down, i selected wrong square, also the missile can relock onto a target if you shoot beyond the 20 km and it aproaches to the 20 km mark as long as its not 500 m1a1 clickbaits deciding to pass nearby the enemy spawn
the lock on range is the same at 20km for both

yes like i said above, its the same for 20 km against actual targets, but like i’ve said you can use KH38MT to lock on ground and wait for an enemy to pass there and lock onto them, i do that against enemies that are hidding very often and it works pretty nice, not with KH38 dont missinterpret me but i dot it with other missiles that can lock on ground too
well anyways to avoid going off topic imma end it there, but if yall find any proof of existance tag me
This should not be possible, LOAL is to my knowledge currently not in the game.
He probably mean a bug where you lock on ground and lock getting switched from ground to moving target when it goes through it. I’m not sure though.
You proved their post correct.
Where do you see “13” in that screenshot?
Well, it’s “20” on paper, but in-practice it’s ~13km in testing.
Either way it’s the same for all of them cause all of them are copy-paste AGM-65D stats.

But how did he posting the paper value prove them correct?
Cause his post’s claim was they’re all the same range against tanks, not the ground.
They didn’t say in-practise, they said “capped” , as in; on paper and can never lock on longer ranges than that.

Gotcha
what it is for 65B
No, he’s correct. LOAL is in-game, its just in a limited manner.
This video does a decent job portraying the mechanic:

I don’t see any LOAL being shown in that video? at what timestamp does it happen?
Starting around the 2min mark, he gets a “point” lock. A point lock isnt a lock on a vehicle, its a lock on the ground at which point you can fire the missile.
The missile will fly towards that point lock until it finds a suitable target to track.
At 4:43 he gets a “track” lock, which is a vehicle track which can actually follow a moving target.
Its not super obvious in the video, cuz he’s not firing at moving targets in it, but he does explain it in the captions.
The Kh-38MT can do the same thing in-game.
Getting a point vs track lock in the pod view just means that the missile hasn’t been fired yet.
I can see no proof of LOAL in that video other than verbal claims (i don’t even think they say it in the captions?). It might be the case that there is some sort of LOAL in the game (by mistake or design doesn’t matter) but i have not yet seen it and the video doesn’t show it.
You can see it on the Penguin.
6:43, 7:49
Penguin has 2,5km seeker lock
No, thats not at all what it means.
As can be seen below, a POINT lock cannot follow a moving target (unless the moving target ends up within the seekers FoV when its within TRACK range)
A TRACK lock on the other hand can follow a moving target, because the seeker is already hooked on the vehicle, instead of looking for a target while in flight.
