To be honest, KH38 is the only thing that makes ussr plane tree worth grinding.
Removing it is not an option.
Your words, not mine. Kh38 should never been added in the first place, simply way too powerful and no AA can fight it except the pantsir, which is in the same nation the Kh38’s are so it wont face each other, ever. Very fair.
Yet the only option for other countries, that would be able to reliably destroy pantsirs with same level of ez as kh38 does - was mutilated into oblivion, made into a complete fake weaponry.
There’s two ways of resolving this topic.
1)They keep being silent - hence creating a precedent for every other country to demand ANY weaponry that at least had 1 mockup.
2)They come forward and prove that 38MT exists and then we can start talking about how wrong it’s targeting works.
I don’t see a third option, really.
I’m just amazed by how selective Gaijin can be in their standards.
Yes, the missile should be removed immediately, it’s unbelievable how it could have been added on such loose grounds in the first place given the incredible impact such a weapon has on the meta.
But why does Gaijin rely on pylons to assign the correct number of missiles for russian aircraft but for the Eurofighter they just use the standard loadout shown on images and leave it like that
well you just said that they use the pylons on russian aircraft to assign the correct number of missiles, which is good. But there are multiple threads on the Eurofighter using the same pylons all over and some secondary sources stating that these pylons can carry amraams. Yet Gaijin keeps insisting on using only the standard of 6 amraams + fuel tanks. That seems a bit like a double standard
ok so maybe i misunderstood your first comment. Just for clarification: do they add missiles to russian loadouts by getting an image of every single pylon and assign them or do they specify the type of pylon and then assign the missiles to all pylons of that type?
yeah my question was if you know if they do indeed check every individual pylon for the type of missile or if they just add them for the type of pylon in a “if one can all can” type of way
I have asked for my links to be reviewed, and several cannot be used because they mention a current conflict… others a tiny bit sketchy but not the worst, and the last were confidential… so yup, Smin is going to check em out.
But in any case they all mention KH-38M coming into production in 2012, and the MT, or MTE, being used.
Lastly, you did start this topic, what did you expect? People will have extreme discourse about it, because it’s a good CAS weapon, pair it with Russia’s first thermal pod on a good fighter, and bam, it’s OP even though for years others had thermals and the ability to nuke people from space.
links/images of current conflict arent explicitly banned, iirc they just cant show people in any way
you saying a source mentioning current conflicts cant be used just seems completely fake
why dont you ask the mod that you sent that to, to confirm that such sources exist; without doing that the consensus is that you are lying about having sources
