The differences only come into it when launching them badly, in situations where one can barely make it but the other can’t
Which makes it better missile in the end.
Outcome is still the same, AIM-9M is the worst top tier IR missile at all.
It’s a good missile but contenders are better.

Do you think that would still be the case if they add a completely cracked missile to them? I would expect that you would be swamped with premium spam followed by hordes of the Python 4 carriers being spammed out until its either nerfed or something better is added.
Guess it depends on how many people play X-nation because they like it VS how many just want to play the latest OP thing.
No, its makes them almost identical in practical benefit
No it doesn’t, like it or not AAM-3 is still better.
I like how comparing the aim-9M to another exceptional missile like the AAM-3 is somehow an argument that the aim-9M is “terrible”.
Even if it was slightly worse in practical benefit, slightly worse than exceptional is still exceptional
Aim-9M isn’t terrible because of AAM-3, it’s worst ir missile because of others existence.
You can strawman as much as you want but in reality it will not change the outcome.
Noone’s strawmanning my dude
Says the guy who keep making empty claims.
Try harder buddy.

One thing I don’t understand is this whole “Israel needs the best IR missile in the game because it’d be unique and the AIM-9M sucks anyways” as if other nations wouldn’t be utterly left behind by only having the 9M…
Wait for the Python-5 to come with proper counterparts so we have equal footing across nations. Stop asking for a missile that completely outdoes each current missile in one way or another. The Python-4 may not be the bar-none best missile in the game, but it sure as hell is a jack-of-all-trades, master of none, and pretty damn good at everything anyways.

One thing I might suggest is watching some tutorials for how to use different IR missiles, Defyn has a decent one on his youtube channel
Do tell me, if we skip to Python-5 what would happen to Python-4 in this case?
i don’t care about the copy-paste tech tree, only that the aircraft is correctly implemented in its primary nation. They already got Mavs on their F-15I that shouldn’t have.
The devs have been reticent to implement slant loading to this point, I don’t see why they would for just the F-16.
Either skipped entirely or added to vehicles that currently have fictional loadouts (eg. F-16C/D Barak IIs, and removing Derbies + AMRAAMs) or are missing them from their historical loadouts (eg. Kfir C.10)
Unlike you I already watched it and know how to use each one of them effectively.
If you wanna talk about DEFYN you can check his F-15J video to see AAM-3’s performance compare to Aim-9M.
If you say so
This is people want in the first place.
Anyone who’s asking Python-4 is asking for Barack family, F15I doesn’t need it by any means right now.

Does it?
Except at this point in time there are ZERO counters to it.
Wait for better missiles for everyone, then the Python-4 can be added in between the current Fox-2 meta and the next Fox-2 meta with IIR seekers.
The whole point is that right now the Python-4 would be too much.
