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

How can one test the 9-15 in the dev?

i think we need the mig 21-93 in soviet tech more then 23-98
but 23-98 wilth r77 will be fine at 13.0 after decompression

no.

mig23 will be 10x times better than a mig21.

with the of the 23, you can use the 77 almost at its full capacity in bvr.

not forgeting the 27er

Mig-21-93 has a pesa radar and double the counter measures though, while mig-23-98 is stuck with a miniaturized Zhuk radar and half the cms

Both the 21-93 and 23-98 have a Kopyo derivative (you already know the radar as the one under the Su-39 or in the MiG-21bison), if anything the 23-98 would have a stronger radar

21-93 use Kopye (like Bison, cause Bison is a 21-93)

It uses OSA no?

Slightly different. The Spear-25 has slightly more power.

Maybe in some test version, but originally it was a Kopye.

Yes, I know about that photo.

At least you’re not sure what you’ll get in the game.
