R-73 (40G) vs. AIM-9X (50G) – Where's the 60G fix for R-73?

I’ve noticed that the AIM-9X missile currently boasts a maximum G-force of 50G. In stark contrast, the R-73 missile is inexplicably limited to a mere 40G.

What makes this particularly concerning is the fact that for over two years, there has been an official bug report on the community bug reporting platform which clearly indicates that the R-73 should possess a 60G overload capacity.

My question is: Why, despite having confirmed sources pointing to 60G for the R-73, does it remain at only 40G in the game, while the AIM-9X is set at 50G?

Source?

If R-73 is 60G, AIM-9X is 70.

And? Gaijin always underestimates the G limits in the game. Python 4s are about 70Gs in real life, while they are limited much lower in game. And Python 5s should be even higher than the 50Gs they set in game.

Python-5’s can achieve 50G+ on dual plane, when it’s fired from stationary launcher it cannot reach those G numbers, same goes for any other missiles.
