Dance of Dragon - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 4)

Compare it to the F-4F ICE and Tornado F.3 AOP, then. You may not be sure, but I most certainly am.

Well, another trouble of compression then)
29SMT mustnt be 13.3, along with JF-17. But at same time might be not competitive with current 13.7 jets.

Yes, decompression should happen, but as things are, the F-14D w/ AIM-120s would be better than the MiG-29SMT and JF-17A.

Not really
Only more missiles, but inferior in case of speed/maneuverability(speed to SMT, maneuver to JF-17)
And will have less flares than them

Yeah I’m tempted to buy it, haven’t got either of them so it’s a steal

You aren’t mentioning the fact that the F-14D is significantly more manoeuvrable than the MiG-29SMT, and is faster than the JF-17A, on top of having better missiles than both (with the exception of the R-73, which is better than the AIM-9M). The F-14D is better.

SD-10(PL-12) also better than AMRAAM, because can pull way better, near to be same in kinematics.

It will be medium if compare with them in maneuvrability and speed

Not in game.

In game.
SD-10 has way more pull in close, but less speed at impact by few percents.
Main trouble that on live server it only available on J-8F

It has 3gs more pull, which means nothing, and has slightly worse kinematic performance.

Main joke is in time, for which SD-10 can pull it maximum G and less speed needed for that.
Not just less G

Are you trying to say that the SD-10 can pull 38G’s at a lower speed than the AIM-120A/B can pull 35? If so, so what? They’re not made for dogfighting; they should be used at medium range, where pull matters significantly less.

Yes.

Gives you better pull in close, thats still benefit, matters for boresight shots

Barely being one doesn’t matter.

If that’s what you’re using any Fox-3 other than the MICA for, you’re using it wrong.

Same as slight difference in kinematics)

Depends on situation

The kinematic difference makes a noticeable difference in a lot of situations that most people would find theirselves in. This one doesn’t.

No, it doesn’t.

This gap not that massive, to change anything

It is, sometimes you need to do boresight shot

Not being massive doesn’t mean that it’s not noticeable.

Excluding the MICA for obvious reasons, any that you could reasonably make with a Fox-3 you can even more reasonably make with a Fox-2.

Then just slight difference in course will be more noticeable, than difference in kinematics.

To get single flared, very smart

Please share this mystical method of single flaring IRCCM missiles.
