What are the 'maneuverability' specs of the Python. It has more control surfaces so it can match missiles with TVR, however more control surfaces means more drag, more drag results in a slower missile. Or were you just talking from the looks of the missile, which I must say is very Movie Prop type of cool.

I was assuming that the extra control surfaces would negate the lack of TVR in the python and the additional drag caused by these surfaces would be negligible as I think I read somewhere that the missile can travel at speeds of Mach 4+.

And yea it looks pretty cool as well :agree:

Of course my observations are all from a layman's perspective so I may be wrong.
