The Kh-38MT may not actually exist

looking at this image

I can see both of those arcs at the same time, if the edge of the “lens” was solid like 99.9% of lenses than that would be impossible, you wouldnt be able to see the edge of the circuit board, hence im reasonably sure the “lens” is created by the reflection of the guard rail visible in front of it in other images

You two clearly missed the point, there is 2 tanks for a single tank, therefore one is fake.

You’re just assuming that its the Edge of the Circuit board. And don’t realize how reflective those thing are.

and your just assuming thats a lens, and dont realize how reflective those things are

IR seeker heads are set up like this most the time, the clear covering doesnt create sifficient reflections to screw with the camera just like the gap between a lens and sensor doesnt on any other kind of camera system.

its also a single use thing so the additional cost of making it look pretty is a fools errand

excuse the caption of the gif, this is literally the only video i know of that shows a gimbal mouted ir seeker moving

both existed at some point, so neither is fake

It’s 1 in the same. The T95 is either fake because it’s really a T28, or the T28 is fake because it’s now a T95…

It would make more sense to say the T95 is fake, but I’d rather they remove the T28 since it’s premium.

More than one T29 exists there are 105mm examples that still exist to this day in museums.

I believe its a reflection caused by the exterior tinted glass cover, the only way that being reflective would effect the sensor is by reducing input so it is likely designed to be reflective to certain wavelengths as a filter to protect the sensor

I believe Spookston. Thanks.

Wait, so is F-110A fake, bc after the fighter designation unification thing it became the F-4C?

ITS THE SAME VEHICLE BUT REDESIGNATED

BOTH ARE REAL CONFIGURATIONS PLEASE RESEARCH BEFORE SPOUTING RUBBISH

and that’s the point, they would make a 100% real seeker, not a fake one with nothing in front, so if the seeker is real…and the missile (propellant + explosive charge) is also real, doesn’t this prove that the kh38mt missile is real?

No, it doesn’t.

You don’t just shove parts together and hope they work. Systems integration is a long and complex process. For all we know, those photos show the seeker from a different family of missile which has been made to fit into that body. That in no way shape or form means it’s completed development or is ready for testing.

So far, noone has shown any evidence of the weapon actually being produced or test fired. By gaijin’s own standards it should be removed.

So if I take a X-38 a rename it a KH-38MT, then MTT, then MTTT or 388MT does that mean there is now 5 missiles? No.

bro is pulling at straws rn
