as far as i know aim9X have like a 25 mile range max
I mean the ASRAAM of the taildogs slapped on a gr9a.
also gr1 is a great plane I’m probs gonna pick it up after the buffs to have some fun with it
ASRAAM is reported to have about 50km under ideal conditions
sounds like good compeitor
ASRAAMs and Taildogs are different things
This is a great thread for comparing them
oh i see
should note that this is not likley in 95% of firing situations
so from what im getting roughly eqaul to or a little better than 9X
what do russians get
ASRAAMs would be better than 9Xs unless Gaijin does the usual british = bad move

not by to much though Like aam3 and 9m
Id say likley on the slightly better side as its proven itself in some more ridiculous ways so far
if a 9m can even compete it would be the worst modelled thing in the game by an insane amount. Even with gaijins tendency to gimp British kit that would be really extreme
No, but a core tenant of the ASRAAM was to be able to outstick basically anything and hit the target before they could fire. Everything else is irrelevant if the target cant get into range to use their own wepaons.
Germans disagreed with this philosophy which is why they left hte program to develop IRIS-T which basically takes the opposite approach.
But whilst 50km is under certain conditions, all reported missile ranges are the same.
IRIS-T is reported to have a max range of 25km, but I doubt you would want to fire one past about 10km usually

no no i meant 9m and AAM3 the AAM3 being slightly better at range it was a example
as far as i know aim9X pulls roughly 60Gs while asraam only pulls 50G but gets extra range so id say its a trade off
The difference between 9M and AAM-3 would be bigger if AAM-3s were modelled realistically lol

lol
to be fair where on early blocks of 9m
