Hi,

Checking the Module Stats on the MIg-29SMT it looks like it has the same values as the regular. Yet on Wikipedia I read that the upgraded engine on SMT has 81,4 kN afterbruner thrust which equals 8300 kgf while ingame it’s labelled 7180 kgf lie the regular Mig-29. Did I miss something or calculated something wrong?

Wikipedia isnt really a good source but iirc ppl say it actually has the same engine as the mig 29a

All MiG-29/35s use the same RD-33 based engine. Where people get heated is determining the specifications of each series of said engine.
