The MiG-29G can carry them according to this source
That says the MiG 29 OVT can carry them, not the g. Though that could be added if you could find more sources about its specs.
I guess the polish F-16AM (Block 20 MLU) would be fine
Question is, would they add it like the French one or the Chinese one
Mig 29G radar can launch R77, it just need ‘minor modifications’ by Gaijing and it will be possible. The J11A carry the exact same radar as J11 but has ability to fire R77, so why does the J11 not have R77 capabilities? Well only the developers know as they have ‘sources’

Radar might be, but I doubt it can without certain updates. Either way germany never had access to it, unlike russia
you ain’t getting Poland or Dutch planes any time sooon
If you lucky you might get a F/A18 stop gap till Eurofighter
it got the updates when it went under nato standardisation but Germany never used the ER
Of course, everything is fine when the needing nation is Germany, if they add Early Eurofighter to em, they should add em to Britain and Italy , but they dont need it! so gaijin wont add Eurofighter!
Its not like when Gaijin added F16s and Mig29s to USA and USSR they left Germany without their respective Mig29, right? of course, if germany haves something, others must have it the moment they get it !
but if other nation gets something germany has and germany doesnt get it. ITS FINE.
they could just add Early Eurofighter again with limited weaponry just to germany, other nations doesnt need an Eurofight right now, and they could add Eurofigter on next updates to em.
If Germany can get vehicles late when all others already got theirs on previous update, why gaijin cant apply the same for the rest?
Germany wasnt the only nation missing a competitive fighter to the f16 and mig 29’s

and the fact that they were Early Eurofighters before Gripen is wild. Yet there are gripens in game

The early gripen was designed to be as cheap as possible, so cheap engine, cheap radar, 6 hardpoints. The eurofighter wasn’t.

Not entirely, compare the radar it first received was about on par with other fighters of its time, the vehicle was made specifically to be locally manufactured instead of importing, and the vehicle needed to take off from short runways and have low maintenance required
Yeah but the gripen took cheap to the extreme. It has a worse radar than an f16a and again, only 6 pylons.
6 pylons doesnt really matter imo, maybe if you dont know how to use your missiles or you’re generally unlucky it might be a downside. Also what radar are you on about specifically are we talking irl game like? Also probably need to move to DM’s as this is off topic
The radar on the gripen sucks ass, and number of missiles definitely matters in a 16v16 game or when trying to loiter in sim.
I mean its a blue vixen its pretty solid, i dont really have a problem with it. More narrow vertical angles but it has a more wide horizontal angles than the AN/APG-68(V)7 Imo its a fair trade off but i guess you could say its worse than AN/APG-66 somehow. Also the Gripen is a light multirole fighter so 6 pylons is fine, sure you could go for more missiles but meh. Guess i just don’t really care. 6 missiles is fine with me.
It really struggles to find targets. Like someone can be right infront of you and and it doesn’t see it at all. I don’t have that problem with my other planes and it really sucks when you try to use it for iff.
I dont really know what to say man, honestly you seem to be looking at the in game version and then thinking that the real life version is bad because in game you think its bad. Its a game doesnt really translate well to irl imo. Besides its probably just a server problem or just bad luck for you when it comes to your radar. Id ask @Morvran he has a lot of experience with it.
If the eurofighter is added now it’ll be added either like the gripen, with a shit radar, or like the su27, as a boat. Either would suck.
