this is the normal PL-12. they killed the normal PL-12. both PL-12/12A got the turn nerf but only 12A got the range increase and it’s minute at best 3s TTI diff

Hm, wonder if these changes were based on some recent bug report or an older one that’s been on the back burner for a minute
literally nothing. they changed the pull on a random because yes lets screw china even more

You may be able to ask a mod for a reason. Not always will they give a source but can’t hurt to ask.
I don’t understand how the PL-12A got a 16 kg weight increase but only 8.8 kg of propellant added. Do they think the missile has lead inside it now? The electronics sections were literally shortened to house the larger motor with the same missile length so how is this physically possible? If anything, the additional propellant should be more than 16 kg due to the shortening of other compartments but at the very least it should be around 16 kg conservatively.
Also, yet another victim of turning performance being killed in the name of “energy retention” and all that optimised trajectory stuff. AAM-4 will likely fall victim to the same thing if any reports made on it get implemented.

I guess that makes sense, we could get one or two tech tree variants and a premium, that works well I think.
Interesting, I’d love to see what the airframe can do in that BR range!
Yeah no the lack of countermeasures is not something you can possibly want above 10.0
Leave feedback in that thread ^^

Is that a pair of arrows or a happy cute face?

I don’t think exclusivity is a good choice. If this plane could be launched across all regions, I believe its sales would definitely be much higher than if it were exclusive to the Russian region. We really like this plane. 1080p, let us have it.
Oh not the AIM-120 series treatment 🥀
Every time it comes up I do, and every time the snail ignores my hopes and dreams of a Strikemaster armed with more than GPMGs.
Does this nerf include also JF17’s SD-10A?
Yes
yeah… at least US mains can’t complain about the PL-12 being good in pull now because WE’RE IN THE SAME BOAT!!!

Yup, only Russia (and France) can get the funny-enough turning missiles. PL-12s pulling enough to be competitive? What a heresy.
oh god damn it, right when i wanted to enjoy playing the JF17…
china getting beated up like a dog yet again
We desperately need different nuke bombers for 6.7-8.0, neither B29 or Tu4 stand a single chance, at all, you can literally delete both with a few tiny 7.62 bursts
