when the devs changed the CM to equal the a/b model the image below was circulated.
this image was from Stat Shark and is not representative of the in-game performance as custom missiles do not have guidance delay and the CM is not modeled correctly. below is a test done by @DesMoines_Class showing the true in game performance.
I am posting this to try to spread the word for all who saw the previous images from Stat Shark that miss represent the improvement. again credit to @DesMoines_Class for correcting me and providing the images.
P.S The c-5 and D have near identical turn with the difference being the 120D is .91 kg heavier.

Man, someone should tell the US military they’ve unknowingly been making worse missiles instead of better ones, I bet they could save a lot money if they just switched back to the A/B model.

if the aim 120 D wasnt a upgrade america would not have made it would be waste of money gaijin is just making stuff up at this point
and before someone says make a bug report good luck finding any document on a HYPER classified missile

it makes zero sense how they run this game they say historically accuracy but only do it when its relevant

yea, i just want them to give up on this “we need a perfect source with exact numbers bc we can’t do our job and interpolate shit” BS. They have got to start making changes for the good of balancing the nations by taking things the DOD and other nations equivalents to say “oh this is under performing let’s see if we may have room to buff this based on statements ect.” but ofc not why tf would they do that. idk man i have no hope for the future of modern tech in game.

yup, the nation known for the biggest marketing lies LMFAO.
In fact, there is an improvement. You use custom files to create custom games in the game, and all aspects are the same as the real gaming experience, except for no network latency.

The change in center of gravity allows the missile to obtain a larger angle of attack, directly manifested as an improvement in turning ability.
And, StatShark’s simulation level of missiles is actually not perfect, the performance variation amplitude of missiles should be tested within the game. However, despite this, 120C5/C7 and 120D still received real improve And the faster the speed, the turn ratio of AIM-120C5/C7 and AIM-120D will be closer to AIM-120A/B.
‘old’ refers to before the change in center of gravity. ‘new’ refers to the modified version

interesting i would have expected Stat shark to at least show if there was an improvement even if it is not perfect. do you mind if i use these to update the og post? i do not want to miss-lead people and this is good way to give people the right idea about the performance of the missile.
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
i thought so but it actually has been improved just updated the og post check it out for details. still not a reason to buff the ckrackpot missile lol.
