I believe the Python 5 accelerated at the end because its trajectory straightened out. Flying a 360 at Mach 1.5 to Mach 2 required a TON of induced drag to get the thing to turn that hard. Once it straightened out she was able to accelerate normally.

@@four-dimensionalperson I don't know... F-35 can only carry AIM-9Xs externally which negatively impacts stealth. I'd imagine F-35 is for more potent (by which I mean probably invincible) in BVR. I think the merge is the only way to make a fight against F-35 at least a little bit competitive, still not that much probably though. So I'd it's BVR where F-35 is pretty much untouchable, rather than fox 2 fight.

[@krostouin]

GS, you can use the 'boresight/cage' HOTAS button to directly control the head of your 9X (diamond on the HUD), without the need of FCR lock. Radar is limited to 60 degrees, while the boresight goes up to 90 degrees, maybe more. Great video !

Interesting thought here, since some types, like the F-22 Raptors, are 100% of the time friendly, bc only the US flies them, I wonder if the Python-5 is currently coded to never engage one?

[@simondan3828]

1. It was great seeing the missile on your channel. Like now the missile has really gone famous. 2. I think the missile has two distinct solid fuel engines, so when the first one burns out, the missile's software decides when's a good time to ignite the second one.
