Yeah and everyone expects that it will be nerfed before patch day, the devs themselves said it should have worse IRCCM than the R-73 and IRL it was pretty infamous for being unreliable

and thats why a lot of people are losing their minds. most people dont look into that. though to be very honest i also feel like there is a little bit of “here have this for these few days so you players will finally shut up” apparently its resistent to the sun too? which is weird

Britain is definitely not getting anything new
Btw does anyone know of an additional countermeasures pod for the Soviets? The only stuff I can think of are the ecm pods.
Asking since I expect 60 flares (30 if you’re using mixed) to not be enough

I’m expecting an He51 with the AIM-9M. Nothing less.

Based on the fact that all of the user/test missions used to demonstrate the Python IV use the Python III visual model (and the fact that there isn’t an actual visual model for the Py4 in the files yet), it’s safe to assume it’s not done as of right now

Yeah, I’d expect it ready by December more than likely, maybe October if we’re lucky though, shouldn’t take as long as the R-73 as I think most of it’s problems were with the thrust vectoring

I sense no chinese fixed wing aircraft this patch. Might as well say hi to the DOA J-10A and JH-7A!

Would love to see the J-10A next patch, finally give the PLAAF some top tier air to work with.

What about the J-11? Would that also be DOA?
AIM-9M…with extra spikes. And bitchin’ Betty of course.
Aw yeah! Legends.
No spikes though :(
all thats left to italy going up in br is F16B all the version of eurofighter and F35. oh boy its not going to be funny waiting for these with the av8b
I mean F-16B Block 15ADF with AIM-9M and AIM-120A/B or even C wouldn’t be so bad
Yes. Its BVR aint that good (proven IRL with some war games in thailand?)
