PL-12 / PL-12A Missile — Report

My bad, if you see above they just try to shift issues when we talking about PL12’s issue
Thats happening all across the Chinese equipments

This isn’t a problem exclusive to Chinese weapons though

Yeah, but when the equipment issues got concentrated in a specific tech tree, which is a problem

Why is the Derby/R-darter so easy to evade? - Machinery of War Discussion / Aircraft - War Thunder — official forum

In this video you see a similar issue. The derby has a tendency to overcorrect ahead of the predicted interception path and then fails to connect.

Same as the PL-12 now having issues with rolling maneuvers because it overcorrects too much and passes too far away from the target in the end.

The derby also pulls very little G’s for some reason, it pulls around 20G at max in optimal conditions and high speeds

Its a bit different that the seeker is fine for PL12 now, seeker continuing track the target but the missile cant due to the “fix” of stablebility of its flight path
but yes why the seeker lost that track under that rate of approch

The M10 will not be broken down by 12.7 mm, while the BR of the M10 is 10.7 while the VT5 is 11.7. … How do you put the two together and compare them and conclude that VT5 is better. …

It is Gaijin’s fault for introducing it at a completely wrong moment lmao.

The LWS won’t help against CAS, but having twice as many smoke pops helps a lot.

Lmao, there is a lot of stuff Gaijin can be blamed for regarding the J-10C.

Come back with the AIM-120 victim complex when a MiG-17 will be able to roll one.

他说你用ai你可以把它简短一点没准就行了

The f35 doesn’t use a dumbbell except for impact testing so they don’t damage a radar silly.

They don’t need new jet engines when they have been producing jet engines that function for a long time, but even then the f15 alone has gone through several different engines over its lifespan.

This is pointless to argue with you all you care about it saying gajin screws over china which isnt true at all.

STILL IN SERVICE THO

Where’s those base points to record impact? like this

It is pointless to argue with some people who living in 19 century

Gajin has dropped the ball on a lot of other vehicles as well when it comes to introducing them hell they dropped the ball twice on munitions for the US in one update, but even then it gave china a new top tier jet thats even more competitive than the J11B which was decently competitive against anything that wasnt the rafale or SU-30SM2.

Yeah Smokes be gucci these days if only they’d fix just stop with the cas.

How is gajin to blame with the J10C they gave it the engine it used, they gave it the weapons it used and they gave it the rwr it used, its on the weaker side but this is a light fighter in a missile spam meta.

I’ve been hitting targets pretty well with the J11B so idk if a mig-17 could really out roll it unless they have already bleed the thing of energy.

You can literally see all the tapes and ropes and shit on it to designated its for testing lmao.

See, it is pointless to argue with him

WHERE IS THE BASE DATA POINTS IF IT IS A TeST?

As an engineering I need a reference to analyse, but where
Oh, must in my mind, I can do FEA by my pen and calculate over entire platform

What? They drop the thing to see if the landing gears and structure of the plane can withstand an impact under certain conditions why would they need to see how much force it hit the ground with they already know how much force its going to hit the ground with.

  1. There is videos of it being outrolled in a MIG-17 at like 7km
  2. Only the first and/or second batch of J-10C’s uses Al-31 all otherones use WS-10s as the PLAAF has switched completely to WS-10 for the most part (PLANAF hasnt)

So where’s the MEASUREMENT TOOOOOOOOOOLS?

It is pointless to speak with someone completely has no idea with what is engineering

Right and you can blame gajin for not calling it an Early version of the aircraft but it is still using a engine that is/ was found on the aircraft.

To measure what? You slam it off the ground then look at the structure of the plane and the landing gears to see how much damage it took from the impact.

Could argue the same about the 220 on the F-15E when it was introduced but this is missing the point, the pl-12 should not perform the way it is rn
