The Kh-38MT may not actually exist

Super sonic bomber that has multiple agms vs a sub sonic attacker with a similar bomb load doesnt seem fair why not compare it to the other sub sonic attacker that has similar AGMs and Bombs as well as A2A?

like it seems you dont want to because then its a far fairer comparison

Why not ?
SM3 is actually higher in BR than Gr4 so comparing those two should be perfectly fine. Even as is, Gr4 is pretty close to the SM3 when you look at the whole package, so without MTs the former would easily be a better pick.

4x 65Ds vs 4x 38MLs is a tough fight, as you trade missile speed for ease of use and lower exposure time.

4x 9Ms handily beat 2x R-73s, especially in GRB that has no missile markers and on such an awful subsonic buses.

@Smin1080p_WT Are the developers planning on giving a statement on this at some point?

air rb is whomever fires the first missile usually wins so comparing them is padantic, and 4 agm65gs vs 4 kh38ml is only a tough choice when you forget one is mach 2.2 with 22mil range plus 152kg of explosive and the other is mach 1 with 12 miles range and 50kg of explosive, and before you say anything about exposure time, you should be firing the ml before you acquire a target to utilize it correctly same with laser guided bombs. the kh38mt isn’t needed and it isn’t real so it should be removed same as the Panther 2 was.

I dont think the developers that added the Kh-38 (regardless of its basis in reality) and refused to make any statements or changes even after months of it proving to be the most overpowered weapon in the game, give a damn about any of this…

Why do people even interact with Motorola anyway? Let me remind you guys of this post:

Don’t fall for ragebait.

Yeah you’re right
It just annoying that Russian main like him come here defending his skill less fake missile.

But how else are the soviets meant to deal with a Pantsir with only KH-29…

Wait, hang on a second…

apparently not no evidence

I mean cmon

Japan - a country that has almost completely nothing left to be added other than F35 and F2A

This exception can be made for japan and its reasonable from balance pov

But for russia? They dont anything they already have too much

NVM KH29TD would still be the best CAS missile when KH38MT is removed.

You don’t have any refutations.

I wasn’t talking about ARB.
9M is simply much better than R-73 for GRB on such type of a plane.

With IR missiles you just find four targets, shoot and get out. That can be done much faster, which indeed lowers the time spent and let me tell you, those subsonics don’t really have any time to waste at that BR.

29TD is outranged by 10.3 CAS.

@bertgame
You making an exception is based on a personal opinion which is obviously subjective. It’s actually funny seeing people doing the same thing they apparently don’t like about Gaijin.

@141_allen
Not even close.

so no proof?

Japan has quite a bit of stuff to be added thats currently not in the game, both from modern/coldwar/ww2 era’s

F-16AJ exists only in a brochure which heavily resembles the YF-16A, which is not the one we have ingame

Which one? Which one has standoff capability against modern SPAA, even if its just barely? Don’t even mention mavericks.

It is faster than AASM, so arguably better. Also more explosive mass.

it they add F-2A instead of F-16AJ Russian main will going cry about it as well maybe more than AJ.

They wouldn’t now, they’ve got their own ‘toy’ with ESA radar, be it PESA. Adding it with MiG29 is unfair though.
