Give the mig-29 9-12A/B R-73

Oh no you stat checked me, what am I going to do?

The mig-29 shouldn’t play like the mig-23. It is historically inaccurate to not give it R-73s.

By that logic they shouldn’t have ever added Fox 3’s, irccm or like anything after guns.

you bm’d first.

What are you talking about?

I wonder

There’s a difference between inaccuracy and balancing reason

The BR’s are for balancing, the vehicles should be accurate.

The original reason for them not being added no longer applies, the mig-21 bison has r-73s at a lower BR.

bc it’s needed bc of the airframe being bad at his br

That would be Su-27, MiG-29 is primarly a F-16 and F/A-18 counter. MiG-29 (9.12) was added as a lower battle rating alternative without R-73 as people were asking for such in the past, so MiG-29 (9.13) retained R-73 and radar missiles.

The hmd with R-73s would make it perfectly viable.

The mig-29 has been powercrept, it wouldn’t need to move up if they remove the ER’s.

powercrept ? what are you on ?

The F-15A is at 12.7

and ? Yes it gets more missiles but AIM-7M are worse then R-27ER, same for AIM-9M vs R-73 and F-15 is a brick at high speeds

F-4EJ Kai waiting for it’s AAM-3… Also there is F-15J with same/better loadout on 12.7 (F-4 on 12.3)

this to much Russian vehicles
