The mig 29 that sits at br 12.7 should go down to 12.3 or 12.0. Although the jet has really good speed and maneuverability. its loadout completely sucks fighting against anything at a higher br. Yes sure it gets 2 r27 er’s after those 2 missiles are gone you are basically left with only a gun as the r60m’s will rarely get you any kills. The RWR isnt great at helping you dodge incoming fox 3’s. At 12.0 or 12.3 you will see less fox 3s and your 2 good missiles will not really affect games.
no just no

We can give it R-73.
it shouldnt go down to 12.0 or 12.3, it will be very OP with its current kit. down tiering a plane will only benefit that single plane and ruin the planes at that br.
If youve ever fought a 12.0 in the 29 you’ll know you outclass them in every single way to the point its not fair. Now imagine fighting an 11.3 plane
Thats the exact problem the 29 is facing. 12.7 - 13.7 is soo power crept that the tech different between planes 0.3 br’s apart is like day and night.
29 vs F2
su33 vs Su30mkm
ADF vs F15C
Gaijin needs to increase toptier to 15.0 and move every 13.3+ plane up, then they can balance that br

12.0 with 27ERs is certainly one of the takes on this forum.

different story if i was complaining about the su33 for example. But i really dont think having only 2 usable missiles at that br will be a bad thing.
the only way you will really outclass them is by speed and turning, i know plenty of jets/planes that are good at turning and going fast. Will 2 r27ers really impact lobbies that much? I really dont think so.
And yes i agree compression really will help this plane but it will be a mid jet to its counterparts at 12.7 still. premium hornets get up to 6 decent missiles.
Can change it to 12.0 but with only R-27R. Much more fair.
You can put it at 12.0 with nothing but r60ms

Is the 12.7 F-15C in the room with us?
Pretty much everything at 12.0+ is in a bad spot, but the idea the Mig-29 vs Phantoms is considered a fair fight to you is kinda insane. Though I would enjoy having an aircraft like the Tornado F3 drop down to 11.0/11.3 to compensate
Current BR change had/has that listed, that might actually happen. It was widely disputed, but Gaijin is Gaijin, so…
I think he mistakenly said C, and he probably means the A.
The F15C is the 13.7 ARH slinger, it would be a tragedy if put at 12.7 lol

Didn’t even spot the C instead of A :D
allright. we can test that assumption, I propose a friendly 1v1, you in any 11.0 of your choice, I take my 12.7 MiG-29 ;)
