There was a lot of people after the MK2 was added asking for the MKK
Why is the MKM getting KH38s then??
Gaijin doesn’t care
cus its the same as su30sm ? same radar and f2 will struggle against all the new fox3 larpers , thats the reason why they are adding su30 in the first place
for your pleasure
Well its about a decade older, the aircraft were all designed, built and delivered before the KH38 was even designed, and Malaysia never ordered or tested them?
When challenged, gaijin state that it doesn’t matter if the nation used KH38 or not, the documentation they used to add it said that all Su’30MK- series aircraft can launch KH38.
Gaijin also likes to add aircraft to fill holes, the 13.3 early flanker role is already filled pretty well by J-11A, while the top tier CAS is still very limited, meaning it should be used to fill that, not the 13.3 A-A role

it will get everything su30mk2 gets kh29Ts etc. it is not top tier material. look at the br of su34 u dont want its br with N001V the only reason why its there is because of kh38s.
its clear gaijin doesnt care about wether a country does or doesnt operate a weapon sadly
A-A performance in ground literally doesn’t matter when you are firing 6 of the best AGMs in game, you still have R-77/73 and HMS, so dealing wjth air threats is entirely dependent on player, people aren’t BVRing in ground
but holy sht gaijin is kinda dumb istead of adding the aircraft with its realistic loadouts (su35) they added sht variants of the flanker n gave it su35’s loadouts to compensate for its sht performance - this only led to more fake loadouts.
Evidently, as I said earlier, gaijin just doesn’t care and will add fictional weapons wherever they want.
It’s only a problem when I actually ask for it to be added to a nation which is terrible for jet CAS at top tier

they will probably save kh38s for the chinese su35.
Will likely be DOA by then, and would also mean we would have to wait more for something that could logically come tomorrow
how is the su35 DOA ? it will probably be better than j15/16 with how the game works atm (no ecm/minor difference between pesa/aesa radar)
The missile not the aircraft 😐
Russia’s best CAS missile for a while was the KH-29TE, when China finally got it with J-11B, it was long DOA since better AGMs had been added
u think kh38s will be doa in 3 months ? wtf even if they add better missiles for nato it will be on par better than kh38s but that wont make it doa lol. u can argue that they will make sams better but we already have modern sams for pretty much every tt do u think kh38s are already doa lol ?
Problem is that there are 2 very different versions of MK airframes with completely different avionics and FCS. MKI, MKA, MKM and SM, and another one is MKK, MK2 and M2
The sources gaijin use don’t specify mate
is MK2 more modern than MKK ? if so then i dont think they will give it kh38s.
I am glad that they don’t specify, but then where is KH-38 for Su-27SM? It has same avionics as MK2 and M2

Su-30MK2, MKK and MKM were all designed, built and delivered long before the KH-38 was designed or exported.
No operators of any of those 3 have ever tested, procured or operated KH-38 and lack the necessary FCS to launch it.
However, Gaijin believes the Su-30MKM can fire it through ‘technical compatability’ because sources about KH38 state it can be fired by Su-30MK- series aircraft, not specifying which (as far as gaijin’s concerned) is grounds for addition to all Su-30s besides MK2 because giving premiums the best A-G munition in game isn’t sensible.
To wrap this up, I am not arguing that it’s possible or realistic irl, simply using Gaijin’s logic and grounds for addition for the MKM, to say that the MKK (which could fill the massive top tier CAS deficiency for China) should also receive the missile upon addition.
