Capn kamikaze Posted December 21, 2023 Posted December 21, 2023 Just did a test with a Su-30 attacking a ship, the launch conditions were 30,000ft, 991 knots. It didn't launch until approximately 33nm from the target, the encyclopedia for the P variant, the A seems to be missing, says this missile has a range of 150km, since aerodynamically there's no difference, and the motor is the same, they should have the same kinematic performance. So is the encyclopedia wrong, or is the missile in game wrong, doesn't seem to matter what parameters I try, it doesn't even come close to 150km.
razo+r Posted December 21, 2023 Posted December 21, 2023 I know wiki is bad but there it says the A has a range of 70km (38nm) and is defined with 60km in the files, so it seems correct? 19 minutes ago, Capn kamikaze said: since aerodynamically there's no difference, and the motor is the same, they should have the same kinematic performance. But they fly a different profile, so while the missile is the same, the range differs due to them flying in different dense air.
Capn kamikaze Posted December 21, 2023 Author Posted December 21, 2023 So where did they get that 150km from in the encyclopedia, and why is the P variant there, but not the A, did that variant get pruned or something lol 3 minutes ago, razo+r said: I know wiki is bad but there it says the A has a range of 70km (38nm) and is defined with 60km in the files, so it seems correct?
