I think Smin already said these missiles won’t be considered until 5th gen
R-74 doesn’t exist
Isn’t the R-74 an improved variant of the R-73?
Edit: yes it absolutely is
Do we not have HUD footage that proves it’s real somewhere?
is there a thread on the forum about the R-73 and the rest of the archer family development? Can only find one about the base R-73 we have in game
It’s the improved variant of the R-73M
R-74m exists not r-74
K-74 exists but was a project that died in the90s
Please stop trolling
R-74m =not euqual= to r74
R74 doesn’t exist
Yeah but isn’t it obvious that when people say R74 they refer to that?
By the way you can use != as a not equal sign
no because what people think of by r-74 is improved r-73. that is wrong
k-74 is what people think of when they say r-74
you’re thinking of r74m2. that is not r74
Oh that’s possible indeed
Why didn’t you say that in the first message, that’s more clear
because there’s conflicting sources. secondary sources think r-74 exists. primary sources dictate only r-73, r-73e, r-73m, r-74m, and r-74m2 exist
secondary sources are not as reliable as primary sources, so I think r-74 don’t exist and is a mistake
That feels like medias calling the Russian Su-35S “Su-35”
su-35 is export designation of su-35s. it is also export designation of su-27m.
for example, primary exporter of russian arms calls it su-35 because that is what is exported
Yep but Russian ones are called Su-35S and most media still call them Su-35.
Overall I just hate that bad habit Russians have of making a gazillion plane variants and giving them a gazillion different names that aren’t even coherent/consistent with each other and reusing names of cancelled projects. That brings in so much confusion
