Here it is in an essence: Blah, blah, blah, blah.  Bottom line: start over.  Please stick to pertinent facts.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.157.255.184 (talk) 03:32, 14 March 2016 (UTC)

message: The Operational range of the Meteor missile is only 100km or slightly more, where did the person that edited the infobox get the 300km range from? the Meteor doesn't even have half that range! i think i know how this mistake was made, one of the sources says the Meteor has "more than 3 times the "no escape zone" of the AIM-120 AMRAAM", it says 3x the NO ESCAPE ZONE of the AMRAAM not 3x the range of the AMRAAM!! the range of the AIM-120 AMRAAM is about 105KM, but it's NEZ (No Escape Zone) is only 20km, which means the Meteor's NEZ (not it's range) is 60+km.

replies: text:  The source clearly states 3x range of AMRAAM it replaces, which at time of press (2014) was AIM-120C-5.  The actual range is classified.  The test you refer to says "well in excess" of 100km.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.129.181.164 (talk) 09:53, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: The source does not state 3x range of AMRAAM it replaces, it states 3x the No Escape Zone (NEZ). The radius of the NEZ may be 3x or more than that of the AIM-120C-5, but the NEZ of a missile is not its range, and the relationship between max range and NEZ is very different between a conventional rocket like the AMRAAM that only burns for a few seconds, vs a ramjet / ducted rocket that maintains missile energy. The Meteor's max range will be <3x that of the AIM-120C-5, likely similar or just slightly superior to that of the AIM-120D.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:8003:6412:9D00:2CB8:4E1C:95A1:F1F3 (talk) 15:00, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: In order to have 3x the NEZ it must have approximately 3x the range.  100km is ridiculous, even the AIM-120D has a range of 160km and that uses a single-burn solid rocket motor.  The Meteor is the same size and uses a throttleable ducted rocket using air form the atmosphere.  The AIM-120C-5 has a range of 105km, so 3x that is 315km.  300km is clearly a better figure than 100km.  But range is a very wishy-washy thing that varies with launch altitude, launch speed and target aspect and speed anyway.  All AAM ranges tend to be for optimal releases at high altitude.  Given that fact, 300km is ball-park.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.136.149.88 (talk) 13:34, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: 100km range is ridiculous and the sources state "100km+", but you're missing the other person's point that NEZ is not the same thing as range, and does not scale linearly when comparing different types of propulsion. The No Escape Zone (NEZ) radius of an air-breathing missile will be a greater percentage of that missile's maximum range compared to a normal rocket, because the air-breathing rocket sustains a supersonic airspeed (and its kinetic energy) for a relatively long time. The limitations of lofting against manoeuvring targets also plays a large factor here.Dragon029 (talk) 14:26, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
