Well, you mention it on this thread, it’s only fair to correct you on the same channel 🤷♂️
38ML doesn’t require a video channel, because it doesn’t have any type of camera in it’s seeker.
that is not a Kh-38MT…
and even seems to be a mockup? because the Kh-38MLE has a very distinctive seeker that is missing here

it is the anti radiation version
so Kh-38MT is laser guided?
This is a mock-up of a family, not a specific rocket.
no the ML
Facepalm
but if it has the exactly same design its seeker would be identical hence being laser guided
With that logic, shouldnt the R-27ET be possible to be used on every station that can take the R-27ER? For example on the Flanker family

its designation indicates its supposed to be a Kh-38MLE
No, the R-27T is limited by its head, as well as by the gas dynamic stability of the aircraft engine. The Kh-38 family does not have such a problem.
Not to detract, but Kh-29 uses the same pylon. The issues stems from what kind of thermal seeker the supposed 38MT carries and if it has on board coolants if it’s a cooled seeker
You compared it to other things that werent fully functionnal, sooooo you did say that

This is getting off topic. But the main thing with the IR R-27s is the pylon carries coolant tanks. So it uses a different pylon
I wasn’t talking specifically about the kh-38, I was saying that Gaijin doesn’t stop .
Wouldnt the KH-38MT, if it actually exists also need coolant for the seeker?
