Wrong again. First you claim that Python is an AMRAAM (it isn't), then
you say it has been placed into service by the USAF (it hasn't), and
now you claim that the RAAF has opted for it (and it hasn't). Why are
you so hung up on Python, and why can't you get *any* of the facts on
it right? BTW, one country that *has* purchased Python from Israel
is...the PRC.

Wrong as usual.
China don't have the python 4 he talked about.
And as usual you also know you're wrong (its called lying).

I believe Israel sold China the Python 3, which is an old generation
AAM from the 1980s, of no real threat to the US. But the Harpoon cruise
missiles the US sold to EGypt are a very real, lethal threat to Israel.



Harpoons, Patriots...
The Irony is that the Egyptian army has good relations with the
Chinese military industries. China probably already got intresting
parts from those systems to examine at home.

Chile and India use it.
