The Kh-38MT may not actually exist

bro it doesnt matter that the rectangle seems similar in color because the rest of the majority of the color abruptly changes at the seekerhead - missile body boundary

Ok ill have a look

I mean why are we even discussing this when the official exporter of the 38M family stated the max speed is M2.2. People omitting the word “average” more than once is either a very big coincidence or something else entirely.

@Armen_Lozone
I’ve seen your drawings and you clearly think the metallic part reaches all the way back to the “bump” that serves as a mounting bracket or something. Take a look at 38ML, you’ll see the metallic part ends way before that “bump”.

yes i know. it looks strange which is why i think its a promotional photoshop

could also be POV/perspective angle

It looks strange when compared to 38ML because it isn’t an 38ML.
The seeker on the ML also isn’t tilted down, unlike on the MT.

im not comparing it to a 38ml per se, im comparing the colors

perspective?
editing?

You might be seeing the reflection from the sun, which is why I told you told on the bottom half of the missile where impact of that is many times less.
You can see a clear change of color between the small ring and the rest of the missile at around that area.

Can’t really see what those pictures represent, better mark it on the original.

Markings on the missile ?

That missile looks like a 38MT and any other comparisons fell short.

Would a non functional missle have safety clamps to mount it to a wing?

theyre the side to the left and right of the color difference near the seeker section and warhead section

aircraft dont use clamps… 🫥
theyre usually pins and little explosive ejectors if not rails

Its a KH38 base. That means nothing.
The working KH38MT with the IR seeker being integrated and working is the important part.

The base KH38 having clamps doesnr matter

That also might be markings.
