The Kh-38MT may not actually exist

I dunno. This thread receives like 300+ messages each day which is interesting to say the least.

My five cents is that 38ML is more than enough, though. Just get rid of the MT. It being a non-functional prototype, if that is the case, would make it whole lot easier.

Except because it has MLs it wont go down and the max it would go down is to 11.7 (if the MLs were removed) so it still faces the same threats with a degraded loadout.

it probably doesnt exist in a finished form and definitely shouldnt be in game

its just finna take long time
printing takes 8 hours for half the missile(height limit) and then i have to trim and polish also have to print and polish the wings
the gyroscopic part id have to buy like a ball and put shiny in it and cut glass so its visible and it has to be yellow brown ish color and then mock up cable for it to be authentic
and also i have to paint or wrap because the surface isnt smooth by any means its rugged
its doable tho

We would need to find a post about it being cancelled, else whether its still being worked on or not in a classified state is still up in the air.

the problem is that you sound like this.

Here have a few pictures of the FCAAM missle, the succesor of the IRIS-T


In your own words, this is proof that the FCAAM exists and is real.
But fun fact, the FCAAM does not exist and is only in development, Those Models are specialy done to get people intrested and get people to invest.

This right now has as much legitimity then the KH-38MT

but they still advertise the others, and there is no evidence it is being used in any current conflicts

i mean just making the head would be sufficient for this argument lmao but bro having a 1:1 missile as an ornament would be badass

Yeah. It is not like any of the Kh-38 aircraft lack the ability to designate ML. Hell, they gave 30SM the T220.

majorly the L one, which doesnt have the delicate IIR seekers

wouldnt bet on that, the SU-34 and SU25m3 might go down further since they dont have a targeting pod.
and the cameras are gimped.

SU-30 wont be affected of course

There are a lot of examples of Kh38 being used, unfortunatly its not often specified what version.

a literal trophy remind me that i won an arguement online

i mean what tech leak? its largely acknowledged even by russians themself they lack behind in the thermals area

and? there is still no evidence of use and if anything there is evidence that russian manufacturing or thermals cant keep up with demand without installing very high end systems in one time use missiles

and without creating a national security concern through sekret dokuments

everyone has their own perks and downs, maybe they had upper hands in some specific areas when it comes to IIR seekers?

doubt
ill see how it goes

Still wouldnt drop past 11.7 so effectively the same place for ground.

yes but the images are easily identifiable as KH-38ML due to the grid infront of the seeker
