True, but this is not a law of nature or anything.
We are talking about a missile, which itself already exists and don’t know if the IR seeker on top if it exists.
It’s not alien tech nobody has available, it might very well exists, maybe not.
Yes, that was the point, you got it.
thats not an adequate comparison
Bro, i was telling him he is right without telling him he was right.
Don’t smartass me when you cant comprehend that.
The null state is non existence not the contrary
That doesn’t change the standard of evidence though. just because something feasibly can exist doesn’t mean that you can prove non-existence or that it becomes just as likely to exist or not exist. The default is still the same.
Highly recommend this book if you’re actually interested in the subject:
But this is on the edge of off topic so we can take this to direct messages if you want. :)

Yes, i already agreed to that.
I am just saying, it’s not some new unknown tech which has to be proven exists.
I also previously said if the 38MT was the right choice is questionable, but it sure doesn’t need to get removed now because the seeker of it may or may not exists.
But the seeker is the defining part and arguably the most difficult component to design and manufacture
And they have IR seekers for other missiles, which implies they are probably able to do it for this one as well.
So add the other missiles that you have info on instead
Yea whatever, but just removing 38MT is not the solution, because the ML is certainly not the replacement for it.
So you are saying you would be fine with its removal if replaced with something that has evidence and detailed specs?
Yes, if it’s not some dogwater missile, sure.
Arguing for manufacturing capabilities or availability to components doesn’t really further the discussion. Looking for evidence of the missiles test firing or any prototype testing is likely the only actually productive way forward, any other discussion will likely lead in circles.

My point was the KH-38 series does not support the T variants existence as the seeker is what makes it special

wouldn’t be the only nation with laser guided ordinance as the best option for its top cas aircraft
okay ?
Even if we had evidence of a seekers existence and its functionality it likely isn’t enough as to my knowledge the previous general threshold for implementation is functional complete prototype. (with some exceptions as usual i think)
Additionally, everyone here comparing capabilities to other things in the game also wont further things, the discussion is on the missiles existence and if current evidence should or shouldn’t be enough for implementation regardless of it’s effectiveness or lack thereof in game.

Kh-38ML is more than capable and can still outrange all SPAA in the game as of now. A suitable replacement for the Kh-38MT is the Kh-29TE that is proven to exist and performs well in the current meta.

Yes, if you fire it from that far out it’s in the air forever and you are a sitting duck for planes.
