Not surprised. Update will probably gonna roll out at the end of next week
i remember hearing/reading it was more of a hydraulic/mechanical system limitation not being able to do everything at once. Though could also be that they limited it due to potential tail strike since it extends fairly far down and mig tends to favour heavy aerobraking while landing increasing the risk if it was a particularly spicy touchdown

Ok, 9.31 raised an airbrake on the ground, this means that it is possible to deploy airbrake and landing gear at the same time on 9.15
It is also landing with deployed airbrake at the end of the video

i really like the small details on this airframe. “Klimov” written on the left nacelle,
small diagram with 3 axis on the right intake, symbolising 3D TVC
Gaijin is probably too lazy to program fully 3D controls for the nozzles for a single aircraft in the entire game, so we would never get to fly it in War Thunder
“in a rush” is an interesting way to say about the massive wave of US mains complaining about R-73 being too overpowered to be added into the game

I just dont like how they bonk the flight performance of it. Like bro.
Agile dogfighter flies like mirage F1
Don’t worry, there’s always a way to make it even worse
It was lmao.
R27t and r73 had insane irccm second dev release, they had much harder to flare irccm than they do now.
Tighter gate width made them basically impossible to flare within 3 km
I mean, there was a time when 9L was unflarable rear aspect. And it didn’t even had IRCCM to begin with. Talk about “X being overpowered” is kinda meaningless when we already have Y, Z and about a dozen of other letters being already overpowered and in the game

9l just had tighter FOV back then.
R27t and r73 genuinely were OP, look at those gatewidth values and range band values. Its twice as strong compared to as it is now

actually usable R-73 that isn’t a 1-flare unless you are being very precise with the aspec you’ve chosen? Sign me in!

seeing this just makes me think of all the people that want next gen IR missiles constantly, while also struggling to flare of the current IRCCM missiles we have rn lol
No you see, they want next gen IRs for THEM, not you. That’s completely fair and reasonable ofc.

If you can’t see a problem of something being 6:1 sensitivity for planes:flares instead of the current 1.2:1 sensitivity idk what to say.
You get into range, shoot off your r27t, and it was a guaranteed kill.
It was nerfed by around 5x/ nerfed to 20% of its original ability that’s how strong it was
totally reasonable lol
Sigh… I’ll say it only once. I DO SEE A PROBLEM. But i simply don’t care anymore. This game is unbalanced, was unbalanced and will remain unbalanced. I have zero interest of talking about balance and such, the more broken stuff is in the game - the merrier, i’ll just have fun using it
Are they gonna fix the Mig-29M’s 3D model or are they gonna keep it looking like the 9-13.
