The plane is fine where it is tbh, you take the loadout you want for how you are playing. i take 2x R-3R’s and 1x R-60, which means i only actually have one less R-60 than the MF, which i take 2x R-3R’s and 2x R-60’s on. you take the flare pod with mixed chaff if you want to try to play altitude with the R-3R’s, and you take the gun if you want to try low altitude dogfighting. The Mig-21 is an interceptor design, and because of the delta wing it bleeds energy extremely quickly in turns, but it can pull some quite tight turns until it bleeds its energy, so if you are forced to, you can get gun kills on manouvering targets fairly easily with a bit of practice with the gun. For the R-3R’s you basically want to use them against things that you know wont have chaff, and exclusively against targets head on. J35’s are an easy target because while they can have chaff, they dont have an RWR, so they will not see you locking them.
lol if you justify spsk being at 10.0 it means you arent worth the time to talk to.
I didnt even say it should be at 9.3
you have 37 battles in spsk, you have no right to speak.
How is it bad?It has decent speed and decent missiles.It may not have a good gun but some practice can help you get better at it.Many planes at that BR cannot chase that thing.Also the thing is it’s a delta wing aircraft,you are not supposed to turn fight people in it.
Your Nick apparently lives up to what you are, Mig-21SPS-K is a great fighter, I have a thousand kills with them and it can deal with any of your BR, if you have two IQ you can beat even one F-8E, you don’t need to carry countermeasures if you know the basics of dodging missiles, especially some 9L (It’s difficult, not impossible), learn how to play and then come and give your opinion again.
I agree, Mig-21SPS-K is a GREAT fighter, it can be a better acquisition than the Mig-21Bis Lazur, great Dogfighter if you are familiar with Migs-21, it has R-13M1 (great missile by the way sometimes being better than the R-60), and still accelerates well
