J-15T - Worth It?

More BVR focused? But how? The Drag is massive. Especially at long ranges.

more range and slightly better TT but thats for another thread (plus the airframe of the J-15T isnt that bad for BVR)

It actually didnt get better range. They just increased the Battery life for the PL-12A but also Drag coefficient.

Thats solution as well. I think it’s the only sensible so far.

they didnt increase the drag coefficient but okay they also buffed its motor

It’s actually really good, but the thing is, you have to stay 20–15 km away from other planes to make it easier to notch and to avoid the risk of infrared missiles. After that, it’s a missile bus

afaik they did.

yeah its decent at BVR but in this game you get forced to smaller ranges where it suffers at

no changing that tho

no they did not

Oh you right. Sorry. They nerfed the missiles “autopilot performance”.

It turns out to be a universal problem that only the French and Russians aren’t vulnerable at close range, so focusing solely and exclusively on the J-15T is strange, to say the least

the issue just stems in how everything on that airframe play together

But this is about the J-15T. Nothing else.

The increase in pull is marginal at best and only affects the first part during flight

In some cases the amraam could hit targets that the PL-12A might not as seen here

okay since it was removed:

The J-15T is a bad addition for how the game currently plays

and there virtually nothing that can be done to fix it

Yes, but as I said, the problem is entirely with the missile’s PID

the solution is to fix the values to what they’ve always have been for years before the change

I think giving it the PL-15 would be good.

That’s generally how it is, but I think that goes for all top-tier planes. if they can’t get the aircraft’s armament and avionics right, they shouldn’t put the planes in the game.

Isnt PL-15 like 300km range missile?
