Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29/35 Fulcrum - History, Design, Performance & Dissection (Part 2)

And same 9.15 is only limited to 2 R-27ERs. Now it’s your turn to play 4D chess I guess

Why is it also uses NATO reporting names that Russia does not care about is another mystery

Phazotron director stated that Zhuk-AE installed on MiG-29M 741 is FGA-35? Because I have Phazotron representatives saying that FGA-29 dish will get increased amount of TRM modules to the originally planned amount at stage 2 of trials. Moreover, there was only 2 Zhuk-AE produced and both were FGA-29.

How can we shill this to get the ovt nozzles

Unless you have enough money to force gaijin into making a mechanic that is unique to a single aircraft in the game - i doubt that it is possible

im riding on the technical compatibility bus


here is another ride for you, AL-31F M1 (installed on Su-34 and Su-27SM) with TVC nozzles. Same technology as RD-33MK with TVC.

Also offered for AL-31FN M1 if you are a J-10 type of guy

Technically can be installed on any AL-31 engine, and even other engines as well, because mechanisation is not a part of the engine and is placed around it

I mean… it shouldn’t too hard from technical point? The main issue is actually code-in dynamic thrust changes, but it was already done with Su-30SM/SM2 (even 2 direction), so expanding it to a full 3D vectoring, provided game engine can simulate it all, shouldn’t be hard

Alternatively… 2D is good enough too

It still would require some significant changes. Going from 2D into a complete 3D. And all that work for a single aircraft that isn’t even a premium

To be fair the AGM-88 was crudely integrated into Ukrainian MiG-29s.
There was a video that went over the whole process, it’s kinda ghetto but works.

Tgey literally use pylon adapter with Raspberry or something like that that feeds AGM-88 as a R-27 missile to the FCS. And AGM-88 pretty much launches pitbull style in general direction of the enemy with hopes and dreams that it will lock something

If it was 29SMT or something modern, integrating AGM-88 would be much easier, but for Soviet MiGs you literally have to replace parts of the FCS and radar with new ones to integrate new weaponry

Just gotta introduce premium/event MiG-29OVT/Su-37/J-10B with TVC

But jokes aside - it didn’t stop them from adding Su-30SM in the first place, so I’d argue they can introduce those too

they had no choice, every future Russian addition (outside MiGs) is using this type of engine with this exact type of TVC, on top of export MKM, MKI and MKI(A) Flankers. Klimovs type OVT is only used by a single airframe in the world - MiG-29OVT, everything else was just offered as an upgrade option but wasn’t pursued by anyone
