KH38 can kill literally everything right now, even if you fire it at Jets it can hit with insane accuracy and due to level of explosives, but AGM65 would be eaten by the rigged Russian ERA.
I wasn’t even including APS. APS can intercept Mavs, Kh38 and even Hammers, this goes for the Black Knight as well iirc.
However even without the APS I have had games where my Mk.4 took 2-3 mavs and lived.

Lets see:
- USA: yes
- Germany: Yes
- USSR: Yes
- GB: Yes
- Japan: Yes
- China: Nope
- Italy: Yes
- France: Yes
- Sweden: Yes
- Israel: Yes
Turns out, neither of you are correct. And that is with counting Helicopters, if we don’t count them Germany also drops out Forgot the F-4F KWSII exists
it is valid?
yes
ERA eat mavs like crazy

That’s just because HEAT sucks compared to just raw explosives. I mean Kh-38 is close to like 600kg after all

152kg as of ingame
speed is different at different point of time, pretty sure agm65 can go supersonic when launched supersonic for a considerable amount of time
yes significantly faster but practically it wont be 2x more or even 2x faster

I mean the entire missile weight

So the at part near the end then.
At 15secs it is 2x faster at 10 secs it is even more. can’t really say with the 20 secs or more cause the mark ends after 15.
let’s see
- 0s same speed
- 2.5s : AGM-65 at 480m/s, KH38 at 580m/s (1.25x faster)
- 5s : AGM-65 at 450m/s, KH38 at 650m/s (1.4x faster)
- 7.5s : AGM-65 at 370m/s, KH38 at 740m/s (2x faster)
- 10s : AGM-65 at 330m/s, KH38 at 790m/s (2.4x faster)
- 12.5s : AGM-65 at 300 m/s, KH38 at 700m/s (2.33x faster)
- 15s : AGM-65 at 280m/s, KH38 at 620m/s (2.2x faster)
and it goes on and on, only the initial acceleration is where they share a “similar” speed
Even the statshark scenario is contradicting you, because the AGM-65 seems to reach its target after 35s, while KH38 finishes at 16s (less than half of 35, making it… at least twice as fast)

I just forgot a comma lol
It is insane to me to see someone post a image as evidence than gaslight the opposite of what it shows.
iirc the 65D has a booster time of like 3 seconds and reach it max speed in that 3 sec and relied on guidance
the 38MT has 2 seconds booster time and 8 seconds sustain burn
i am taking 10km launch range which itself is a huge range for agm65
for a 5km launch range, kh38 takes around 8 and agm65 takes around 12, which isnt a HUGE diff as mentioned
then thats fair enough

I was being general. But anyways, most nation have a form or IR weapons. I think Israel may have the most as a matter of fact.
nope F-4F ICE has the AGM-65G

no one is launching AGMs at 8km not at top tier, at that range a plane is dead to literally any SAM
