38 impact times than an AGM-65.
Also Brimstone 2 can be used at “high off-boresight angles” meaning on something like the GR4, it wouldnt have to fly towrads the target first. instead it can fire and the missile will turn towards the target.
Why the GR4 came with SAL only Brimstone 1s and not SAL only Brimstone 2s is beyond me, would have made the fight a lot fairer at top tier
It’s about as real as the F-14J, they tried but it was wayyyy to expensive
