No, you can’t, Modernization doesn’t make a 3 generation airplane a 4 aircraft. (Unless you’re from India, lol)
And about the r-60 for the MIG-21, all products are 62 (without letters. 60, 60 m, 60k, 60 mk), have one pylon and are not tied to a specific avionics (as in the case of the MIG-23 or MIG-25, for example), which makes them fully applicable to MIG-21.In addition, in some cases, the MIG-21 was exported with the P-60mk (export marking P-60m), which also confirms the applicability of the p-60m to bis.
And what are the problems with BR bis? He is literally on the same BR with MIG-23ML. If you take away 60m from him, then he will go a step lower, which would be quite generous on the part of the Gaijin.
And yes, I would like to speak about the F-14 and other aircraft of the US branch in the USSR branch: we do NOT need this in this game. There is no need to destroy the individuality of the branches of development in favor of balance. Balance can be achieved in other ways. Yes, both in the USSR and in the USA there were captured and bypass-bought cars from other countries, but they were NEVER in SERVICE with these countries.

Well, Technically they did see service with the 4477th Test and Evaluation Squadron , but never destined to see frontline use, many of the HAVE IDEA family of airframes were given cover designations via being type classified so they would not be as obvious. as well as having DIA written Flight manuals for them.

While there is a point to be made about alternative ways to achieve balance, ultimately time has proven that Gaijin has problems utilising them.
It’s the same for both sides.
Only difference is that Soviets tried to keep such things confidential, while US tried to use such instances for propaganda.

British T-90, British Mig-21 says hello
I like how most of his Phoenix kills are premium players or base rushers lol

Why don’t you look some of the previous posts on this subject?
We were already discussing that kind of statement.
Isn’t is lucky then, that F-14 is just within the BR bracket of high BR premium aircraft, which are overwhelmingly piloted by new and unexperienced players.
Tougher with:
Uh ok? I’m not chronically online so I apologize if I didn’t read your comment 40 messages ago.

No need to apologise.
It’s not a big problem.
But you must understand - it also gets tiring, to repeat all the same lines.
Look, I don’t even have to type it, because there was a similar quote few posts up:
Nobody really finds Phoenixes threatening unless you’re a new player. It doesn’t even take that much energy to dodge a Phoenix.
Just take a look at this guy:
A base rusher with a brain and he did this with full rocket loadout and a bomb on an F-104. If the F-14A gets 9Ls it could probably go up to 12.7.

Maybe just made another 14A, like a 14A late.
With all same as 14B, except engines.
But thats will be just different 14B - better speed and turn rate, but better engines overall.
What that short video showed was a proper use of “multipathing”, and not that it is easy to dodge AIM-54 missile.
If he was any higher off the ground, he would have died.
And also:
Don’t worry about it.
With the amount of posts that “Maverick wannabees” have opened, requesting the addition of F-14A Late and F-14D, eventually Gaijin will introduce them to the game.
The F-14B would have a bit more than just an airframe disadvantage lmao
Same goes for all the MiG-21 variants that have to face the F-14s.
Funny how it’s different when you are at the receiving end of imbalance?

Actually - in everything, maybe except missile amount.
Oh, maybe one of the most lacking of technology plane in game
Literally no. The only thing the MiG-21 really lacks in is radar and RH missiles.
F-14D with right implementation will be interesting.
But they cant even into 14B…
