the empty weight is 11400 and wing area is 42
My point exactly…
Almost like I’m saying the MiG-29s SHOULD GET IT, same with the flankers and shi too ig.
@Ralin
do you have another source for this image that suggests that the r-77 can be fired above its 55 degree seekerhead gimbal limit?
in my bug report for it in my 29smt i used the image from an old phazotron brochure, but idk why it hasn’t been looked at.
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/jpne3ffDEDVa
the mig-29smt pocket guide also uses this same image, but I am not 100% sure that manual is allowed to be used for bug reports which is why I didn’t attatch it to the bug report.
huh no.
dont want my lovely mig29 to fall in their hand

su-30 with that radar would be cool, wonder which 30 variant it would be
bro…
[/details]
you are late
i dont think the game need it, we already have the enough su30 in soviet tech
and we already have the best su series in china tech witch mlws
but mig29 with this radar will be good like event for soviet tree or israel tree
because shit radar is biggest problem of mig29 in SB

honestly the radar is usable in sb, the thing I hate the most about mig-29 other than stock grind is how it does not want to pull aoa at all unlike the flankers. and the stock grind is terrible.
did i mention i hate the stock grind
no, its not, for use r27er in sb you need more then 9000alt and 1.4m+ speed
but the 90% radars in game cant normally see the targets near ground from these alt
lke even on n035 i was found grippen on afghan map with only narrow scan mode from like 23km
mig 29 is high speed plane in game
Spoiler
fun fact is you check like all top tier planes or ground/spaa
everything is the opposite of reality, like weaknesses are strengths etc
pve is working till 13.0
so you can play
nah the mig-29n is at 13.3 so its just suffering.
IDK why im spading this when I already have the 13.3 fox flankers anyways
best 13.3 flanker is the mig-29smt
29smt just feels like a brick to fly. now mig-29n isnt much better (it can barely pull 10 gs, just look at ts clip) but 29smt also cant roll to save its life. Fulcrums just compress a lot i’ve noticed compared to flankers.
the only good thing about mig-29 is that it gets r-73, which saves its ass in dogfights. Without it, it would truly be useless.
and going to 13.0
when it must be 12.7 even now with r-73

low k hmd r-27er is too OP though, it would be crazy to have that at 12.7. they’re basically at least 1 kill every match. combine that with r-73 it must be at 13.0, 12.7 is too low for 27er and 73 slinger
That’s if we are talking about balanced game. We are playing War Thunder, however. And R-27ER is not that scary. If i can notch them without problem in Tornado ADV, then surely other people can do so in way more maneuverable aircrafts.
nah, r-27er is really is OP in arb with hms, I can see why gaijin doesn’t want to give it r-73s at 12.7. They’re such free kills against most players in the game, which is why statistics for mig-29 are fine.
That’s the problem. And because of the exact same problem, we have much better aircrafts like F-15 at a lower br than objectively worse MiG-29G. Any above “zomber level” player can easily make MiG-29 waste both of his shots and after that Fulcrum has same level of game presence as AI bot

They could just remove them and have R-27Rs/R-73s rather than ERs/R-73s at 12.7 (a loadout that should definitely be 13.0, like the F-15s and F-16s).
I don’t know why Gaijin is so insistent on giving them a missile that causes them to go up to a BR where they aren’t very good otherwise.
