I don’t know if there is another method but running away from a missile is the most effective solution X)
What I would like is for it to give the real stats to the PL12 while the R77-1 is there, the PL12 is equivalent to the AIM120C (correct me if I’m wrong)
ECM should be implemented imo
Otherwise aircraft like J-15T (which relies on its ECM to survive as it only have 48x countermeasures)
will be very bad to play.
They do, it’s just the photos submitted haven’t been truthful/correct. The JH-7A got it’s KH-29 missiles with photo evidence.
If we can find a real photo of the J-11B caring Pl-12’s on the outer wing pylon, the inner wing pylon (pretty certain the B’s don’t have it, the J-11D’s would), or a close-up of the double pylon mounting like the J-10 uses so we could argue theoretically the J-11B can use the double pylon.
EDIT: digging around, it does not look like it can carry the double pylon. The double pylon is meant for the J-10’s shorter pylon mounting, it doesn’t even use the same mount to mount the Pl-12 that the J-11’s use.
Aren’t the only flankers that have access to 8 or more radar missiles in the chinese tt are the j16, j11d and the su35s? why would the j11b get 8 radar missiles?
Unless we receive the PL-12A and depending on the performance of the PL-8B post update release, I could either see the J-11B being a very good 14.0 or a 13.7 vehicle in disguise, I’m leaning to it actually being a 13.7 vehicle in disguise and needing more potent A2A ordinances for it to remain 14.0.
Give it the PL-12A and maybe update it to a newer Block with restricted weapons selection - we honestly should’ve been getting some J-16 in some Early configuration already by now, and especially when the Eurofighter is already present in the game, Gaijin and their pacing for certain nations is absolute a**.
the J11B is the sukhoi which pulls the most G in turns at 812 kmh it pulls at 35.0°/s compared to the su30sm which has its maximum is at 34.4°/s at 892 kmh
It’s not surprising, statcard thrust is not the actual thrust, at high altitude WS-10A ingame produces 2 tons more thrust than AL-31F.
I also found out that it is slightly lighter than Su-27SM, so yes the J-11B is better than I originally thought.
I did the test with the AL31F on the J11A… the J11B is so much faster at high altitude, I have to fly the entire test flight map to reach Vmax with the AL31F and just half the map for the WS10A
