Mig-29KR (9-41R) CAS capability KH-38 AGM

There are a few problems with the Mig-29KR’s loadout for example it not having r-77-1 or the kh-31pd but it istnt only missing those i suddgest that the KH-38 would get added as there are books that talk about the develpoment of the Mig-29s and their upgrades over the years one of those books is: Famous Russian Aircraft: Mikoyan MiG-29 (Yefim Gordon and Dmitry Komissarov). From what i’ve read it talks about it having all those specified armaments.

There is a bug report for the R-77-1, go see if there is for the KH-38 and if not make a big report about the missing armament

The only MiG mentioned in the Kh-38 brochure is the MiG-35.

Theoretically it could be argued since the 35 is a 9.41, and the KR is a 9.41, then the KR could use Kh-38s. That’s what @Balta779517-live did to get the Extra UV-5 CMs on the KR.

I dunno if Gaijin would be convinced that it could use Kh-38s from just that tho.

…more KH-38 spam…

yeah kinda forgot abt that part xd

Gaijin nerfed the MiG-29KR to MiG-29K 9.31 standard instead of just adding the 9.31

Unironically would’ve been a buff.

x8 R-77s with R-27 compatibility.

Heavier with less thrust and weaker FM tho

True, but I assume he meant Armament wise.

KR Flight model is one of the best in the game.

8 R-77s is definitely not better than 6 R-77-1s and a pair of R-73s, and that’s not even taking into account missiles like the R-77M or R-74M that aren’t in game but the MiG-29KR can carry.
Also, the MiG-29KR should have R-27 compatibility- (MiG brochure)


Plus of course the A2G/S ordinance, whether that’s Kh-31Ds or Kh-35s or Kh-38s or Kh-59s

yeah we tried that already and was told it was for the 9.31 lmao

I know.

There was a large dispute about this. For some reason Gaijin thinks the 9.41 brochure you posted is for the 9.31.

Gaijin refused R-77-1 for balance reasons. If it were 9.31 standard we would have more R-77s.

We don’t have any proof of this. R-77M has only been seen on MiG-31, Su-57, and Su-35S.

We are missing these.

These have never been advertised with MiG-29K.

MAKS 2009, MiG-29K 9.41 w/ Kh-38s

Ah yes, aircraft 941 is definitely a 9.31 and not a 9.41 lmao

gaijins infinite wisdom never fails to amaze us

i would like to see that but we would need a primary source paper saying its possible or a picture of a 9.41 actually carrying one

Example with this was not valid for them to keep the R-27

Huh. That’s odd.

I mean the Kh-38 is compatible with the MiG-35, which is a 9.41 airframe.

I wonder if that image is similar to the one you posted of a MiG-29M painted like a MiG-35 carrying R-27s?

It was already rejected based on that
