When playing them in the dev they were doing that. (I know this video is from first fox3 test, but the results were identical in last dev)
I was talking about Dev server. I can’t test derby on live server.

You cant speak about the skill issues here. The main problem with R-77 is range. Range give a huge advantage on AIM-120

Darter and derby still loft into orbit and have stupidly high drag for no reason which limits their range

Yeah so you do take war thunder random pub matches this seriously… I could understand if you were talking about competitive play
The platforms carrying the r77 are the bigger issue here. Both the su27 and mig29 have gimped FMs in contrast to usaf planes. The F15 seems realistic for the most part, the f16s… lol…

They are worse in almost every part. I think the main problem is radar.
it caused a gap in your attack range. you are just a sandbag in this situation, hard to fight back while they can do whatever they want

swear to god gaijin always pulls this bs. everything is slightly broken enough to piss everyone off
You can make an attempt to rectify that gap by leveraging your IRST system. When you have locked a target with one sensor system, swapping to the other sensor system causes it to make an attempt to reacquire the same target. There is no 10km range restriction for locking targets with IRST. The target simply needs to be hot enough for you to acquire a lock. Assuming conditions are favorable for a lock with both systems (no clouds blocking LOS, the opponent isn’t coincidentally notching you already, etc), then you can first lock the target with IRST and then swap over to radar so that you can fire your R-77.
It’s not as good as having every advantage handed to you on a silver platter like the Americans, but it’s serviceable. It’s faster than waiting to fly within 10km or praying that the slow scan finally highlights the right target. BVR lock controls are significantly more pleasant on the Yak-141 with its faster scan rate and adjustable scan patterns.

it’s fixed long ago, in last update, it’s no working. IRST has a 25km range in good weather, but if you lock someone 10km+ and switch to radar, it will loose
I mean yes and no. I don’t want to die. I am here to enjoy, it does not mean I don’t care.
Yeah, I did not denied the fact that r77 has no range. I said that it has other qualities
Yep, I tried Grippen again. The loft may be good if launched at 10km alt on 10km alt target. But at 4k m alt, 10km range, it did not have the energy to catch an F15 doing S on the same alt level… Whereas all other missile would have get him.
I mean everybody knows that NATO is far more capable when it comes to advanced technologie compared to Russia but yeah good to see it ingame now, r27er has taken control of ARB for 1.5 years now while the aim-7m cannot compete with it, so its our turn to have fun :)

No you see, its only the people who are looking to be annoyed and get annoyed by just about anything that get annoyed and post about it on the forums. The American US mains get annoyed when they are not dominating, the German garmany mains get annoyed when they dont have the by far best version of an originally german vehicle, the Blackshirts get annoyed when they feel like Italy is being slighted, the Swedish sweden mains get annoyed when they aren’t teated like a major nation, the British Britain mains get annoyed about just about everything and so on. Most people just play the game and stop when they stop having fun, but you get this quite loud minority on the forums that is always complaining about something, and it makes it seem like the game is constantly Fubar, when it isnt, and the majority of players dont care about the things they whine about.

Hiding and the pilot flying at low altitude and aiming for him? also i doubt this one.
Still doesn’t change the obvious fact buddy.
