[Miraz05]

I mean in terms of performance

[Malekitth]

@ZVO_12_INCH

The MiG-29M is not exactly a light fighter-the normal take-off weight is 300 kg less than that of the 9-19 …
If you need a light fighter for aerial combat, then this is the MiG-29SD (9-12 SD)…Slovakia\Serbia\Syria…

MiG-29S (9-13S) & MiG-29SM (9-13SM) airframe lighter MiG-29SMT 9-17 & 9-19 and located between MiG-29 (9-13) & MiG-29SMT (9-19) in rank VIII

@ZVO_12_INCH

I know all this-I wrote about him on the old forum…But this is not in the interests of Snails-they will most likely someday give MiG-29M (9-15 \ 9-61) -against early \ late -Rafale \ EF-2000 \ J-10 …
And 9-12SD can be put on a combat rating lower or the same as 9-19…

I guess after MiG-29SMT (9-19) could add MiG-29M (9-15), MiG-29KR (9-41) and MiG-29M2 (9-67) before MiG-35 (9-61) to rank IX

[MiG_23M]

I don’t think they’ll add this as it’s likely an issue for most other nations as well but less documented.

[Malekitth]

Did you have the chance check out what I asked yesterday?

[MiG_23M]

It wasn’t a leak, just information forwarded to bug reporters who inquired about whether or not it was reported. When I asked about it, I was told it would be fixed already and there was no need for a formal report.

[MiG_23M]

No, could you link it?

Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29 Fulcrum - History, Design, Performance & Dissection

@MiG_23M do you know what the differences are in the game for large caliber flares they added to SMT compared to regular caliber flares? Are there differences in the files? Also, did the IRST on SMT or IRST in general have some kind of CM rejection capability İRL? I find it funny how the IRST lock gets flared easier than the R-73 so i usually have to use radar to maintain lock in dogfights lol

[MiG_23M]

I’m not gonna be at my computer, but if I get a chance I might be able to take a look at the specifics. I’m sure someone around here knows though.

[MythicPi]

99% sure Large caliber flares are 2.5x more effective than regular CM’s last I remember

[candygoogy]

Thats great! That changes are live already?

[MiG_23M]

Yes they are

[Smin1080p_WT]

@MiG_23M

@Smin1080p this true?

I’m not sure which report we are talking about specifically here. Apologies but I answer a lot of reports and cant recall them all from memory alone.

Please feel free to send some links.

[MiG_23M]

I believe it’s on the old forum, gist of his statement was that my reports were being disregarded despite clear evidence to the contrary and the many changes I’ve helped report and get things fixed.

[Smin1080p_WT]

In which case, you would need only to look at the reports in question: Community Bug Reporting System

For those not familiar with the CBR

Means forwarded (accepted) for review.

[ZVO_12_INCH]

There is also an advanced MiG-29SMT (9-20) in India-the local name of the MiG-29UPG (the second stage of modernization with an extension of service life until 2037 has been announced) …
It can be given to England as before by the T-90S…

[oom1992]

I hope gaijin focus add new 2 MiG-29 at 12.7 BR airframe lighter MiG-29SMT and located fill gap between MiG-29 (9-13) & MiG-29SMT (9-19), and 3 MiG-29 13.0 BR for russian before other country

[MiG_23M]

There are far too many variants for them to not add more variations in the future.

[soviet_MoonMan]

What variants could we see in the future that would be overall improvements too the SMT? Besides the Mig-35 that is

[I_Phobos_I]

I hope India get own TT, and JB don’t no one IAF plane
