Major Update "Leviathans" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

bro im posting the actual brochure for the thing not from wikipedia, check the stats from the brochure i posted

They can also just not add another premium

sorry misread it says dual burn I thought it meant 2 stage

that’s r-73

Interesting. Seeker range only seems to be 10km though

so its marginally longer 3.1 meters vs 2.9 yet again gain 30kg over the ASRAAM doesnt seem like an improvement to me especially if its still shorter range, lower top speed and a smaller warhead

aim-9x will be worst modern missile

it doesn’t really matter as it can be launched without a lock and be guided in via datalink until lock

Elaborate

they both have roughly same range (50km) with the rvvmd2 having thrust vectoring and loal, not sure if asram is loal. also i don’t know where you’re getting that it’s slower than asraam, I don’t think there’s any max speed of the missile on this brochure

If they do that they would be mis modeling it

the only numbers ive seen are mach 2.5 which is slower then ASRAAM, and yes ASRAAM has LOAL

Isn’t r74m2 just a clipped fin modernized r73?

That’s for r-74m, which is an older missile with a worse motor. I don’t think there’s any official max speed for rvv-md2 yet.

Good thing the F-35 and F-22 can carry the IRST now

can they…? I havent seen anything on that

That won’t do anything for the aim-9x kinematics which will literally be the worst out of all modern ir missiles. it has garbage range and a garbage motor. Only hope I see for the us is if gaijin give americans asraams
