The lack of accuracy of the R-77-1 missile used by Russian vehicles in the game

Game Discussion Realistic Battle

I have spent exactly 450 hours on the Russian and Soviet tech tree. I dedicated 15 hours a day to this game for a month and a half. And what did I get out of it? I fired 12 R-77-1 missiles at a single player from as close as 20 kilometers, and not one of them connected. Not a single hit, not even any damage. Meanwhile, that same player fires one AIM-120C at me, and no matter how hard I maneuver, I cannot escape it.

Is this game really this unbalanced? Is it really this broken? Did I waste all this time just to hand points to the enemy team? It’s truly disgraceful. I believe there are people working in your management who favor the American side — looking at this situation, I deeply regret the day I started playing this game. Had I known it would come to this, I would never have started, and I would never have invited my friends to join, bringing you new players. I never imagined I could be treated this poorly by a game. My morale is shattered, and I am deeply saddened by all the time I have wasted. Shame on you. I have no other words left to say.

It’s simple, you do not know what you are doing, even though you have some of the best missiles in the game.

You are literally complaning about US planes in top tier even though they are some of the weakest to date besides Isreal

I have nothing more to say. I have already written my feelings, and these are the facts. I played this game for 450 hours and this is the result. I am deeply saddened.

Do you know the principles of radar notching and angle gating?

I’m sorry, but your feelings aren’t facts. The R-77-1 is one of the best ARH missiles currently in game. Similar maneuverability as the base R-77 + the range comparable to AIM-120.

the r77 is awful, I just fire it 15km. it has awful energy retention and if it pulls a little it loses all its energy

You are still a new player compared to most, and you still have a lot to learn, and that’s fine. Just be patient and learn.

I know it all, man, I know it all. Even in the Discord communities around me, we’re constantly arguing about how bad the R77-1 missile is.

At this point, this is clearly a bait post

20km is right on the edge of 77-1s effective range if I recall (and that’s with a decent amount of altitude and speed) and at this point most players know how to avoid ARH missiles if given plenty of warning.
MICA, 77s and 77-1s all trade range for extreme close range maneuverability (although 77-1s get a lot of that range back compared to 77s), AIM-120s are the opposite, AAM-4s and formally PL-12s where a sort of middle ground.
You need to use missiles in the situations that they are best at.

Don’t you mean R-77? R-77-1 can compete with aim120 no issues at range

??? The USA has the strongest top tier in the game currently

I can’t speak for the Su-30SM2, I’ve only spaded the SM, I couldn’t get the range out of the 77-1s I get out of the AIM-120As on the F-15J(m), I found the 77-1s where good out to 16 to 20km alt and speed dependent while I can hit with the AIM-120s out to 30km fairly easily, but I am aware that is largely due to the difference in alt and speed I can obtain in the J(m) compared to the SM.

I agree with you, buddy. These people are just trying to prevent US planes and missiles from getting nerfed.

You obviously can’t fairly compare missiles with different launch parameters.

Getting 40-50 km range kills is non uncommon with the R-77-1, similar effectiveness as the aim-120 when launching them at high altitude and high speed.

At close ranges and high off bore the R-77-1 clowns on the AIM-120. So it is clearly a better missile overall, the seeker is similar between them.

IG Rafale and EFT don’t exist
