I think you are right. It’s apparently a PL-5B

The PL-12A are modelled the exact same as the PL-12 on the devserver rn apart from a 40 sec guidance time increase they are literally the exact same missile

According to the radar, the missile flies further. But I haven’t tested it in real-world conditions with players.

I was hoping they would unnerf it since i think its still the weakest track rate of top tier…every other ARH is 60,PL12s is 20 same as the Phoenix…gaijin likes to bend and f China at every turn…

Look at new WS-10B lol, it’s using same exact thrust curve as WS-10A which is not how engines work irl
It actually makes J-10C worse now in turnrate and accel at most altitudes.

Theyve been garbage when related to modeling Chinese top tier lately…

PL-12A currently has 180° launch capability and different time to target tables, IOG has been set to 0 as well.

Anyway;

Thats kind of what i expected but then again why delay the devserver 3 days and not even fix relatively simple things like this

yeah heres a comparision between old and new J-10 and for the most part its the exact same or worse

suspiciously short burn times, man they are going to even make the pl-15 suck lol

Their inertial guidance drift have been set to 0
