What was the reason lol
I’ll have to find it for you
The developer is not completely sure of the existence. Mentioning it in more than 10 sources is not enough for him.
They want a specific matrix model and other details. However, this information cannot be obtained.

but there is real photos with khod or mercury
It could be a mockup. More importantly, multiple sources say that there were thermal imaging tests in 1991. There’s no way to test a mockup

Photo Su-25TK. Aircraft number: 10 blue. Serial number: 25508101014. MAKS-1993.
Suspended is the very “strange container” which is the Mercury

And here’s a Su-25T. License plate number: 10 blue. Serial number: 25508601014. “MosAeroShow-92”.
MTPS container “Khod”, which is labeled as such in all sources.

In addition to the above: The T8M-2 on which the Mercury was suspended for testing is one of the first two Su-25Ts. It can be easily identified by the painted cockpit to make the airplane look like a regular UB. This was only on the 1st and 2nd prototype (PHOTO 1).
Further it is the same with “Mercury” in 1989 in Brovary. Records from these tests are available on the Internet. Those very hits on tanks through the Shkval and shooting down Tu-16 with “Vikhr”. (PHOTO 2)
How can this container be a thermal imager “Khod”, if in 1989 the Hod was still being developed, its first tests were in 1991? Moreover, the T8M-2 was lost in 1990 (a year before the Khod tests) during the tests? And most importantly: in 1990, the Su-25T was adopted into service together with the Mercury system. Nothing else could have been tested on it. (PHOTO 3)

At the same time, a T8TM-1 (converted from the very first T8M-1) was spotted by the “Khod” cotnainer. It can be seen by the number. The tests were in 1991. This is confirmed by several sources.

since SM3 might be coming is any of those thermal pods possible for it?
The Su-25SM3’s Thermals are built in
For some reason hard evidence isn’t enough for them at times. Sometimes they even mark the evidence as “invalid” without giving a reason as to why.
Dealing with bugs as the player is hard, shouldn’t have to be that way.

Built in SOLT-25 with thermals but pointing angles are small.
Check out these very obvious and simple reports I made.
Yet gaijin goes banana mode and refuses my reports.
Some people in the reporting section have some personal issues I think, and it’s affecting their work, or they don’t even properly read.
I am very mad that they refuse to add thermal pod for Su-25T/39, despite the research. They are unusable in night maps (the night vision pod is literally garbage) and in fog.

I believe that they refuse to add a thermal imager to the SU-39 and SU-25T because of the SU-25SM3 coming this patch. There has been thorough information sent to Gaijin but this clearly isn’t enough, for god sake even the model for the Khod is in-game but Gaijin refuses to add it.
And check out this very long report I made, discussing a large issue with the LOSAT and a smaller side suggestion regarding the FLIR it had in real life, suggesting a potential solution to fixing the main problem.
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/lEBi4mCninyg
Unbeknownst to me, the FLIR was already mentioned in another report, and they made that clear, which is fine. However, they didn’t even acknowledge the main problem: That the missiles are not flying correctly, and they are near unusable in their current state. The FLIR was more of a side comment, and a suggestion to help fix the main problem.
All those hours of research and effort, to not even get the main issue acknowledged.
Even with a thorough report and video evidence, its still not enough.
Lol.

I still have my losat coupon, guess I’ll sell it when it’s worth something
That’s definitely the most optimal option right now. It is not an enjoyable vehicle at all right now.
A challenging vehicle is good, as long as its a potentially fun challenge. This is not fun, this is just pain.
So tragic, I was really excited to see one of my favorite military projects get added, only for it to be completely botched on arrival :(

You should copy your post over to the international forum as a suggestion, if you need help translating it or whatever just let me know.
Just remembered he can’t login to our forum…
If he by chance sees this, your list of weapons is missing the Gunpods “SPPU - 22-2” and if you want to be extra the Elint pod “L-081 Fantasmagoria”.
I can come in here. I don’t know if I want to copy the topic… Maybe someday.
I didn’t mention cannons, unguided bombs and unguided rockets as they are not a difference between su-25tm and su-25t.
Phantasmagoria isn’t mentioned either, as it’s not used on those planes.
Guidance is done through the l-150 pastel.
I have a primary source on the su-25t where phantasmagoria is not present
