Based upon Harrier Gr7, would probably end up more like 12.0/12.3 if it had Aim-9Ms for “reasons”
ASRAAM and Active Skyflash >:)

They had the best Aircraft for a short while
Germany: MiG-29G
China: J-10
Britain: Phantom FGR.2 (First Pulse Doppler), Gripen JAS-39A
mig 29g aint true. the F-16C was already a thing at the time and better
You are right but the F-16C than had only AIM-7M and AIM-9L. Flight Performance wise the MiG-29G is better than the F-16C and R-73s are better than AIM-9L so I would say at that time the MiG-29G > F-16C
iirc it got aim-9m on the dev server
if i remember right the aim 9m was introduced together with the R-73 in the end and the F-16 FM buff happened as well
At the time the F-16 did already outperform mig 29s
ah right there was something there you could be right
depends
yes the R27er still was the best bvr missle at the time
still overall i would say the f-16c outperformed the mig29 besides bvr
I might hope gaijin increase launch range & lock-range of PL-12 someday
- Lock-range : 16 → 20 km
- Launch range : 80 → 100 km
I don’t worried in the future Chengdu J-10A (Early) & Shenyang J-8F increase max BR
AIM-120C-3 & AIM-120C-4 AMRAAM lock-range, launch range and maximum overload like SD-10A, my guess.
AIM-120C-3, AIM-120C-4, AIM-120C-5, AIM-120C-6 and AIM-120C-7
too huge list.
compare 120C-3 to C-5, bruh
Iirc the Mig 29 had better first and 2nd turn due to not having a G limiter, it was after they removed the limiter the F16 would win everytime, prior they just didnt have the nose authority until they got to about 800-600kph. Then they were held back by the limiter. Without that they could pull just as hard as they wanted letting them have better nose authority.
we are not talking about base mig 29,
but later times when the mig29g was already a thing
when was the F-16 buffed?
I think the F16 got the G limiter removed before the Mig 29G was added. I think they didn’t do any big buffs to them but also never nerfed them. I cant think of them getting any flight specifc buffs or nerfs in recent time.
so like i said,
the F-16 C was better then the mig29g when the mig29g was released
Eh, close up definitely but for BVR no. R27ER was just better, if i stayed high alt most F16’s would avoid coming after me since id normally catch them well before they could. Though close quarters dog fight was essentially a death sentence since you dont have the performance the F16 gets.
Kinda the reason i stopped playing the F16 was just how boring the gameplay meta was for hugging the ground. I know a lot of people attribute the F14 for the ground meta but for me it was the dominance of the R27ER.
Idk with the multi path nerf id say they are more balanced but thats besides the point.
The new gen targeting pod coming to next major update ?
But I might want instead LANTIRN AN/AAQ-14 targeting pod
as i said
