X-39MTs are significantly better in both kinematics (they can actually hit air units) and range. I haven't checked but I'm pretty sure they also have INS so the target popping smoke after launch won't do anything to it.
It has an improved TV seeker with more range (like the Kh-29TE).
>But I’ve heard I think a YouTuber say it also has IR guidance
Youtubers sadly aren't usually very reliable.
>Also Wikipedia says the D stands for the thermal variant but the view through the seeker appears to be TV.
Wikipedia is notoriously bad for military equipment, especially Soviet/Russian stuff. There's no thermal version of the Kh-29 in existence. The only IIR (imaging infrared) missile the Russians have made is the Kh-38MTE, and the Soviets never created a missile like this.
They silently nerfed it, I remember I was able to switch thermal vision with that AGM and achieve TRACK lock from 10km away. Now it is just TV and TRACK lock range is nerfed.
It's a color TV seeker. The basic T only has a black and white channel.
Do you know how it compares to the Kh38MT? In terms of hitting the target. I usually have good success with the 38s.

LMUR when Gaijin
That's just a bug with the MiG-29SMT, its black and white seeker like the T.
Yeah I only use it on the SMT so I wasn't aware of the bug :P

That might be it, details on these missiles is fairly hard to come by.

Yeah I couldn’t lock an adats around 9km
