The R-77-1, missile?

Game Discussion General Discussion

It should have more range. I would have tested it but I don’t have Su-30 in game.

6

I believe the two stage motor was removed but it has a longer stronger single stage burn than the standard r77

7

What? it was nerfed already?

8

It wasnt a nerf, the total deltaV didnt change just how it is used, also this happened on the dev server I believe

9

yeah, but removing a feature from the missile itself for the so called ‘balance’ it is a nerf in the end

10

No, it wasnt for balance and it didnt really change anything about the missile, so it wasnt a nerf, it was just a minor change, one that had no real effect

Hope so…

I hope I do not end up hating SU-30SM

If you end up not liking it I can assure you it wont be because of the R-77-1

13

I just test the R-77-1 in test flight, I shot the R-77-1 to the MiG-15bis at 20 km distance… it failed, so if R-77-1 can’t hit a MiG-15bis which is a bot, what is the odds against a player with a gen 4 jet…

14

Not many missiles can actually hit the mig15bis at 20km, because they arent flying towards you, which will probably be happening most of the time when you try those 20km shots in actual games, also you likely werent going the optimal speed or at the best altitude for BVR launches

15

Lmao.

What alt?

What speed?

Was the mig15 going towards or away from you?

Did you guide it in properly?

So many questions to be asked about how this test of yours was done.

LMAO it must be hard being that wrong.

Why? A missile that is better in every metric, the R-77-1, isn’t enough for the USSR tree?

Quick look at your statshark profile shows you have neither R-77-1 nor AMRAAM capable plane so it seems you have literally no idea what you are talking about.

I don’t feel like debating which Fox-3 is best right now, but the 77-1 is clearly competitive. Right now the biggest thing holding it back is that it is only found on a comparatively lethargic airframe that cannot achieve the kind of high speed high altitude launches that its rivals can.

Also, regarding those mig-15s on the test map, the launch probably got notched. Those mig-15s are flying in a really lazy circle and are just about to spend some time loitering in the doppler notch if you make a beeline towards them immediately after spawning.

yeah cuz it is

22

77-1 is so good that it makes the 27ER pointless to use in the 30SM. Skill issue
