The R-77 'ADDER' - History, Design, Performance & Discussion

Yes, but as you said it is logical.
You cannot just say this for the base R77. As you’ve proven, the R33 indeed does loft but the base R77 remains unproven to loft. R27 manual doesn’t state whether it lofts or not.

We shall wait now

“Along with the main guidance option, special lofted trajectories can be used”

You wouldn’t be able to DM me the whole book, would you? This is the first I’ve heard of lofted R-77’s, and I’m curious to learn more.

You didn’t models the fins?

Are you trying to get the Cf of the missile?
Also for your initial parameter, judjing on the air density, its close to the sea level?

Maybe not enough ram for rendering the grid fins (yet)

SL. std day.
The fins are still removed. There are inaccuracies in the geometry, they will be added later. I also want to estimate the increase in resistance from the fins

Given the image itself this could be a mention of manual lofting as the MIG-29 in the picture is quite nose up while firing.

So what does everyone think about this missile right now? I couldn’t get a lot of satisfactory results due to only having access to the 29smt as a launch platform. Seems better than the amraam within 10km, generally pulls off the rail. But at longer ranges it feels weird similarly to the phoenix

R-77/PL-12 seeker needs more detailed modeling // Gaijin.net // Issues

Summary of the report is this:

Current performance of the R-77/PL-12 seeker is

HPRF mode - 16km at 2m^2

Proposed changes ---->:

HPRF mode - 36km at 2m^2
MPRF mode - 12km at 2m^2

So the HPRF radar mode range will increase, and there will be an inclusion of MPRF mode.

Why it became 36 degrees from 40 is not clear

Reduced energy loss when turning, lower AoA hit the affect of the fins is greater… this is a buff

In a real missile 40 AoA

Well then, idk, guess you could report it

autopilot seems weird to me tbh, very often itll just not lead enough and end up behind the target trying to chase it on top of the fact they wobble a lot

I can not

this missile is horrible loses all of it energy in a instant now way this accurate
