The Kh-38MT may not actually exist

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

heres a more relivent plot

both launched at 5km altitude 500km/h speed

primary axis are distance over time with added time to hit indication

which doesn’t matter because nobody launches at 5km, assuming there is competent SPAA in the opposing team.

If its tanks only and free reign in the skies you might as well compare your KH38 to a dumb 2000kg bomb

10-15ish km is usually far more representative of how it goes at top tier

well yes but actually no
things like adats missile cant outkill the aircraft that is launching the 38mt and manuvering
most of the time the 38mt kills me before my 146A can even reach within 2km of the aircraft yet

Tracking range of 38 and mavs is depending on conditions somewhere betten 12 and 8 km…so.

bro you dont post stall launch these missiles…

So it looks like at 10kms you hit just about double exactly in difference.

tracking a 65D is easier than tracking a 38MT with the ADATS
and given the ADATS garbage irst lock its pain
i usually lock 65D better over Brim or 38MT tho

10km+ for mt is a bit tricky for its seeker ingame iirc

ok, how does that change what i said ?

from playing the ADATS M113 if an Su30 or Su34 launches at 8km i typically kill them before they can get out of range again and thats with a 10km rnage sam not the ITO or flkpanzer that have 12km

not alot really im just saying what i know

just over double

and the KH38MT has IOG to guide from 20km so dont even buddy

Yes, point track, which you can easily avoid getting killed by, by not beeing a bot.

the thing is that if the thang see me im just dead
or i run away behind cover but my teamates die
