As you can see, the R-73 does not have this problem, it flies right on target, I was at an altitude of 5 meters, flying at 1500 km per hour, but two missiles hit the target right on target, and unlike the AIM-120, the Rada never lost the target.
Yeah, one could wonder why

I have a very strange feeling that the AIM-120 simply stopped keeping the target on the radar, it constantly loses the target, then re-aims again, but when it’s too late it flies past.
and monopulseseekers etc are a thing that fight against multipathing etc

this missile also came in way steeper, which makes the multipathing effect smaller
Are you saying that the AIM-9M will fly to the target in exactly the same way?
He says yes

every radar guided missile (ARH or SARH) is affected by multipathing, the IR guided missile aren’t

R-73 is an IR guided missile and isnt affected by Multipathing.
AMRAAM is an ARH guided missile and is
Multipathing is an affect experienced by only radars, R-73s dont have a radar.

That’s because the r73 tracks heat signatures and the aim120 tracks radar signatures
Yes, though they do have different methods of IRCCM. This can result in one missile being stronger than the other dependent on circumstances of each and every shot.
Aim-9M I fired most potent when fired from behind, but easily defeated when fired from the front.
nah this gotta be ragebait 😭

I don’t think so
The Mica is the best missile at close range, the AIM-120 is good in every scenario, witch make it probably one of the best missiles

MICA also has the best seeker at the moment.
Aim-54s/F-90s have the weakest.
Then everything else bar the MICA have the exact same seeker.
Only MICA has a unique seeker and its notably stronger than the rest, far harder to notch and chaff than the rest.
AMRAAM’s only meaningful strength is it has greater range, but once that advantage is mitigated by just closing the gap on the fight, then both MICA and R-77-1 outperform Aim-120 Kinetmatically

And then there is R-24R that behaves more ARH than the ARH missiles…
Even if the radar can’t do , it doesn’t give damn.
Weapon of choice in case of alien invasion…

R-24R. R-27R, R-27ER and Aim-7P all have IOG, this means, if used right, you can mitigate Multipathing by disabling the radar at the right moment, the missile will guide via IOG instead of SARH and hit.
