Nope, just the mockups

man… read again what i wrote…

If you make a random claim, you better have a source for that. If not, dont make it

He has been pretty consistent in communicating the lack of evidence for the existence of that missile. And he’s absolutely correct. We’ve investigated using 2 languages. Multiple “researchers” even gaslit the lovers of everything ru/war related into sweeping every nook and cranny. But result stayed the same.
This missile is fake.
Ooor if it’s actually not, which is highly unlikely, the methods/sources used for adding it to the game are at the very least unjust.

…with you i wont even bother… So, have a nice evening.

Hell yea brother☕☕☕

Indeed the lack of proof of testing the missile, yes.

You cant be sure, i say this because in the secret (ish) world of development… Also, in a way gaijin doesnt have to prove anything to anyone. Not defending gaijin.

Agreed, they can change the seeker to TV and zoom levels and mantain it in the game, imo.

What? I defend gayjin but i dont

Or remove it from the game. Problem solved. If its SOOO important then leave ML atleast

that would be a terrible change because TV guided AGMS are much cheaper to spawn also right now it feels like TV guided weapons are less susceptible to losing lock if the target drives near a wreck

and it would do nothing to address the capability gap between the very slower missiles like maverick and the mach 2+ kh38

the simplest good solution would be replace kh38MT with the experimental but much more evidence of existence kh25 with a thermal seeker

Hmmm… Thats actually very interesting, can you send whatever info you have on it?

I dont have much on hand but commonly referred to as Kh-25MPT

I assume he means this

There is also an IR guided variant

By the looks of it, they could be a added weapon replacing the 38MT, but problem is that I don’t think Su-30s and other Russian advanced aircraft carry Kh-25’s anymore

sorry it might be Kh-25MTP I cant remember off the top of my head

giving planes capability to carry old weapons is much less egregious as giving them fictional weapons that they also might not have been able to use if they existed due to seeker coolant

Why should fictional things be egregious in a game like WT that has multiple fake things ?

With all the Secrecy around the AIM-260 we can find more documentation of that being tested than we can on the 38MT. I honestly don’t believe this missile made it pass marketing.

For the looks of it, the Kh-29D also has an IR seeker.
