All the values and ranges I'm using are all calculated relative to the BIS Short Range missile class:

Most of BIS' values for SRAAM aren't much different than the ammo_Missile_ShortRangeAABase class values. So lets assume:

Assumption #1 - With a bit of research you can find that the 'average' range of the real world short range air-to-air missiles (SRAAM) comes to something like 16km.

Assumption #2 - In the armaverse 5000m (5Km) is equivalent to 14000m (14km). The 5000m comes from the max range BIS specified.

Now comes the maths:

(Real World MAX Range) / (Assumed Average Range) = “RangeRatio”

For example the Aim-9M max range is given as ~20km. So:

(20km) / (16km) = 1.25

Now we have the “RangeRatio” we can multiply that by BIS's 5km max range value to give us the 'Adjusted/scaled range' for our new missile.

(BIS MaxRange) * (RangeRatio) = “NewScaledRange”

(5km) / (1.25) = 6.25 (Km) = 6250m
