The Kh-38MT may not actually exist

To bring this back on topic.

Did KH-38MT exist?

It looks like exclusively a mock up at this time.

If Gaijin considers the KH-38ML + MT mockup enough for a weapons addition, can we get others of the similar nature, such as ASRAAM + HEAT Warhead A2G version mockup to get the Typhoon added?

If Gaijin doesnt, but decided that an IR Seeker version of the KH-38 was required for “balance” then it raises major questions about what they consider is “balanced”

Why a KH-38 and not a KH-29 to get the IR seeker?
Why wasnt IOG removed from the KH-38MT to make it more balanced?

This thread has reprucusions well beyond whether or not KH-38MT ever existed and what is needed now, in the absence of evidence beyond a shadow of a doubt that KH-38MT was actually test fired is a statement from Gaijin about what comes next.

If it remains, then we need, in clear terms, what are the mininum requirements for any weapon to be added to the game and when we can expect to see KH-38MT level weapons added to the other 8 nations, only AASM really comes close.

Even then. Brimstone bleeds speed fast as its a short burn. KH-38 has a long sustainer motor, so probably maintains that speed for most of its flight. Especially with the ranges its used most often in WT

i was going off by statcard as currently i dont have time nor will to go check the missile datamine.

and i especially dont have time nor will to go out of my way to counter a point of a person that says that brimstones are just as capable if not more so than KHs.

Theres clear malicious intent on his side, and as such, only winning move is to not play his game.

it is? or are you mistaken it with kh-38mt?

it is. if you can see the target without any targeting pod to pair them with is another matter entirely.

Yeah, that is pure copium to think that a Brimstone is even close to a KH-38ML, let alone MT.

why cant we bring 6 agm-65g or 6 agm-65f?

what?

AGM-65Ds do reliably one shot. But due to their extremely poor zoom level both in regular and IR view, unless you have targeting pod, you have to get extremely close to discern whenever the thing you want to fire at is burning wreck or live tank.

that doesnt seems reliable

well the ability to oneshot target isnt tied to the missile ability to acquire target.

Why would you be able to?

i went into the page, and shows the missile in the page correct, but dosent seem like a functional missile, since its either a mockup or not working, im not even gonna include the rendered one

Spoiler


that one is functional, the video showing it moving around and shooting kinda proves its functional altough its more specific since it could easily be a leoaprd 2 with stuff on top, stuff like KF-51 U its not functional, seriously dude dont be hypocrite and try not to call me out for “not reading” or “not seeing” stuff when you cant even read my posts
