Feedback / Critique of the MiG-29 (9-12 / 9-13)

That- yeah, that’s the joke. you know, like “I’ve heard enough, nerf the Flanker/Abrams/Ariete.”

I’m just trying to be funny </3

Mig-29 can be 12.3 with the removal of R-27ERs.
Which is something I support.
I’d love for a BR where Mig-29 can dogfight primarily.

12.3 with R-60m and R-27R sounds fun I would play it more often. 12.3 doesnt get as many uptiers as 12.7 right now

When it comes to the radar or more advanced missiles (i.e. the R-27ER if the ER on the base 29 9.12 ans 9.13 are removed, or), gaijin would most likely add the 9.13S or 9.12S in order to keep a MiG with ERs in the game, as they have been adamantly defending not removing the ER in favor of better IR missiles.

The 9.13S/.12S would give the MiG the N019M Topaz instead of the N019 Rubin, allow it to actually and historically use the R-27ER and ET, and even the R-77 as well as the prototype/limited production run R-73M. Another improvement is the increase in AoA pull that would make it more maneuverable in certain situations as well.

I hope gaijin would add a variant like this to the game if they ever removed the ER and ET from the base MiG-29s, as the ERs are quite fun from my expierence in the Su-27 (still grinding thru the MiG line) and it would actually be a better MiG-29 that i presume would sit at 12.7 or 13.0 depending on what gaijin decides to do.

Ask for decompression and better the entire game? Nah, let’s undertier the MiG-29 and make it overpowered.
