Why do USA's AGMs miss so much?

,


Why did it miss? I wasn’t moving for 5 minutes and it had a clear line of sight for the whole flight duration.
I have never seen this happend to a Kh38, but it seems to happend a lot with USA’s.

its a pretty simple reason, incorrect flight profile so it doesnt loft anywhere near as much as it should making it much more likely something gets between the seeker and the target and incorrect kinematics so it doesnt have enough energy at impact to correct for the target moving suddenly

Youd need to check at what range it was fired.

travelled 9.4kms, couldnt have been more than 10/11 kilometers.

agm65s are pretty pathetic, they fly slower than props terminally, i had a roland 1 intercept it on an diagonal trajectory they were so slow.

Then shouldn’t have fallen out of the sky kinematically… Hmm…

agm65s dont really hit the correct range figures ingame
