R-73L in game Encyclopedia

Did you notice the new R-73L in Encyclopedia?

It's been in game for a while, performance wise its mostly the same last I played with it on  a modded plane.

 

Does remind me, the in game version is the RMD-1 (both radio and laser fused ones), our planes should also be compatible with the RMD-2, according to RuAF pilots introduced some time in 1995 featuring improved IRCCM and 60/75 deg gimbals.

 

It's been requested to ED and acknowledged, we just don't know when

 I did some digging into the files, I found two entries that I found interesting.

R_73__AA_11_Archer____Infra_Red = {"clsid": "{FBC29BFE-3D24-4C64-B81D-941239D12249}", "name": "R-73 (AA-11 Archer) - Infra Red", "weight": 110}

*R_73__AA_11_Archer____Infra_Red_ = {"clsid": "{CBC29BFE-3D24-4C64-B81D-941239D12249}", "name": "R-73 (AA-11 Archer) - Infra Red", "weight": 110}

R_77__AA_12_Adder____Active_Rdr = {"clsid": "{B4C01D60-A8A3-4237-BD72-CA7655BC0FE9}", "name": "R-77 (AA-12 Adder) - Active Rdr", "weight": 175}

*R_77__AA_12_Adder____Active_Rdr_ = {"clsid": "{B4C01D60-A8A3-4237-BD72-CA7655BC0FEC}", "name": "R-77 (AA-12 Adder) - Active Rdr", "weight": 250}

 

These are the CLSIDs for the base game R-73 & 77 and the new ones are represented with an asterisk

I tested the gimbals and range, they're pretty much identical it does give weird hardpoints that either clip into things float or are redundant A2G hard points

Are they new though?

 

As far as I can see, they are just the alternate entries with the proper weapon/launchers combinations(hence the weight difference), which have been there for ages. The reason for this is quite simply because some aircraft entries(like e.g. the Su-27) had 3D models with fixed weapon launchers, while other(like the Su-25T and Su-25TM) had removable launchers.

No, in my first post I said they were older entries.
