There definitly hasnt, what are you talking about
No proof has yet been provided that the Kh-38MT ever actually existed in any form of functional capacity (testing or otherwise).
The furthest ppl who believe the Kh-38MT to have actually existed have gotten is reposting old brochures (which id already provided in the original post) and proving that there was another newer mockup of the missile displayed back in 2017.
So, to this point, the “proof” provided for its existence are old brochures that were likely simply promotional in purpose and seeking funding for the program, and that there have been 2-3 mockups known to be in existence instead of 1-2…

It’s less real than Pirate on a German Typhoon, yet there’s no Pirate on a german Typhoon.
My point is that I’m kinda annoyed by this so-called “pulling an owl on a globe”.
If you want to deny reports left and right and approve everything you like - you gotta have standarts for that. If you don’t - just say it, openly.
“Uh, actually it doesn’t matter, we just don’t like it, that’s why” - would be valid enough.
It’s a cat-and-mouse game, but mouse is a 4 dimensional creature and a cat has his eyeballs carved out.
Well then it will be obvious bias. Besides, it will be possible to ask gaijin why they don’t introduce paper projects for other countries? For the USA there are many projects that remained only on paper, there are simply imbalanced missiles there.

There was none actually. Or am I missing something?

Im honestly curious what evidence the devs have for the Kh-38MT or their stance on this subject quite frankly.

I know and I can tell, that might help with general comprehension of the situation around ru equipment.
Care to listen?
Saying something along the lines of russian bias aint helpful to the discussion.
I know the devs likely dont care and we arent gonna get anyrhing back from them, but itd be cool if we did for once. Smin has already been pinged, as has a dev, and neither answered so either they didnt see or were told not to interact with this thread, either way I dont intend to ping them more for the time being.

No, it’s not about the bias
Honestly, I’m more interested in the guidance methods of Kh-38MT and IR Hammer being coded for the game than either being removed.
Both would be a “nerf” to the capabilities.
Again, as per;
US Designed Electro Optical seekers should not be able to lock onto the ground.
Here is Developers answer
Seekers like these can track optically contrast objects. As it is not possible to implement true contrast edge tracking in the game we allow seekers to lock on any point on the ground. So any point on the ground is considered contrast object.
Therefore, this issue is considered resolved
In effect they are, It’s Contrast seekers like the Maverick and GBU-15 that aren’t modeled properly as they can erroneously lock onto zero contrast targets like the ground, sure something could be done where after going terminal the IR-TERCOM missiles only update the Predicted Point of Impact once, but with such large warheads it’s unlikely that such a change would be significant due to the time between the last update and how far a prospective target could move in comparison to the blast radius.
though it could be interesting to see how smoke would interact which such a mechanic.

Has PIRATE? check
Is an German EF? Check

And there has been evidence posted that the missile does exist, tho full production may not have been determined
Stop being disingenuous. The only evidence is a mockup, with zero evidence of it ever being tested or produced beyond the mockup.
By gaijins own standards, the weapon should be removed from the game.
