I was always under the impression that I have to switch the laser to "standby" for enabling the laser designation mode (as opposed to Vikhr guidance mode) at the front panel (bottom left) to get a Kh-25ML onto a target.

 

Accidentally I missed that step ... but the missile still hit the target exactly where I wanted it to hit. So, basically, it seems it doesn't matter in which mode the laser is set - except for the laser cool-down time which still behaves differently for each mode.

 

Is this a (new) bug or am I missing something here?

If you are the Designator/Shooter (autonomus fire) it work in the same way as the Vikhr, the laser enter in Designation/Guidance mode as soon the missile is fired.

 

If you are the Designator for another shooter (Indirect Fire) so you need to move the switch. This way the laser is in guidance mode from the beginning.

 

The Kh-25ML is back to work as in the past???

Allright, so I was wrong with my assumption. Thanks for clarifying that.

 

And no, the Kh-25ML is not yet fixed. It still drops like a rock when fired and barely goes 6-7 km.
