Before that gib Indian Su30 and Rafale plz
(they will be powercrept at this rate)
Like how the AIM-120A/B are the best missiles at the moment, the AIM-120D will be king
I am not sure as to why, people earlier on other platforms or here had to think it would be f-16Pobit or whatever, it has to be the EX for a good reason:
Currently gaijin gave many platforms more missiles, like eurofighters and J-10Cs receiving 2+ more missiles than what you would expect and also you acknowledged the F-15C golden eagle to receive more (+4) amraams. Its quite known if you want to survive, the endurance is a main thing, and its why jets like su30sm had existed pretty much fine even after rafale and eurofighter introduction (i was laughing at people who said J-11B would be better, no idea how they thought a 6Arh platform vs 12 Arh would be better).
Anyway, currently 14.3 is crowded with those 12x missile carriers like the Su30sm/Su30MKM/F-15C-Ge/Superhornet. And then theres eurofighters and J-10Cs with 8 arh + 2 ir.
F-16s no matter the type will not be able to compete even with 120Ds.
Simply not happening,
Now if the 15Ex were to come, it would be perfect to sit at 14.7 with 12x Aim-120-Ds. Rather than force pushing a F-16 to sit at 14.3 w 120-Ds

Especially if PL-12A ends up being anywhere close to simulated attempts of its true to life performance. Would out-accelerate, out-range, and out-maneuver the AIM-120D
Thanks to @serasа for the video, although of course take the video with a grain of salt for now.
(Video sped up 2x)

I dont think so, last time I played top tier was probably 3 days ago?
I have no faith in 120D
Already happens btw, lol

To kinda side track, does it feel like missiles are harder to dodge these days? Like i use to be able to dodge them all day a few patches ago but now it feels like you need too be perfect in your notch while spamming 2-3times more chaff.
because radars are alot stronger these days so datalink becomes more potent
This post just proves how the avg usamain thinks
I dont think i can really be called [X]-main.
If it follows the performance of the C but with some better range, i dont think it will be better than A/B for close OBS launches, where kills actually happens. I hope im wrong and we get a better turning AIM-120, but the hopes are low
The X-main accusation always pops out every time someone dislikes an opinion.

i think gajin will need to add something bigger then Aim120D.( I am meaning the shipmissel strapped on a F/A 18 Lol)
It was promised to him 3000 years ago

I think it will be ruining the meta necessarily, but I suspect that the PL-12A will be nasty in particular with it’s performance increase and the number of them on the J-10C so perhaps we might see it among the R-77-1 and the MICA-EM
Can’t deny that it would be fun to see the SH take on the role of the Tomcat as a long range missile platform, but I am not sure how balanced that would be.
