The Kh-38MT may not actually exist

When I remember correctly: As the 2A7V with spall liners was introduced, there also appeared threats where players complained its too effective. It really didn’t take long and the first tweakes appeared. Nerfs, reload buff for others to balance this out up to the point where spall liners are hardly effective anymore. Just to level the playing field.

Now compare this to the KH38MT issue. It absolutely wrecks top tier ground RB. A double spawn of KH-38 capable Su’s nuke whole teams off the map without any realistic counter… Complaints and threats appear, one even with 6000 replies. There are youtube complaints and even general MMO platforms are discussing this imbalance… and what acutally happens? Since months? Nothing. Not even a DEV statement to at least acknowledge that there is something of an issue.

I know most of the G staff have an affiliation to Russia and the Soviet Union. But still this is a game with worldwide player base. It somehow needs to be balanced and standards should be at least similar for every nation. Its time to act and to remove this 6x spacebar nonsense. Its just too op. Be it real or not…its too op. Its harming your game and your reputation.

80% is helicopters and one is a strike aircraft that is basically an A-10 but faster
Why not Su-30SM, Su-34?

Grom-1 would be nice, but I don’t see them really removing the Kh-38MT anyway so doesn’t matter.

And ? Like seriously it is not thermal targeting systems just because they are in a wrong aircraft ?

The Su-34 does not have a thermal imager, and the Su-30SM with such complaints will simply lose it

What are you talking about lmao.

We have no idea how the Ozelot that was supposed to use this missile would have looked like, it was supposed to be completely different than the Stinger one, using a VLS system instead of a turreted launcher, but there is zero visual info out there afaik.

There’s ofc a brochure for everything :) But unlike the 38MT, it will never make its way ingame. Even if the missile is alot more real, there are pics of test launches etc. While the 38MT remains elusive, most likely not existing irl, it was indeed added to War Thunder. Unthinkable for other systems.

Well… It is, just slightly different and is suppose to take flight in 2027 iirc.

The better example would be:

237902-14744339d65996f33537af46f0d4783e

ASRAAMs with a HEAT-warhead meant for Ground attack called the “Typhoon”. Was a competitor to the Brimstone

If KH-38MTs can be added because KH-38ML is real and a mock-up exists of the KH-38MT. Then these should also be possible because ASRAAMs exist and these are a mock-up of a ASRAAM variant

Although I understand bringing other examples to the board make sure to stay within topic… Otherwise this thread will end up becoming more of a wishlisting topic for stuff that hasn’t yet come to the game.

That’s tempest not replica

How’s it going? This mockup is still as unreal as it was, right?

The mock-up? All it proves is the idea existed. Also your Expo messages for that picture all state that the mock-up there was for laser guidance so figure that one out.

Grom-1 is an Cruise Missile…
Aka, not an (Replacement) for an Air to ground missile…
You want Grom-1? Sure, gib Taurus and Storm Shadow too…

no of course it isnt a replacement they are 2 different weapon categories, russia doesnt NEED a replacement for the MT as it out preforms every other AGM by a large margin in my time playing at 12.0 recently ive seen next to no EFT, Rafales or F15Es but I have seen a ton of Su30SMs

the thing they arent mentioning is that 40-50 second timer is launched from 20km, brimstones get that kinda launch at 10

How do you know its a mock up? and the image I send does not state its laser guidance
