Could you do the same for the AIM54 in the Tomcat? SD10 on JF17?

I am with you. You can fire an AIM54 @ 45nm 20k Altitude and score a hit at over M1.5. at the same distance an AIM120C will reach M3.8 (aircraft @ M1) and not go farther than 6nm from your current aircraft. THe missile feels like it has MASSIVE DRAG characteristics. Same with the hornet. Actual F18 pilots say that the hornet feels very draggy in DCS. Same goes for the AIM120C. This needs fixed for balance. The F18 feels useless because of it.

AIM120C needs more than auto pilot rework. They need a huge drag check. An AIM54 can destroy you from 45nm. An AIM120C you really need to be in the 15nm range HOT. If he goes cold the missile will lose its energy and not get to it. As it stands, I think its totally useless against a tomcat.
