I do wish that the Mig-29 9-12a and 9-13 got their R-73s, being forced to play with you balls and hope the R-60m hits is rather excruciating

I’m talking about the fact that Russia is also being limited in its weapons.
The developers limit the weapons for each country because they want to extend the life of the game and they add a little new weapons every update
I myself have participated in lengthy testing of the Mig-29 (GDR variant with Best FM) vs F-16A (Netz) (uncapped by the G-limiter) and the Mig’s chance was a roughly 1/10 chance of winning a dogfight against pilots of roughly equal skill while the Netz I was using had the corresponding 90% success rate in both high-speed and low-speed merges.
It is the opposite for russia actually. The Mig-29 was give missiles it never carried. The SU-27 is given the largest loadout in game with the best missile in game. Their are a dozen soviet aircraft carrying missiles MORE ADVANCED than they could. Meanwhile their are a dozen NATO aircraft carrying older missiles than they should be.
Pure russian bias, from a russian company.
I am against the R-27ER on the MiG-29, but the R-73 would have been more effective than the R-27ER if the developers had added them.
One of the developers has a bias towards Sweden, his name is Dmitry

Russian players didn’t ask for the R-27ER, they asked for the R-73, remember

Then why is the Gripen, and F16 artificially nerfed in performance and turn rate?
They asked for R73… so they get the even better R27ER… Imagine if NATO asked for the Aim-120A and instead got the Aim-260B…
They are not.
The F-16 is actually over-performing in some very important ways.

Sorry, what? Then let the grippen do a cobra and crash like he does in many videos. The F-16 will also crash if it exceeds the angles of attack above 25.5 in real life
This is the most idiotic message I have ever seen in my life.
It would be the equivalent. If they did the right thing it wouldn’t have R73 or R27ER. Since “Aim-9X” is too powerful but R27ER with mach Jesus and 60g pulls isn’t.
Did the R-27ER shoot you down if you were flying close to the ground? Can I take more than 2 R-27ERs?
You can take 6.
Mig-29? I’m telling you about the first time the MiG-29 and F-16 aircraft appeared.
Yeah lmao, the ER was added at the bequest of the American mains whining about how ‘OP’ the R-73 would be if added to a mig-29 upon release, as a result we got the best fox-1 and a lot more whining from their behalf

I’ve been waiting for the R-73 for the MiG-29 for the second year now.

And I am telling you, that you get 6 - 10 of them at the same BR as the F16A and F15A. Give the F15C its 12x AMRAAMs it can carry. Or for “balance” reduce the 27s to just 8. That would be balance.
Pretty much anyone with any shred of credibility will get the same results.
I have gone as far as to test it against one of the few guys that was capable of winning against the DARPA AI dogfight program a few years back. The results were basically the same…F-16 wins against MiG-29 in any style of fight and it’s easy to do.

on a flanker… not a Mig, besides the ‘12x amraam loadout’ is a myth and was a one-off mounting test on the F-15C, it is more applicable to come on the F-15EX but that’s still a way off
