R-27R missing targets also as 27ER.

The solution on a gameplay level for this would be to introduce a proper pilot physiology model (equal across all Modules where you'd expect a G-suit) that would prevent you from having perfect avionics control (operating an MFD or Radar like we do at a desk in a 6G+ loaded roll is an ambitious interpretation) in such a violent maneuver and also cause heavy pilot dizzieness ontop - like any other relevant flight sim has implemented it -. This would also punish people who abuse the lagroll in Multiplayer. 

But Nick Grey said they don't really care about the gameplay aspect of DCS. So this entire thing about R27s missing, AIm-120 barrellrolling etc. is pointless and expecting DCS changes on a gameplay level is not realistic accroding to ED themselves.

He said they care about fidelity though!

The R-27 doesn't even need to be defended, since it will throw itself off from the target, no turning, no chaff, nothing has to be done.
And this happened multiple times now.
The API clearly works as inteded, defenetly not bugged.

No worries in the end, its only all the BVR armament of the MiG-29, so it is very usable.
