The Python-4 is a 4th generation AAM with all-aspect attack ability, and integration with a helmet-mounted sight (HMS) system.<ref name="python4"/> It entered service in the 1990s, and like its predecessor Python-3, it is integrated with the [[Elbit Systems]] DASH ([[helmet mounted display#Display And Sight Helmet (DASH)|Display And Sight Helmet]]) HMS system for Israeli F-15s and F-16s, Chilean F-16s (MLU and C/D block 50/52 plus), F-5E/F Tiger III, South American Kfirs and the SAAB JAS 39 Gripen. The missile's seeker is reported to use dual band technology array similar to that of US [[FIM-92 Stinger]] ([[infrared homing]] and ultraviolet), with [[IRCCM]] (IR ECCM) ability to reduce background IR radiation to reduce the effectiveness of enemy flares.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.sci.fi/~fta/python4.html |title=Fourth Generation AAMs – The Rafael Python 4 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060925143819/http://www.sci.fi/~fta/python4.html |archive-date=2006-09-25 |publisher=Australian Aviation |author=Carlo Kopp |date=April 1997 |url-status=dead}}</ref>
