And you know for a fact that bug is easily fixable within a reasonable time frame. Just as a reminder, Gaijin took their sweet time to fix much more impactful bugs.

That patch of grass could be edited in.
It also doesn’t explain why they would do something like that as after all, the mockup has been proven to be built.
Photoshopping that instead of just mounting it on a plane makes no sense, especially as the whole body of the missile is the same as of 38ML which is definitely real, so mounting mechanism is already built and functional.
The mere mention of 750m/s (M2.2) is enough to see they are talking about maximums, as it’s pretty obvious that speed being the average doesn’t make sense. But anyways, that’s not the issue.
Also seeing half a dozen people liking the Wikipedia source is also a worrying part.
I feel nasty by even calling that a source, as it’s nothing more than an anecdote written without anything to back it up, so it has the same weight to it as the random forumer stating KH-29 can reach speeds up to M4.5 or something.
The communication intent is often to distract from the content of a topic, The goal may also be to question the justification for criticism and the legitimacy, integrity, and fairness of the critic, which can take on the character of discrediting the criticism, which may or may not be justified.
Where in this text did I accuse you of anything ?
This is common sense that Strela-10M2 is not equal or inferior to Stinger missile it is better and any one can agree on that why in similar situation with AIM-9M vs Igla inferior missile wins in your logic ?
Yeah I wouldn’t pursue the image being faked, as the photos aren’t original as the brightening effect alters them but makes the text much more readable and fixes issues with lighting/reflectivity of the pages.
With all the evidence presented I’m confident in the weapon existing in some form now, and at the very least there is now enough evidence for it to be in game.
He talks about the maximum speed of 2.2 Mach = ~750 m/s, which is indicated in the characteristics of the rocket in the game. But he did not even read “average speed” and you liked this post even without looking at the brochure.
I see you trying to find a little photoshop in this picture, but you couldn’t see “average speed” in the brochure.
You said that you had two possibilities right now, either it’s PS’d or it’s an inert/training missile, totally ignoring the possibility it might be actually a live missile.
Seeker’s thermals and zoom might be adjusted if Gaijin thinks it’s getting unbalanced.
Until then I believe it’s the best option to start spawning real counters to them, aka planes of your own.
AAs are woefully weak, no wonder we’re getting a batch of new ones.
Heres a thought…
Remove the 38 anyway and take the 25MT and MTP.
Its literally a russian AGM65.
And you can have more aircraft that can carry it.
Plus its more balanced and we dont need to introduce more and more unbalanced weapons
