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

Was it? weren’t the 27sm, eagle C and F4 all in the seek and destroy updoot?

Unless you refer to air superiority as well, that was also flanker vs eagle tbf

(And gripen😵‍💫)

Oh yeah, you are right, they wer added in the same update. But yep, back at the time Su-27SM only had 6 fox-3s, AL-31F engines, HMD with 10km lock range and R-77s that were only somewhat better than AMRAAMs at close range, but lost pretty much in every other way. Oh also old scan pattern for the radar which made you pretty much blind

Yeah the damn scan pattern that would’t reset from the top🥲 (tws+ didn’t exist yet rip)

Unironically I think the MiG-25 currently still scans the bottom part instead of restarting from the top

yep, as well as MiG-23

As of today 9.15 is the exact same as SMT

I mean, it’s a matter of just slapping 2 sensors. Unlike MiG-23, MiG-29 and Su-27 have onboard computer, so you don’t need a separate computing module.

They’re probably gonna say technically compatible cause prototype and allat

the devs are using this for acceleration tune
the graphs have an advantage over just numbers

i can put up a report for it if you gimme the doc unless you want to do it yourself

When does the dev close I haven’t been able to test anything yet

tommorow

They also said it would get r77 when it was added

Well yes you do need to attach sources to historical reports. You can’t just point an arrow at part of the cockpit and say “that’s the HMD sensor, the HMD won’t work without it, trust me bro”.

Include some sort of source showing that the HMD sensors look like at a bare minimum.

But it shouldn’t. R-77 didn’t even exist at the time. And Yak-141 was canned before it appeared. Sure Zhuk can be updated to be compatible with them, but i don’t want another F-5C with missiles from the future.
