After launch, the Aim-9x begins to maneuver faster than the R-73. But I was told that the aim-9x has an engine from the aim-9m, that is, it has less energy than the r-73
Not true
Do you know what engine it is?
Thats literally just a flare. Flares dont maneuver. An AIM-9E can hit flares, too. Besides the pull off the rail, you didnt prove anything about how hard the missile pulls mid-flight.
In this video she began to maneuver faster than in my video 💀
… at a target thats just falling out of the sky.
So can you tell me what engine is on the aim-9x?
The problem is that you first need to prove that the R-73 can actually do that.

The full picture is kinda hard to see. Do you have a zoomed out version?
The AIM-9X has thrust vectoring, as shown in the video it’s launched from an F-15. Theres no possible way it could be the same engine as the AIM-9M lmao.
What point do you think you’re making by asking me the name of the engine? Can you tell me the name of the worker who built the first R-73? If not, i guess it never existed, and thats just according to your logic.
The P73 can realistically hit a target behind your back, it’s a documented possibility. but 1 second is a person just making a mistake.
Kek. Meanwhile, the 9X has proven itself to be the best destroyer of Chinese balloons:D

Indeed, it’s quite amusing. After all, Russian missiles have an impressive list of victories (not).

How can the aim-9x engine depend on thrust vectoring?
I didn’t understand what you want? That the plane is firing at a flare and the maneuverability of the missile is visible or what?
Once again, no maneuvering targets to be found…
It’s one thing for a missile to pull 90 degrees and just go straight. It’s completely different for it to pull 90 degrees and then go for a maneuvering target.
I don’t have the video. But it was precisely because of the possibility of launching missiles behind their backs that the USSR studied the possibility of creating backward-looking radars. But the idea was not a good one and was abandoned.
I’m just curious, why do you refuse to believe that a missile with a controlled thrust vector can hit a target behind an airplane?
Because it’s a Russian missile? Or is it just a habit of denying everything?

Well would you look at that.
Because its a wild claim that sounds farfetched. I’d cast doubt on it had it been American, German, Russian, French, you name it.
