The Kh-38MT may not actually exist

thats an inverse claim which you gotta prove. not me.
we have no reason to think any markings would be applied and even if there would be, markings aint 3D like here

The circle boundaries are cut if you look.

Theres a section missing.

Even then,look at what would be the edge of where the seeker head joins, its missing part of the circle transitioning into a flat line across the entire photo vertically

It very much is.
You first claimed that the metallic ring extended way back to the mounting bracket.

Look, missile looks like a 38MT based on it’s shape and looks of the seeker. You focusing on the markings that might be created who knows when is funny.

Whataboutism or whataboutery (as in “what about …?”) is a pejorative for the strategy of responding to an accusation with a counter-accusation instead of a defense against the original accusation.

Clearly.

i didnt?
lmao when

i aint denying that it looks like a 38MT or MTE.
im questioning if the image is doctored which is most likely is

ELA reveals some damning editing fingerprints

imageimage

there are irregular ‘regular shapes’ (random squares) as well as areas of differing pixel densities which usually points towards an image of different resolution being overlaid onto another image.
this is the area on and around the seekerhead

the changes in brightness itself are proof of being doctored as per the ELA definition:

Everything is photoshopped if you believe hard enough.

objectively speaking. youre on the lower ground here and saying

isnt really helping your case nor even correct. an image either is or isnt doctored.
facts dont depend on belief

At this point in time there’s no reason to continue speaking to you, as it’s obvious you aren’t backing out from your personal beliefs, which is fine.

i could say the same to you and id be more logically sound as you clearly cannot object to the ELA i have provided

Judging by your picture, even the grass in the distance is tampered with.

That’s the sky lmao
And the outline is of the missile(s)
Not the grass

I find it funny to see your photoshop posts after you liked this post. You’ve seen a million photoshops but you haven’t seen “average speed” in the brochure.

No where near as unbalanced

Like the israeli chaparral? Which hsd its smokeless missiles “broken”(we all know it was intentional) and then was promptly downtiered?

id say u got a bad sense o humour lol

(context: hes questioning the 38MTs high top speed especially how it more or less remains so damn fast up till impact whereas the average speed listed in the brochure is lower which means that the missile should slow down a fair bit more)

i didnt look at the stats. only the image since thats kinda what this thread is trying to find. (proof of imaged Kh-38MTs)
