Agree,gaijin need quickly repair this bug！
In version 2.55.1.80, the PL-12 underwent a change where “missile autopilot parameters have been adjusted, resulting in missiles being more stable on their trajectory.” This change has led to the PL-12 locking onto its rudder at full speed. Previously, it could easily achieve an overload of 35g when launched within 2km（【老霹雳12近距离大过载实例】 https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1UU9UBpEtP 0:34
）, but now it can only barely reach an overload of 30g under subsonic launch conditions（【PL12低速性能疑似回调一点】 https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1gV7W6YESM 0:29
）, and can only achieve less than 25g under supersonic launch conditions（【Gaijin Just Obliterated the PL-12 | War Thunder】https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYroWDXfUVc 2:56
）. Despite players repeatedly submitting related issues, the bug report manager has repeatedly denied the issues on the grounds that “the PL-12 is a medium-range missile, it cannot achieve its max characteristics at short ranges. It’s not a bug.” The acceptance of bowie knife99’s issue is a good sign, as the PL-12 issue has long plagued Chinese players. It is hoped that this bug can be fixed soon

Cant agree more, CN jets suffers for the poor PL12
As a player who has deeply explored the Chinese Air Force tech tree, I have long been troubled by the issues with the PL-12 series missile. I hope that once this report is accepted, the developers will fix the issue on the DEV server — we truly need this highly distinctive missile.
Currently these series of missiles completely unable to use
The issues with the PL-12A and PL-12 missiles have been frustrating many players who enjoy flying Chinese aircraft for a long time. We really hope the developers will address these issues in the next update.
Since May of this year, the overload bug im the pl12 has seriously affected most Chinese faction planes from 13.0 to 14.7,causing a lot of trouble for players and greatly impacting vehicle strength. Gaijin should fix this problem as soon as possible.
