okie thanks I may have accidentally forgot to remove my reply to genises1o

it’s for balance, it’ll probably do better in the closer range than the other 2 pl-12s because it retains the old pl-12 flight characteristics but it’ll be nothing crazy for long range but this is just my predictions and assumptions.

The current PL-15 values ​​from the files do not relate to the real missile.

I’m talking about how it may possibly be implemented in game.

PL-15 is not gonna be that crazy as there are no concrete motor stats, the missile is slightly longer but also weighs less then the PL-12AE, so there is a high chance its gonna have less fuel in-game thanks to the smaller weight and Dual-pulse.

So your solution is to ask gaijin to make up a radar that has beyond 90 degrees of gimbal to each side?

So the rafale players can ask for the same, so can the american players, and so on.

It doesn’t make sense man.

I don’t recall the Eagles or flankers having spherical RWR’s or MAWs just because the Rafale and Euros do, it’s simply because they don’t have that luxury IRL.

We have no reason to believe that the PL-15 differs significantly in maneuverability from the PL-12.

KH-29T genuinly best cas for china

its 40G instead of 38G

I just want to know why they can’t send us pl9, even though it’s been sitting in the database for a long time. I’m really fed up with that idiot pl8B.

this is the one based on the israeli hmd right?

To be fair, I don’t think there’s any motor stats for any modern missile lol


Anyways, I was hoping the J-16 would at least get the PL-9C. IIRC it doesn’t use PL-8? I could be wrong, would be nice to have a slightly longer ranged PL-8B.

Spoiler

I say this, but I’m nowhere near the modern stuff in China’s TT xD

it doesnt use either PL-9C or PL-8B

I know, but that doesn’t mean she’ll maneuver like the old pl12

You sure? Could’ve sworn I read somewhere that it did.
