Maneuverability R-27ER / R-77

[asparagin]

Can we get some numbers for comparison around the maneuverability of the R-27ER and R-77? (for LO 2.0)

[combatace]

Actual or in FC2??

 

In FC2 acceleration at turn or R-77 is 30 and R-27ER is 18. These are constants may be affecting some iterations in the SIM.

[asparagin]

Where did you find the acceleration values and what iteration do you mean?

[combatace]

They are present in the missiledata.lua file. Nr-max is the parameter quantifying the acceleration at turn. And about iterations I don't know that because 30 can directly be degree/second or it may be a number used in some equation that will calculate the acceleration at turn of missile to simulate the near real performance of the missile.

It can be whatever then.

Degree/sec it is not for sure. Being acceleration a correct unit would be m*s-2 or rad*s-2.

Nr_max is max Gs. Not sure how these datas are computed thereafter, though. (Encyclopedia does give 30 and 18 G limit for 77 and 27ER, respectively)

Encyclopedia.. the last place one would look. Thanks for the info.

Sorry, was at job so I hurriedly typed that post and made a mistake.

[asparagin]

No problem. (by the way I was also at work ;))

They're effectively hard limits, though they can be over-shot slightly on occasion.

30G with R-77, R U sure it's right? Seems a bit 2 much!
