MiG-29 with R73 and R27R instead of the R27ER

Now with the addition of the Korean tech tree coming in and the a North Korean Mig-29 coming in, I think its time to update the mig 29 and remove the ER while replacing it with the R and replacing the R-60M/MK with R-73s. Gaijin must notice that the game has changed and many 12.7s and 13.0s carry irccm missiles now.

Now would be the perfect timing with the separation into 9-12 and 9-13 variants in the USSR tech tree.

Alas, Gaijin still believes IRCCM to be OP to the point they’d rather have a MiG-29 with R-27ER’s and R-60M.

That’s despite them having lowered the F-15A to 12.7 who also has IRCCM.

“Gaijin doesn’t change airframes for balance, ever”
Oh, so ho229, f111, mig29, and su27 are never existed?

All of those were changed due to documents.

mig-29 and su-27 were both changed due to reinterpreting their respective manual.
horton 229, idk

the ho-229 is a prototype aircraft
similarly to the kikka or the yak-141
