yeah its obvious rail launched missiles have lower guidance delays than their dropped counter parts. but gaijin doesnt accept video evidence

Not only that, but you can also see the fin rotating in the screenshots
I left the post like a day, wtf happened I thought this one died.
Also while looking back through why was someone who has never used the AMRAAM’s posting on a discussion related to the AMRAAM’s underperforming slightly I feel like for a topic with this much nuance you probably should have a couple matches in a AMRAAM carriers.
However I respect the determination to play only Russian Air that would have sucked like hell 3 years ago when it was actually a pretty sad toptier.
Edit: Because this got flagged by someone, This is not “Ad hominem” this is simply saying that an argument when the user never tested the thing being discussed and argued about kinda causes misinformation, lol.
The fact I have to add this edit is stupid, is their no way to get a mod to review, not that its worth it anyways wasn’t a significant comment worth bothering a mod over.

Yes, the R-77-1 beats them at these ranges, now the AIM-120 is the worst top tier ARH by a good margin

crazy how often this happens
It barely turns above 20ish Gs because of the anemic AoA, it’s pathetic for an ARH missile.
But hey, we’re allegedly wrong for asking to get it fixed because of reasons like “It won’t change anything”, “Other missiles should also be buffed” or basically opinionated nonsense and spam.

the max it reaches in the clip is 24.4G but thats after the amraam has built up all of its speed and is trying to hit a very fast and maneuvering target
This is actually so sad to see lmao. If this pace keeps up, we are in for a hell of a meta when newer ARH missiles are added.

First thing ic is that you were too slow to begin with hindering the aim 120 ability to reach its proper speeds adding to the fact that it had to maneuver right after launch
Are yall even debating here??
Is it not clear that the AIM-120 is pretty bad? Or that the AMRAAM is not only available only to the U.S.? and some buffs will give most countries new capabilities?.
The French mains don’t want their mica to be matched, and relax it probably won’t. Giving the AMRAAM WVR performance won’t match the MICA, maybe a better seeker gating, but this thread is for the maneuverability issues only

WVR turn performance could be somewhat dismissed if the seeker was even slightly better to enhance BVR and tracking outside of knife fight in phonebooth furball. But that’s beating a horse that’s so dead it has been mummified and placed in a snail shaped tomb.
