Russian getting a borderline ground rb breaking A2G weapon with questionable existence for a 2010+ weapon that would never pass the standards for a community bug report while also being miles better than what everyone else has, is bias.

Good riddance.
No one ruled out removal of 38MT in a decade or so.

xDDD russia’s turn should come as well
Case of 122s perfectly showcased that.
It went under the radar while everyone was moaning about BVM.
Both have the same track range.

Is it not 18km when the rest are 8-12?
No, all get the same seeker that can reliably lock vehicles at around 13km.

And now the weapon is chronically balanced because SPAA is more powerful.

Gaijin always releases new stuff with new capabilities not fairly distributed among the trees so one country just gets a better toy until the others catch up (SLM, Pantsir, F14 etc. However whats different is that none of the Top capabilities of other tech tress were made up. The sources for the KH would be rejected in every community bug report so why did they add it especially without any feedback after the 8000+ reply thread closed. And for the Soyuz they had any possibiliy to release it in a balanced state since every metric of it is paper anyway but they deliberately chose not to.
So for me the true russian bias rn is not ERA or autoloaders but the standard by which things are added. No other tech tree gets the courtesy of having paper stuff be their top of the line
Awesome so they balanced a broken CAS situation (which did not need to happen) by adding a broken SPAA situation
Something being OP should be the main problem, not if it’s real or not.
That thread of around 7950 spam posts has been made months after the missile was added to the game.
Why should top of the line be different than mid tiers or something like that ? Paper is paper.
Seems like you’re finding argument just to keep your narrative going.
Japan had F-16AJ as their top of the line jet for years now, despite it being paper.
We are getting close to the point were we wont have any public info for much of what is going to be added I guess.
KH38MT is weird for sure though, the missile itself is real as we have proof/info on the laser guided versions, and they certainly have the capability to put an IR seeker on it, but from that thread it seemed like they might have scrapped/delayed whatever the IR version since its impossible to find photos of it being used or even official accounts etc.
Im sure the forums will be really fun when we start seeing more contemporary stuff being added, we are pretty much there.

The SPAA is not broken because the SPAA does not counter GPS guided munitions.
Granted, it does not need to because GPS guided launches are going to be less accurate, but CAS-SPAA is currently balanced at the top end.
Mockup was made in 2017 while in 2024 it was yet again offered and showcased in a brochure.
6-7 years looks like a lot of time to still promote something scrapped.

Something thats real but OP is bad implementation and needs to be fixed by adding peers. Something thats made up and OP is arbitrary. Its not a “this machine was just very good and we forgot to add a competitor” situation but a “we deliberately made this in a way so its better than everything else” situation. Mid tier is different, because A) its usually a gap filler B) Theyre usually old af. C) theyre not the best at what they do in the entire game
@Sternlos True the public sources will be a lot less in the future but Gaijin needs to be transparent about that. You cant on one hand add things on flimsy excuses and on the other hand smash away every bug report, because its not written by John Lockheed himself
The misbalance is not CAS vs SPAA the misbalance is SPAA vs SPAA. The SLM to every other SPAA is worse than what the Pantsir was to every SPAA before the update
Everything that’s OP should be fixed by adding peers.
They pretty much slapped 65D seeker on the 38ML and called it a day. Most of the missile’s characteristics are proven real.
F-16AJ was a gap filler and is top of the line. Things being old or not makes no difference at all and you could argue that new stuff should get more leniency as plenty of stuff might still be classified.
They could be the best at what they do in their BR range, which is all it matters.
But I guess Japan getting fictional top of the line vehicle is fine, it isn’t under RU so it gets a free pass.

Russia getting a made up missile thats stronger than its real life counterpart while Italy,germany and Britain get a fantasy missile thats weaker than in real life is still bias.
The difference is that the F16 AJ is still a gap filler, is not op and its not miles better than what everyone else has
Sure new stuff should have and needs to get more leniency, because sources are harder to get but then Gaijin needs to be fair and allow every nation more lax sources

You can’t balance missiles on their own, as vehicles they’re attached to get the BR number, so looking at it that way is grossly wrong.
Something being OP changes from person to person, I already told you that.
Without it, Japan would have much worse CAS options than the others, just like RU without 38s.
Excusing something clearly fake just because of your personal feelings while going full out on the other thing is pretty much biased.

If you add a missile with limited (or increased) capabilites compared to real life youre balancing the missile not the vehicle its attached to. The Implementation is the balancing factor.
Something being OP does not change from person to person if its objectively better than its counterparts.
Im very much allowed to be biased, im not a game developer that needs a balanced game
P.S. remove the F16AJ for all i care just stop pretending that it has the same significance in game as the KH38MT
The missile is real, its the seeker thats in contention. I get im being a bit of a nerd but I at least think the distinction is important otherwise you make it sound like the entire thing is fantasy and thats not really fair.
