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

On your part, yes it is. I think this conversation was over before it started.

@wasa850 I’ll probably DM you next week regarding the MiG-29 or F-16 if you’ve got time

That is why I translated this for you. Well not you in particular but yeah.

Hope this information helps.

Are MiG 29’s pylons compatible with Chinese unguided bombs?

Very unlikely

Depend, if you wonder for conventional bomb, then basicly the same, hardpoint drop mechanism is not so hard to modify.
But with the Chinese, they crack J-11 firmware to arm with PL-x series so if they want, they can.

Sure, I have two nice articles on F-16 departures

The monitor on the (non-SMT) Migs is locked to copying the HUD now?

Yeah I noticed this, not sure if it’s a bug or intentional

@MiG_23M

Apperently extra countermeasures on SMT has been changed from Larger Caliber to normal one.

Is this true or just a statcard bug?

50mm

I know its 50MM irl which should be Large Caliber in game.

Either its a statcard bug or flares did get nerfed.

Report it

I need make sure if its just a statcard bug or real one, otherwise report will not be accepted.

Since i cant access to the game files someone needs to confirm it for me.

Not a bug. They updated the HUD for SIM players, which now works fully for using the radar.

So the screen is now its historical HUD repeater.

50mm flares are standard, not large

You sure about that? As far i as know 26mm’s are standart ones.

<50 is standard, only “small” are BOL pods.

Then there is nothing wrong about current SMT’s flare size.

Should’ve been standart from the start in that case.

So it was fixed, cool

Think the main takeaway from this is there should be more than just “small”, “standard” and “large” countermeasures.
