yeah 120A got a ~7% weight increase, which with its already underpreforming fin AOA/CL means that it pulls worse at the same speed
AAM-4 apparently so bad its not even on the list.

D tier missile, why would anyone ever vote for it
120A/Bs gained 9kg (from 147 to 156), also, it burn time was nerfed, from around 22000N over 1.7s to 26000 over 1.4s, less total energy than it did before
2nd burn phase is unchanged, but will be impacted by weight.
Overall, its fatter and turn slower, but keep speed better over distance.
Where AIM-54A :(
anyone that doesnt think the french stuff is the best is flat out lying
Hmm still isn’t a direct turn nerf though
Keeping speed better alows it to be faster then before
Yeah, but it gained weight. So it does turn less overall.
Fin AoA or G pull was not changed
The weight and keeping of speed is what is making the turning worse
So, my point exactly?
Still hitting Rafales and Eurofighters so goes alright 14.7 here we come
From what I have its aim120b for f15e and r77 for su34. They can do their job at medium ranges where ir missiles are useless. Idc about long range performance because missiles become easier to notch safely so stuff like early arh dumping in arb will never get you any kills unless enemy is stupid. And in grb/aab encounters always happen at close/medium ranges.
