The plane hardly matters. They spawn their Suchoi, press the hotkey for the target pod and spacebar KH-38’s down into the the ground map. Sometimes you can see them bailing out after they shot all 6 to just spawn the next KH-38 jet. So much for the importance of the Kh-38 carrier plane.
Theoretically you could mount 6x KH-38 + pod on a Tu-4 and it would work (you already spawn in Strike range, so how does the plane even matter).
Yeah and balancing top tier weapons with reasoning that it should be equal with subtier weapons is fucking insane
honestly I imagine that they’re well aware of the topic and just can’t speak on it either due to being told not to or just simply they haven’t anything to add/ say.
It’s a bit of an awkward situation cause if they agree then everyone will likely cause issues that they’ve acknowledged it being not real and not doing anything about it or we just get a response about how it’s known and they’ll think about it.
You clearly supporting the idea that Kh-38MT should be replaced with Kh-29TD as top tier AG missile
yeah? because 38mt isnt real and its way way off balance
Russian dont develop any IR guided missiles, most of them relies on TV guidances unlike NATO which does develop and utilize IR guidance missiles
38mt isnt even realistic, 25x zoom and gen 3 thermal on a disposable battery while they cant even put a thermal targeting pod on their aircraft and its not like 29TD is unusable, they need to rework how TV guided munnitions locks things anyway
expert from war thunder development team
is such a funny line lmao
Well, they had to take on an authoritative voice for the article. And it’s not as if their math or the implementation is wrong in some way.
It’s just that the assertion underpinning the basic assumption of the entire position taken by the article; that the Igla and Stinger are functionally similar is flawed from the outset.
“Russia cant do it, so the US cant do it too”
It’s not quite that reductive, but in essence yes.
and could have probably been better served by using documentation for the FIM-43, in place of the Igla, but then further questions would have been raised, as they should have.
they probably go
“man this is taking too long to research on, just put an ending sentences”
i bet they got interested in it and gave up half way lol
I can agree that Kh-38MT have more capabilities than other A2G weapon systems but you were arguing that top tier A2G for soviet tech tree should be balanced by subtier weapon such as AGM-65B is nonsense.
Mi-28N(M), Ka-52, Su-25SM3, Mi-8AMTSh-VN, Mi-35 what is this then ?
so, almost 6k posts later, is it real or not? or is it like always a bunch of speculation from people who dont know what theyre talking about?
It’s simple, no one’s actually found any evidence that it does exist. Hence, we’re all just here talking about how they’re ignoring this post. How wholesome.
so lets say they remove that missile, are you GRB players going to moan about the hammer on the rafale next?
why? Hammer is real
unlike KH-38MT that fake
I take it you didnt read OPs original Post.
The hammer is just as much under scrutiny amd shouldnt work. Recent sources prove they are not supposed for mobile targets.
Hell the IR seeker only activates 2kms before impact.
Would need to be changed to work like the penguin missle and everything above like what was it 50kmh cant be hit anymore or if you loved a certain distance since it was fired
Probably, but HAMMER is real and its not nearly as broken as the Kh38, since, you know, it performs worse -_-
French
idk, every clip ive seen shows the rafale absolutely butchering helpless tanks, so performing worse is kind of irrelevant if it still stomps anything it looks at, no?
honestly respect to you guys for even touching GRB, that gamemode is rotten from top to bottom.
I hope someone can make a quick recap of what we know so far on the KH-38MT since its been nearly a month
