So the 2 camps I see are the ones who want to play a game and ones who want to fly a sim. The gamers want everything to be the same...i.e. R-27 is just as good as the AIM-120. But those are the ones complaining because it isn't. Well thats military technology for you....one better than the other one day, then one better the next.
Then you have the simmers, who understand this, and make the best using the technology they have and use tactics accordingly.
I see the complaining coming from the gamers camp.
