Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

Those were just the reports I could be bothered to find, there are a few others as well, like the AMRAAM should have a greater active range which would then mean a more powerful radar seeker. Could be important in the future.

and thats just based upon the Aim-120B. C5 is probably underperforming even more than that still

I use it in sim a lot on the sea harrier FA.2 and it’s meh.

“Meh” sounds about right…

A shame really considering R-77 can be faced at 13.3…

Visually 120fps, input delay and response time and frame time of 30fps (actually worse frame time by quite a bit) and ghosting harder than TAA

tbh I think frame genning at 30 fps is a bit too low, its why I usually aim for a base frame rate of at least around 50 fps before turning frame gen on. That way it still feels good enough while having insane motion fluidity

Yeah… Alas I think Gaijin is balancing via bug reports again

R-77 non -1 is pretty damn trash

Don’t even get me started on the ghosting and the artifacting of a terribly implemented frame gen system

id rather have r-77 than aim 120a/c5
having so much better turning ability makes such a big difference

Yes very good against noobs

Against anyone with a brain it’s a 1 for 1 kill.

That’s with me at 30,000 feet firing top down in the NEZ all 4 amraam where I will eat a R-77 in return for the flanker to in the deck dying

Dont even get me started on dagor engine and frame gen combined

No it’s very good

It’s harder to notch, seems to beats Mp much better and pulls far harder.

It’s better than amraam out to like 20-25km

AMRAAM is only good at very long range. However it’s useless here as it’s too easy to notch or literally just flying low defeats it.

harder to notch??? you genuinly are ragebaiting atp, stop confusing the R-77 and R-77-1, the AIM120 beats the R-77 by miles in every aspect but offbore shots, its the R-77-1 you are probably referncing here

r77 is not harder to notch.
It just turns harder

Mind you everything is hard to notch in the brick I’m flying.

And RVV / R-77 is all I’ve really faced

fairs, the sea harrier is definitely one of the bricks of all time.
The harrier 2 FM is soooo much better
i say play the italian or american amraam harrier slingers instead of the british one, much better

Yes except harrier 1 should actually be better for BVR and WVR.

Pulls a whole 1G less for any given AOA than it should so you can’t really enter notch that easily.

Where’s harrier 2 does it easily.

Just hover smh
