i ment to type plus there whoops

• R-40RD & R-40TD

@vidzforlyf Tysm, that worked, also can you make more Russian missiles like the R-77 and R-37?

@ItsMENightmare i found the issue. The drag on the nose of the missile randomly doesent stay the same when placing it on pylons, that's why i had no issue, but you did i just had the same issue on my aircraft when testing, try to place it on different pylons and check the drag, see how red it is. https://imgur.com/a/piPFKHu

@ItsMENightmare uh it's hard to see but I don't see what's wrong, did it not hit? Fyi the booster is supposed to run out of fuel after 5.3 seconds that's the whole point of these missiles to have realistic turn and booster performance. edit: ok so im guessing the target is the f15? and the missile is going straight up and not going for it, that is indeed strange, does not happen for me. for me it flies well and hit targets with 80% accuracy. there are some issues with the proximity fuse but not really anything going horribly wrong, im going to upload an aircraft with a tweaked aim9L with a few different fixes and changes to make it a little better.

For reference it was basically flying nearly the same speed I was

@vidzforlyf Here is a picture of what happens, I was only going 400kts and the target was around 2km give or take. https://imgur.com/a/WPmsyyQ

@ItsMENightmare, ok, so since then I did 2 things. I changed the drag ratio one the nose to 8 instead of 10 and then i changed the thrust of the booster from 10800 to 13056, because the boosters dont lose weight when burning, like in real life I added thrust to get the same delta V as the real one. I use quality preset high. but yes send a video, it should lose speed its not a long-range missile. so launching at beyond 5 makes it way over lead on fast targets leading it to pull high aoa, leading to high drag and speed loss

If it helps this is the aircraft i'm testing it with https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/yDqakw/Simple-Mirage-2000-Update-V1-1

Also what physics setting do you use?

@vidzforlyf It goes really slow and when the burner runs out it just completely stops tracking correctly, I can attach a video if you want/

@ItsMENightmare could you describe the weird behavior i just came home and started testing but for me they function perfectly as they should, actually better than i remembered.

@ItsMENightmare I'll make one for you no problem, fyi I know you can but it's intensionally done to give it a certain stability at launch. The fins all have lift meaning the aoa at launch makes it come off the rails more realistically.

@vidzforlyf I'm pretty sure you can disable lift for the wings, also this discovery with missiles you made is still awesome. Also I am personally fine with a bigger missile just to make it work.

@ItsMENightmare yeah I know I can't get them not too unless I nerf it's turn performance to crap the thin fuselage gives it small leeway, also lag can make it disconnect or launching 2 missiles close to the same time, because all the magnets update at the same time when one connects. They work most of the time in ideal conditions, buy you can try and mess with where the tiny controling missile inside is, tho the fins upfront should actually have lift as they're wing parts so moving them could make it much worse just from the shear g force difference.

@ItsMENightmare Mostly the IR American missiles

I haven't tested them all, but the Aim-9L is behaving weird for me.

This is FANTASTIC

thats a lotta boom

nice
