Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

Also the SD-10A being mach 5 on the statcard but not the PL-12 is even funnier (not that they actually can go mach 5)

Mreowle

pl12 lucky if it hits 3kmh after launch

huh

its in service

only issue is AIM-260, its definitely moving into full scale production considering budget numbers but there is little info on it

what we really need is dual-plane maneuvering for all missiles capable of it i think that’s part of why so many missiles in game are struggling compared to the stated capabilities

monkey paw curls, magic2 unbeatable IR meta cuz of code tomfoolery

I guess it’s the same with Romania in Italy, isn’t it?

currently yeah AIM-9X is out preforming Python 5 and IRIST in game at least with speed to target, CAMM or (ASRAAM) can be seen showing the speed difference between the four however

What kind of data or evidence did Gaijin use for the previous PL-12 adjustments, or was it just for balance or some other reason (like to reduce the missile’s spin-down issue in the terminal phase)?

Us begging for the PL-12A to be an actual upgrade and apparently too much wobble/instability during flight of the PL-12 (iirc that bugreport is 2 years old)

I’m more curious about what gaijin bases its related changes on. They’ve always asked players to provide evidence before making adjustments, so any adjustments gaijin makes should also have a basis, not be groundless.

You are factualy wrong there lol

this one was made on basically nothing, par that 2year old bugreport on the wobble, iirc the AAM4 had a similar CMtoStab distance as the PL-12 (one of the things that nuked its pull) but doesnt have wobble issues, i think its to do with how they tuned the PID of the PL-12.

the PL-12A motor change was us begging for a better motor since the PL-12AE has literally a visibly bigger motor (also more modern).

the Challengers “combat wieght” is with all the extra armour on not the base model.

And the 2a7v is not with extra armor?
