Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29 Fulcrum - History, Design, Performance & Dissection (Part 1)

I would rater be able to keep my speed up while only losing 20% instantaneous turn at most.

You would also gain a lot of extra rate, you would outrate anything that is not an F-16A and a MiG23MLA

Yes, for a moment and then fall out of the sky. Due to the excessive drag and insufficient thrust.

I do not see an issue with the Mig29 being able to defeat the F16 in the first, possible second turn after a merge.

Currently it is not catching the F16 in any aspect of ACM. As much as I love both planes this should not be the case for the F16. The Mig29 should have the initial nose on. It was designed to get its nose on first and the Soviets enhanced that capability with High Off Boresight Missiles. This is where the Soviets should excel.

500км/ч AoA=16.7 Cl=1.1 ищем Сxi=0.2678
500/3.6=138.9 m/s Xi=106589N, X0=0.032*(1.10138.9^2)/238=12903N
nx=P-(X0+Xi)/mg= 134375,418-(12903+106589)/13000*9.81=14883.418/127530=0.116
LE are produced at an angle of attack of 9 degrees or more
That is, going back to schedule 6.4 adjusted for the height of 1000m, we see that nx is positive, which means the aircraft is able to accelerate further

6G

Then yes, it definitely accelerates at 6G

Somewhere the developer missed something. Because the @MiG_23M was tested at 2000m and a speed of 700km / h at 6G and the plane began to slow down, although it should not have

you said 800km/h not, 700km/h

800 speed does not pull, 700 loses

I will now draw up a schedule for 2000m, based on the data and guidelines

At 700km/h it is mostly keeping its speed constant at 6G, perhaps slightly decelerating as @MiG_23M said


2000m 13000kg. Full AB

Nope, the higher the speed closer the MiG29 is behaving to what it should

Is that sustained Ny?

the point is that it shouldn’t slow down

yep

Yes, but it’s only slightly decelerating, while at lower speed it’s struggling a lot more compared to 6.4 chart

Somewhere there is a mistake, or there is not enough traction. Or is the resistance too high

according to chart 6.4 yes, while according to 6.14 no. (6.4 says it should accelerate over 500kph when pulling 5G, while 6.14 says it can sustain only 4.1G at 500kph

Unless one of the 2 charts is flat out wrong, we are not understanding what the charts are about.
Either 6.14 was made using flaps or something else (which is possible, as at full afterburner the aircraft should pull more than 24 degrees of AoA at 300kph, since if it pulled 24 degrees AoA it would just accelerate to 400kph), or 6.4 was made with a much lower weight

It is also necessary that these equations are observed
If 1 and 2 are equal to zero then the turn is considered steady
