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

They could’ve added R-73 and make it 13.0 at least, whats the point of using modernized Mig-29 if it cant even use its famous IR missile?

Yeah that would have made it like the Mig-29G at least, it’s just a 0.3 BR difference…

Welp, i dont think its worth to buy it unless you wanna grind Italy with absolute love.

well the main thing its a financial incentive for snail to have a deeper look at the mig29 fm and get on top of outstanding bug reports - similar to when su33 was added and they finally started adjusting flanko. Ofc its still idiotic that it gets the same cringe loadout as the other 29A’s

you have missed quite important point - different radar and RWR

forgot the RWR

rn sniper is just better 9-12 in case of sensors, but at same br
tbh could see removing 27ER, giving it R-73 and 13.0. would be reasonable

yeah the view is so far back haha

Was hoping for 73’s at least, but then again, this is miles better than the Turkish premium F-104

Obviously, this is literal the best upgrade for MiG-29, holy moly, the salt!

Yeah, compared to every other MiG-29 in the game this one is blatant P2W (if you can call it this way because it’s still Fox-1 slinger in a Fox-3 world). Tho i was thinking that Gaijin will give it some NATO weaponry, considering that it was one of the goals for the program. Would be cool to get Lima sidewinders instead of R-60Ms
