Updated R-77 and R-73 come out

[4c Hajduk Veljko]

Thus the R-77 has a longer range then AMRAAM. Maybe under certain conditions, however, it does have a longer range. R77 is over 20 years old design.

When you shoot them in a straight line.

 

GGTharos, you believe that the SAM = Speed Bump, I believe that the SAM = Stealth STOP! Both of us have arguments strong enough to make our points. You have your statement in your signature, I have mine at the end of my paragraphs.

 

Reminder: SAM = Stealth STOP!

 

 

And really, stop that childish behavior already. Believing in a lie won't make it come true.

In practical usage the R-77 has no advantages over AMRAAM. The new design may have caught up with the 120C at this point.

 

India complained enough about their batch.

No, this is a fact. It isn't even my own statement.

You have yours at the end of your paragraphs only when you respond to me. Quit acting like a child.

SAM = Speed Bump

I'm sorry, what's the meaning of this? :)

[GGTharos]

The meaning of it is that a SAM can slow down, but not stop, an attacking air force. Or in other words, you can't control the air with just SAMs, you need aircraft too. Unless your opposition is totally out-matched that is.

[Maximus_G]

Alright, i agree with this.

Thanks GG! :)

Because you are the only one having such "interesting" statement in your signature.

I'm more interested of Data link Super ET that goes for heat and visual.

R-77 has longer range then AIM120.

You didnt get it.

Both delta and lattice control surfaces have their pro's and con's, if the Russian's utilise delta's on their new R-77 it'll finally put the lattice v's Delta control surface debate to bed. From an aerodynamic POV I personally think deltas are more efficient for a BVR missile, oh well time will tell.

I would think delta fins would have more surface area so more drag but also more control when missile is maneuvering.

No. you didn't get it.

Performances aside, wouldn't traditional delta fins be cheaper to produce than Lattice ones?
