I’m not saying anything about it. just that he’s wrong, which is true.
Definitely, prove me wrong ;)
Obviously joking.

In light of the leak regarding the F-5s, I’m also hoping we can get the F-5TH as well. It can get Derby missiles, IRIS-T, AIM-9Ls, and AGM-65B. Japan sorely needs some revitalization, especially for CAS as well.
Gaijin should understand that there are ways to add this sort of infusion to Japan without having to compromise on quality. We all understand that more modern additions will be variants of existing aircraft, but that doesn’t mean they have to be just the same model with different armaments for BR purposes.
The JP/ASEAN research group released a subtree suggestion which I’m really hoping Gaijin takes note of

the F-5TH carry the Python-4 and 5 too and also for ground the Rafael Litening III and 4 israeli Lizard laser guided bombs.

IRIS-T and Python 5 would be too much for now, but I think Python 4 is perfectly fine to add now
I disagree as how do you plan on evading it?
yeah the Python-4 is fine for it it would bring something new but not extremely insane.

In my opinion, the early domestic PLANAF 4th generation fighter aircraft gaijin could add J-11BH (J-11B Blk 2) before J-15
like you try and evade the other missiles my friend or do you think that is a type of black magic? XD

Since WT players are demanding more and more modern stuff, AAMs with IRCCM are simply unavoidable.

Simply Python 4 is not just flare and turn whilst flaring or force the seeker to see the flare
It is near impossible if not impossible to beat with flares
As we stand we can dodge IR missiles given distance and knowledge of its existence
But Python 4, asraam, aim 9x and the likes of these take a lot lot more than flares and fancy flying, most of which isnt in game

You’re not wrong, but players will simply have to adapt. This is the consequence as we move further into the 21st century. Hopefully players will stop getting into furballs at top tier lol

not sure there is an adapting, its essentially a guaranteed kill assuming it wasnt taken by someone else, your best hope is to use terrain
Python 4 and AAM-3 are VERY similar missles. It wouldnt be much if any better, besides without BTT much like the AAM-3 it wont pull its 50Gs only 40 or so

Furballs are inevitable in top tier so long as the matches are 10 v 10 or more. All that changes is where the furball happens.

My point exactly. I 100% prefer using terrain, anyway.
However, for planes that have these sorts of missiles, remember that they will have a high BR. You’ll still be able to play battles without such missiles at a lower BR
Python 4 will hit a target on the aircrafts tail, Python 4 will look at your flares and instead of turning off the seeker like AAM 3 it will just say Nuh uh and track the aircraft anyway because it can differentiate between flares and aircraft
Python 4 will pull around 60Gs in single plane
Python 4 will not miss… unless its modelled poorly
When it entered service in the mid 90s it was just the best IR guided missile
