Sorry Gaijin, but that's not how missiles work

This was a weird one.
I understand that Russian technology is “the best of the best” but I am pretty confident that this was seen in Guardians of the Galaxy only.
R73 is not Yondu’s arrow.


I “love” how these “Real Marvels” get 20G right from the pilon, swerve 90 degrees (cut through the plane), then turn again, and reach the target behind the plane.

So what a player can do when Gaijin “mechanics” is all against them?
Skill here doesn’t matter against that.

Didn’t you know?

THE MISSILE KNOWS WHERE IT IS AT ALL TIMES!

try server replay

yes, that’s server replay (both from in game and browser show the same).
Because as you see, the timeline is f**** .

I looked because it was an impossible shot. I intentionally maneuvered in such a way so he couldn’t have a shot on me. As you see not even with his guns.
You have the replay link as well.

Son it’s a r73. What did you expect

Dad … c’mon …
You’re beside the point?! Like that missile.

Its not really a mechanic, more like a lack of a mechanic preventing missiles from being fired at impossible trajectories.
What can really be done about this issue?

The missile have tvc. And sources shows it’s seeker can go to 90*.

What’s the problem here. Just pre flare and you’ll dodge it

That was my point. For Gaijin … if it says 40G then is 40G from the pylon.
The missile doesn’t have thrust vectoring didn’t even catch it’s target speed.
Simple, there should be a cone of maneuvering which should be proportional to the speed.
But here none of that matters as if Ivan sees target, target is dead.

Real minors. r73s are railed, collision should be off for bug reduction, and they can just add a bit of clearing off stuff into the FCS in reality.

  • minimum engagement range is about 300 meters
  • the seeker can detect targets up to 40° off the missile’s centerline (not 90!!!)

men 40º off the missile centerline

Again, educate yourself 🙏
