Not really, the Su-27 is just mid/average at the BR and its essentially a purely better MiG-29G. I do fine in these jets but can recognize the MiG-29G is on the lesser end of 13.0 jets along with stuff like the 9M only planes

It’s not contradicting to have both an ideal circumstance in mind and also a “realist” idea.
Then explain how I have a nearly 2.0 KDR in the Mig-29G, it’s completely fine
I don’t care how you do in it. I’ve flown almost every jet at the BR.
How people do in it is exactly the thing that Gaijin takes when addressing Battle Ratings. If a 13.0 Mig-29 with R-73s is already doing fine, do you seriously think Gaijin will keep the 9.12a with R-73s at 12.7?

I wasn’t talking about battle ratings and how gaijin decides them. I was telling you what BR it should be considering the current BR compression and how effective it would end up being.

Even if I was, you being one singular person does not define a vehicle. I am much more confident in my educated assessment based on both playing it but also almost every other vehicle that you could call its peers…the only exception to this being the J-8F and the Mirage 4K essentially
Not having 27ER? Hello?
It’s still a Battle Rating, funnily enough it’s the most important part of a plane’s performance in-game and the Devs are the one’s who decides based on the average statistics that this plane has on every player (shocking, I know.) I really couldn’t care less what your opinion is on the current matter, since Gaijin is the one that decides the battle-ratings, and I’m using THEIR logic on why it wouldn’t stay at 12.7. Since like it or not, players like you or me don’t decide what Battle Rating a plane has.
Did it ever occur to you that 90% of my kills were with R-73s or R27T/ETs?
R-27T/R is nowhere near as effective as R-27ER. R-73 are not banned south of 13.0.
Ok, and? IR R-27s have a different (objectively better) playstyle since the enemy never knows you’re shooting at them from 5 miles away. They’re still effective irregardless of what you think.
Since you say you play all the vehicles around this Battle Rating, you should know by now how often 13.0s get dragged into top tier matches, you’d be incredibly lucky to get more than 5 downtiers per hour.
Yes, R27ET is very effective. R27T on the other hand is just alright. The range being much shorter has less of an ability to be unnoticed by you getting closer.
I’ve been playing 13.0 almost primarily lately and I get downtiers or 13.7/13.3 games far more often than I get 14.0 games. In a 13.7 game there can only be 4 13.7s, in a 14.0 game there can only be 4 14.0s. All that said i have no idea how this relates to gaijin not banning r73s just because the BR is lower than 13.0.
And I’ve still been doing this good in a Mig-29G, because the R-73s help it MASSIVELY.
Where are you going with this? I’m talking about the ENTIRE +1.0 Bracket along with other 13.0s that the Mig-29G faces 90% of the time, not just exclusively 14.0 or 13.7.
Here’s a more reasonable balancing idea that doesn’t completely screw everyone over, the 12.7 Migs getting access to 2 R27ETs. Now you’ll be forced to decide between equipping the best SARH or the longest range sneaky IR. I quite like using ETs on the 29G as is

That would be much more reasonable, I also prefer using the R27ETs on the 29G.
No they are not… it has been given 2 more missiles which SIGNIFICANTLY underperform to real deal by 37,5% in range. We still lack IR mica. We have only radar one which can be easily chaffed, lacks significant portion of its range and has HUGE drag and dimensions. Stop inventing and lying.
Yeah, fighting F-15s in the mig-29 is just depressing. I’m also running into a lot of gripens.
I really feel like R-73s aren’t going to break the balance when you already have magic 2s and aim-9Ms in the same area. Since the BR raise it seems you only fight 13.0s in 12.7

I’d take the ET simply I don’t have to get lock on jets that have insane amounts of CMs and some having ARHs.
R-27R =/= R-27ER
Also that’s not even russian nor anywhere close to the right time period
Damn you’re terminal
