I face problems with R-73 all the time.
In my mission R-73 performed like in your video - strange flight trajectory.
Also, it usually misses the target. Look at firing distance and G-numbers.
The missile should kill the target 100%. It was bot, so it did not use flares and used afterburners all the time.
Maybe Gaijin introduced malfunction probability?
R-73 missed obvious kill

They still haven’t learned how to make an autopilot for a missile.

Strong TVC plane + strong TVC missiles:

Best in game every time I fly this thing I feel like an IL-76
Lmao they already have this (not really they just suck at coding), it was just only affecting Sparrows before. If they actually modeled malfunctions, then the KH-38 wouldn’t be overpowered, the R-27ER would have a 9% hit rate, and the game would just be worse to play.

This is due to launching at very low high speed and the angle of launch. Same thing has been a issue with TVC missiles since the addition of SRAAM

This is due to a faulty autopilot.

Yes but it’s exacerbated by launching at low speeds
Back in the SRAAM days between 200-400kmh the lower it got the worse it was
The R-27ER would have a 9% hit rate? Lmao even
It was mostly due to lack of datalink establishment, and also usage by monkey model jets going against amraams by incompetent pilots
Has more to do with poor maintenance of the ordnance. They sold the weapons to countries that could not keep them in storage because they did not know how, let alone have the equipment and personnel necessary to keep the equipment working. Missiles, tanks, planes, whatever, they can’t sit on a shelf. They fall apart when not in use.

Yeah, 9 percent hit rate is too low, aim9e levels. This is also supported by the fact that Russians still use r27, and india in 2019 also purchased r27 from artem
You realize the largest usage of R-27s was in a conflict in which they were in both sides and there were 0 AIM-120s right? LMAO the cope
Do you have a source for this?
