Mig29 and Mig31 were the first to use them. Later Su30 and later modifications of the Su27 got them
and? If they add R77-1 they can replace it

Because it’s an export missile, made for foreign customers.
Try to prove it.
Yes, but right now the SM is flying with a missile that it actually didn’t have. That’s all I wanted to say.
so when they were created they were used to make sure of their effectiveness, then they began to sell this rocket
I’d be happy if they actually replaced R77 with R77-1 because it’s slightly better

They were used by test pilots on upgraded aircraft. The Russian Air Force didn’t have these aircraft, so they couldn’t use the RVV-AE missiles.
Why would I give a flying f about it since you will make another excuse to say that RU shouldnt have anything above I-153 and T-26
That’s nonsense. But the fact is that the Russians never had the R-77. Until the appearance of the R-77-1.
Do some research on the MiG-29S, especially the 9-13S variants.
If you’re talking about the 9-13S aircraft that was in DCS, even the developers themselves said they added the R-77 for balance.
Ah, that doesn’t change anything, because the R-77 was never procured by the Russian Air Force.
Oh for fucks sake
I can’t help you with that. This issue has been raised multiple times on aviation forums, on the DCS forum, and even on this forum.
… you yourself think about what you are writing, the Russian missile was not used in Russian plans, that is, they were present on the F-16? if they even created it in Kyiv, then Kyiv uses Russian Migsu aircraft
Yeah… it’s the same with all top SPAA. Top SPAA hasn’t given lock warnings in years due to this thing called IR tracking.
You should be treating ground matches as if you’re always locked due to that.
The RVV-AE missile can be used with export variants of Su and MiG aircraft, such as the Su-30MK* series.
A counter question, when creating and designing the Su-30 in Russia, they did not meet with the R-77 missiles in it, for example, they tested compatible missiles on the fighter itself, or Russia sells missiles and aircraft with flights indicated, without testing these missiles on its own carriers ?
I mean, when designing missiles, they are tested on different fighters for effectiveness, especially for sale to other countries, if so, then they were used on the Su-30 and other aircraft
