It isn’t chopped up, the manual is a word document I just deleted the number of the pages
There is nothing worth to take note. You refuse to provide sources that (I already know is chopped) up & combined with other paragraphs to mislead.
You posted by accident the undeniable truth of the matter though:
The R-27R & ER cannot be used just as the R-73.
You can bend over backwards, translate it 25 different times, interpret it 7 ways, go to the moon & back to justify video game logic.
At the end of the day. Reality wins.
Ok here, first educate yourself on the design principles of planar array radars that are found in the Mig-29 SMT & the F-16C.
L16_Arrays4.pdf (mcmaster.ca)
Then, after you are finished, I will teach you about ancient radars that have Cassegrain antennas such as that the Mig29 & su27 have that were literally taken from the Mig-23ML.
Well you can believe what you want, I don’t even know why I tried to show you based on manuals how the system functions when you say my sources are cropped up XD. If it doesn’t match your agenda you won’t believe it.
You aren’t a dev and you don’t even do bug reports, so anything you say doesn’t actually matter.
Also I am gonna wait for you to teach me about ancient radars that have Cassegrain antennas. I expect a 250-300 pages for the document with specific and general case of applications. I expect to see this assignment within a week starting from today. 18:00 (Moscow Time) 03/06/2024

It’s your own word that convicts you, my friend.
Radar guided missiles cannot be used in the same fashion as the R-73.
Neither does it make any sense as the R-73 is the missile used for close quarters. The R-27R & ER cannot be fired in a dogfight anyway.
The R-27R & ER cannot exceed 5Gs & no more than 50-degree roll rate. The Cassegrain attenna & will fail to track properly. The R-27T & ET are not affected.
Su-27SK Manual, professional English translation
You people are only emotionally attached to fake capabilities because you either do not have the aircraft or lack skill in WT.
True Flanker fans want historical performances & GJ to fix the FM issues & IRST capability which is much better than a fake radar PD HMD mode.
In fact, this is not entirely true

“In fact, not entirely true?”
You are doing the coping thing, again.
It’s even in the Russian Su-27SK flight manual page 129.
I have both.
It’s even in the Russian Su-27SK flight manual page 129.
In fact, there is a lot missing from this book.This is a guide for an export aircraft. And suddenly, each missile suspension point has its own limitations. And for different speeds
If you think things are missing, sure I won’t take that from you.
I would agree. There are things about the Su-27 completely restricted for public transfer.
I think the helmet sight works with the missile heads ?
It does, yes. That is why the IR missiles are listed & not the radar variants. They are capable of immediate track & launch from the HMS alone.
The R-27 & ER follow in line after the radar, not the IRST.
The Radar dish is not as responsive nor able to rapidly reach to the wide degrees the optical seeker of the R73 can.
The Su-27 is limited to the same 50-degree scan as the Mig-29 with no ability to widen because its radar uses an obsolete antenna & reflector that can barely move.
So how is this historical, technological limitation present in game, but a magical PD HMD can disregard it & exceed it?

Beautiful aircraft.
Two seat types of Flankers are my favorite.
Only a fool would think it needs to.
The radar will just follow your head’s position as fast as it can, and catch up when you stop moving your head. A bit like how in tank battles if you move your cursor faster than the turret can turn then it will just turn towards where your cursor is and then if you stop moving your cursor the turret will carry on turning towards it until it reaches it and stops.
And the radar does not need to be pointed with sub-degree precision. Between the beam width of the beam, and the conical scan pattern getting it within a few degrees should be fine.

Interesting presentation of the technology.
Did your degree in video games teach you this?
Nope, was just using the game as an example that I hoped you might have been able to understand.
So do you also think the F-4J also couldn’t steer it’s radar with the VATS helmet in real life?

About Oswald coefficient.
“Constants for Oswald for aircraft with a design like the Su-27 are not applicable. There, this coefficient is non-linear for different speeds. Constants apply when planes have a straight wing of great elongation.
“The plane’s parameters are set according to the curve, climbing, speed, acceleration schedules. Everything is coming together well now. Oswald’s changes will cause a discrepancy between any schedule.
“There are no nonlinear coefficients in the game yet (technical limitation), but this will not make the plane better, rather even worse.”
“Константы для Освальда для самолетов с конструкцией вроде Су-27 неприменимы. Там этот коэффициент нелинеен для разных скоростей. Константы применимы, когда у самолеты прямое крыло большого удлиненния”
“Параметры самолета настроены по графикам виража, скороподъемости, скорости, разгона. Сейчас все хорошо сходится. Изменения Освальда вызовет несоответствие какому-либо графику”
“Нелинейных коэффицентов в игре пока нет (техническое ограничение), но лучше от этого самолету не станет, скорее даже хуже”

The F-4J is not using a Opto-electronic pointing station nor was it effective at all & was abandoned by the US.
Any other failed US technologies of the 70’s you would like to use as example?
What was the advantage of the casegrain antenna ?
