Python 3 = AIM-9M, Seriously?

The missiles are still better than 9L, and the ADF has a way worse airframe

“Way worse”? Buddy it’s only marginally different. And regardless, when you’re facing 12.0-13.0 jets, you’re airframe hardly matters with the missiles you’re capable of meeting.

But unlocking PL-12 is impossible :(
I just have a 16v16 playing with 12 in our team is J-8F, but half of us just died before the first contact
EDIT:

There’s a high chance for 12.3 jets to play with 12.7 or 13.0 now, last 4 of my games is all 12.7+ game

Harriers (and YaK-141) are good dogfighters instead of this flying brick, even have HMD, it will lost in a dogfight with Fulcrums or Gripens

Any bombs or rockets available? Try those. If not, go for the all aspects first. Grind is hell for almost everyone, don’t worry bro stuck with it and you can do it o7


:( all these mods are unlocked before update

Oof you should have gotten the bombs, hey at least you are close to getting the ideal A2A load out

J-8s could only destroy a full base with high drag 500kg bombs and 250kg bombs, but unlock the 500kg bomb is as hard as get the PL-12 if you not unlocked it before the patch

Yeah since you are already almost there I would finish off the PL-12 and the rest of the performance mods

Well as you say that, J8F should go down to 12.0 since it has PL8 and there is no IRCCM capabilities available. I do agree pythons without IRCCM are over rated, but just from its stats many will not agree with this.

I suggested to people that J8 actually has a composite pylon capable of 3 250kg bombs, which could have helped grind if you can bomb bases at level 3. I probably will end up using Q5L as the RP grind for most of the next period.

We should, definitely, BR compression is through the ceiling.

scratch that, netz is at 12.3 without irccm… yeesh. gaijin seriously needs to re evaluate pythons vs aim9m and r73, and magic 2

How many 250s can it bring and also, which 250 is it, 250-3/250-4 or does it have the better 250-2

belly: 6x 250-3/4
2x wing: 1x 250-3/4 or 500-3/4
Also suggest this: 【link removed because of forum bug, if anyone want is search LEGION’s loadouts

Bro can you delete the google docs bit, it crashes the forum and I get teleported back to the start.

@Nuckerball had anymore luck with the PL-12?
I was in that match with you when it failed to hit a virtually stationary F-16 taking off from his airfield.

I was been teleported 3 times to see your reply XD
it’s been removed now, and place it’s name for anyone wants it

you can also take a look between f15j & f15a baz
gaijin seems to think the python3 is also as strong as aam3 xddd

didnt gayjin put US F-16A + 6x 9L on 12.7?

Yes but that’s 6 9L+ 4 7F, not 2 PL12 + 4 pythons. I get PL12 is good, but you get 2 of them and your flight model is not designed for dogfighting.
