ofcourse cones will be more aerodynamic in this case. if it was a smooth curve flat like the T or ET it wouldnt make much difference at slower speeds.
cones work better at mach speeds though
But you cant force radar into datalink to missile mode, trouble in that.
Even for using a new missile of the same family, software updates are necessary. Clearly, no one will upgrade the aircraft to use a missile that doesn’t exist.
So, you just prove that it causes difference.
As i said earlier - i won’t retype the bunch of text to someone too lazy for just scroll up.
Just go through topic, and you will find all what you need.
You have a psychiatrist grade/diploma?
If no - you wrong, boi.
not really.
AMRAAMs are made to be forwards and backwards compatible.
the R-27s are too.
the only thing that needs to be updated is the mission computer which needs to be told what ordinance it is carrying and since the EA has nearly similar flight and range performance ground engineers dont have to edit anything else
i didnt argue against that?
lol
Do you have any proofs more than words? Without any valuable proofs you re балабол.
Text can be copied.
Give link at least.
Proof that.
Not in guidance, starting from one of C versions have 2 way datalink with missile, last have GPS onboard.
And even in size, theyre different, you cant fit 120A into F-22 for example
You stated “same perfomance”
When using an AMRAAM, the fighter’s HUD displays the maximum firing range, no-escape zone, approximate time to impact, and so on. How can the onboard computer accurately calculate this data if it doesn’t have the specifications for the new missile?
Modularity in whole R-27 family.
ARAGM missle just need to been launched in right direction.
And it’s your part - proof, that EP been in manual.)
Even if you nitpick every word in this book (and remember, it’s just a book, not a test report), it won’t help you. Because the missile was tested on a modified aircraft, not a production model.
Ok…
1 more time, to the ones, who have thickest skulls…
№970, which MiG-29, able to use R-27, been modified to use R-77.
Then, it been use (without more modifications), to test R-27EA.
That means, plane, which can use R-27, and R-77, CAN use R-27EA, because, can launch R-27, and can guide ARH missiles.
I explained it so simply that even a person far from the world of aviation understood. If you don’t understand even this way, I’ll just wash my hands of it. I can explain something to a person who doesn’t understand something, but I can’t explain it to someone who is unable to understand (impossible, too stupid) or doesn’t want to (useless).
I’ll be happy if it be true.
But Flogger sent me a flight manual, and here been nit a word, about EP (anti-radiation).
Not in guidance, starting from one of C versions have 2 way datalink with missile, last have GPS onboard.
yes but they cant operate with one way datalink as well.
you cant fit 120A into F-22 for example
you can fit only 2 120A/B into a single compartment on the 22, they made the 120C with smaller fins so that it could fit 3 in a single compartment (overall 6)
- i stated nearly the same
- R-27EA and ER have a similar nose cone. none of these has a flat cap

Any trustable sources of that?
So you know that changes to guide R-77 in case of MiG-29 was different radar? No?
How can the onboard computer accurately calculate this data if it doesn’t have the specifications for the new missile?
two methods of use.
either enable master arm and override launch auth or tell your ground crew engineer to enter the data into the mission computer.
its actually done with each sortie but people tend to overlook this
ARAGM missle just need to been launched in right direction.
It’s not that easy. Detect radiation source, it’s type, fly into permissible zone of launch, then launch it.
yes but they cant operate with one way datalink as well.
Are you sure about that?
What about GPS?
R-27EA and ER have a similar nose cone. none of these has a flat cap
Similar to 100% or theres difference?
Flat cap - example.
