The Kh-38MT may not actually exist

But also the seeker is another problem if it works on moving targets?

there is no information about the seeker on the web, only patents

to make a claim like this you should back it up by showing a picture of Kh-38MT on an AKU-58 pylon

Well, you mention it on this thread, it’s only fair to correct you on the same channel 🤷‍♂️

38ML doesn’t require a video channel, because it doesn’t have any type of camera in it’s seeker.

that is not a Kh-38MT…

and even seems to be a mockup? because the Kh-38MLE has a very distinctive seeker that is missing here

it is the anti radiation version

The Kh-38MT has exactly the same design as the Kh-38ML

so Kh-38MT is laser guided?

This is a mock-up of a family, not a specific rocket.

no the ML

Facepalm

but if it has the exactly same design its seeker would be identical hence being laser guided

With that logic, shouldnt the R-27ET be possible to be used on every station that can take the R-27ER? For example on the Flanker family

its designation indicates its supposed to be a Kh-38MLE

No, the R-27T is limited by its head, as well as by the gas dynamic stability of the aircraft engine. The Kh-38 family does not have such a problem.

Not to detract, but Kh-29 uses the same pylon. The issues stems from what kind of thermal seeker the supposed 38MT carries and if it has on board coolants if it’s a cooled seeker
