Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

oh alright, i dont know much about the pl12a so we’ll have to see how it is ingame then

I fully expect the AIM-120D3 to pull worse than AIM-120C only because it should heavier and have more thrust than AIM-120C. So it compresses more due to more thrust while also being heavier.

yea which is the problem bc a rafale or su30sm doesnt have to turn basically at all lol

cmon we close to 10K

a block 52 with the have glass paint job, the squadron that the livery is modeled after has had their F-16s go through the have glass program

So the “better HOBS capability” would be even more useless. Some jokes really write themselves lol

Soon as we get to 10k, then dev-server releases /s

It should be slightly lighter actually as the electronics shrunk. unless im missing something of course.

Unless they gimp or butcher it, absolutely. PL-12AE has a range that exceeds 120 km and is in the medium to long range class of missiles. This is unlike anything else we have in-game currently.

surely

might give me a reason to finish grinding the j10c

I edited the post to say AIM-120D3 and not AIM-120D. and yes while some electronics shrunk, more electronics and fuel were added. You can even see the bulky two-way datalink on the side of the AIM-120D series.

ive wanted to see what the gimbal limits are for the apg 82v1 for the f15ex, but im not sure if theres any documents for it, i assume itll retain 70 degrees like the apg 63v3

I like to bring 120C-5 in planes like my AESAphoon and F-15C GE.

However in my 18E I found like they got me killed more than they helped me.

Isn’t it not gimbaled at all? I thought it was a fixed plate so ±60° / ±70° at best.

why bring them on the typhoon or f15? unless youre doing bvr

If you’re going above mach 1.5 the 120c5 is just better than 120a/b except at point blank.

i heard it was a mix of the f18es radar and the f15cge’s, which are both 70 degrees so im rly not sure
