Yes, thank you for proving us right by showing that they explicitly don’t have any mentions of the Kh-38MTE anymore. The current implementation (Kh-29 zoom levels and 3rd gen seeker) is completely fake and made up by Gaijin. What little we know about it from the Zhughai air show tells us that the IR seeker is complete garbage, it’s on par with a 1980s Maverick, if not worse. Lock range would be limited to a few kilometers at best.

Gaijin’s take on the missile is completely fake and fabricated out of thin air anyway, it did exist on paper as an export weapon, but nobody bought it and there is almost no data on it. This thing, if it existed in any commercial capacity, would’ve been launched from stand-off range, guided with GNSS or INS and then lock a target on its own at the terminal phase, but the lock range would be extremely limited, no way this was designed to hit small moving target like tanks, the seeker (which is 1980s level trash from T-80s agava sights) was more likely designed to lock and hit a small ship or a factory.
Therefore, the lock range in game would be more akin to 5 to 8 km lock range (well within the reach of SACLOS SPAA), in ideal situations. And 8 km would be pushing it.

So they shouldn’t be in the game.
Doesn’t make them Swedish though.

Gaijin has already responded that they will not be adding this mechanic (in response to a question about targeting the X-59)
And what stops them from one: reducing the thermal quality to 1st gen thermal, and second: reducing the lock range? The seeker would see nothing past 5km. It would still be a deadly missile, the laser guided version is still extremely deadly and can be launched like a cruise missile with GNSS.
The X-38MT will be 1st generation, and other missiles will become 0 st generation?
why would they be lol
Also very funny that thats the only part youre picking out from that comment

You know the seeker resolution would be complete trash, right? Gaijin thinks they would’ve put TGP levels thermals and sights on a one way trip missile? Russia can’t even manufacture a decent pod for their planes, it took them decades to develop one, and they would be expending resources to put them on missiles? What?
The airshow in China revealed how poor the sensitivity and quality of the seeker would’ve been, and rightfully so since it only needs to lock a target at close range.

I wonder how they solved the problem with IR seekerhead overheating at mach 2 xddd
Seekret Soviet engineering magic comrade :)
Check the site with russian language selected
You want to know what the actual reason for these winrates is ?
Here you go:
None of these premium/squadron vehicle warriors have a lineup.

We still need a completely seperate BR or selectable game mode to remove ALL premium players in rank 8 vehicles, or at least ensure they have other high tier tech tree vehicles in the lineup to participate
Frankly I’m sick of these matchmakers, it’s putting me off my favourite vehicles
The best thing is, that these idiots sometimes put in a plane next to their 1 tank, so they get matched up to 13.0.
Truely amazing.

You do realize that the T80 is the most popular prem at 12.0?
Even the TT leopard players seems to have gotten worse, or the good players have all left.
Some of these players almost have negative situational awareness, and that is coming from someone with the attention span of a goldfish that does like 3 different things while playing WT.
And how many T-80-UE were on the opposite side? Show the whole picture please.
its the wrong one hang on.
