how do you say this when r27er matches its range charts to a tee, even slightly underperforming in speed

Check H=10 km, Launch Distance = 25km
Shooter: 1100km/h
Target: 1100km/h
I’m pretty sure it’s the second variant, albeit I’m not aerodynamics engineer
Or maybe it’s because you can’t just read a single coefficient in the datamine and draw conclusions about how a missile performs because there are many other variables that determine that and you don’t know the relation between them. If you have actual evidence of a missile performing poorly in actual games compared to real life characteristics make a bug report about it. Whining over numbers in the datamine and crying bias is peak misunderstanding of how the game works and simple cope.

Don’t forget Stingers that have 13G max because devs “don’t believe it can perform better than Igla” :)
It’s not cope, selective realism is a fact and it only benefits russian equipment interestingly enough

I wouldn’t trust you over them tbh seeing how you completely failed to understand how missiles work in war thunder and with possibly absolute certainty in real life either. But keep coping, maybe it will make you better at the game some day!

So… Just because missiles work how they work in game changes somehow, that western equipment doesn’t work as it should because if Russia can’t make it work - no one can. Aight
Edit
Explain to me then why is it that Sparrows decide to go for whatever despite being launched in ideal conditions but R-27 do not have that problem :)

Hey, Russia can get missiles that likely don’t even exist, for Russia they can set the lofting integer to almost 4 while other missiles can’t get that, they can entirely change how stuff works so it performs incredibly well, and so on and on.
I really want to see the AIM-120 improved, but I also don’t want to be associated with the mouth breathers who cry about Russian bias all day.

Unfortunately, if you want some buffs for the U.S nowdays, you’ll always be associated with them, because it’s hard to comprehend that one nation has a lot of players, each with different ideas in mind, skill level and common sense. But hey, at least you can say that the U.S. doesn’t have imaginary missiles :))
I want the buff for the F-15I and other AMRAAM spammers in the Israeli tree, but I digress. It’s not all about the US of A. What I really mean is that the discussion should focus on buffing these weapons that need actual buffs. Not just focusing all your energy crying about another nation, trying to get another nation nerfed.

BMPT, Su-34, Mi-28, BukM3/Pantsir, 2S38, and the endless missile bugs that only effect non-Russia aircraft.
At what point do we just accept the Russian bias claimers are right?
It is not only about missile performance, loadouts affect plane performance too while sitting on the belly until using them
I believe the OP is talking about the drag of the missiles while mounted on the aircraft.

They already turn better than igla in the game
The R-27ER and sparrow appear to have issues within the coding that make the R-27ER massively better.
It’s mostly that r-27er seekerhead has less range and it also has datalink which allows it to lock onto the right target and keep track on targets much better instead of going off to no where
Isn’t the name “Sidewinder” taken from the constant left/ right course changes it makes in flight resembles the Sidewinder snakes? that cant be good for energy retention.
