They will just remove R-77s and put KR at 14.0

MiG-29 airframe really suffers at altitude

29KR vs 27SM at 8km alt

Well, i was comparing aircrafts with almost identical airframe apart from difference in wing area and drag

[Dzhkグ]

One sim game.

12.3 MiG-29 is so fun.

Planned Battle Rating Changes (August 2026)

Vehicle: MiG-29KR Gamemode: Air battles (All) Changes: Add R-77-1 to loadout and BR increase from 13.7 → 14.0 Reason: Give the MiG-29KRs its full weapon loadout, since right now its weapons loadout leaves it without any real BVR weapons with only R-77s and R-73s. So giving it the R-77-1 would make it be able to have a BVR weapon and also make it somewhat unique from other fulcrums weaponry wise

Planned Battle Rating Changes (August 2026)

Vehicle: MiG-29KR Gamemode: Ground battles (All) Changes: Add Kh-31AD and Kh-31PD to loadout and BR increase from 12.3 → 12.7 Reason: Right now the MiG-29KR has the same loadout as other Fulcrums at 12.3 with only the base model of the Kh-31 available to it. Making not really be any distinguishable from other Fulcrums and as a end of line naval fulcrum it should receive its best weapons it can use in game.

Planned Battle Rating Changes (August 2026)

Vehicle: MiG-29 9.12 Soviet, MiG-29 9.12A Germany, MiG-29 9.12B Hungary and MiG-29 Sniper Gamemode: Air battles (All) Changes: Remove R-27ER from its loadout and add R-73 The balancing of the 12.7 MiG-29s are completely out of sync with it having access to the most powerful SARH (R-27ER) at 12.7 and having a extremely poor short range IR missile with short range and a narrow FOV. The better option would be to add the R-73 to fix its poor IR missile issue and remove the R-27ER from it to make …

for this one you can also link this poll i made a while back

[Poll] Remove the R-27ER from the early MiG-29 variants

Currently the early Mig-29 variants ingame are able to carry the R-27E series of missiles, which is ahistorical. The Mig-29 variants entered service before the R-27ER and those missiles were not exported to East Germany or Hungary, for example. This causes a balancing issue ingame due to the R-27ER being such a potent SARH missile and the R-60m being pretty mediocre for the Mig-29’s br. A simple solution to that problem would be to remove the R-27E from both the Mig-29 9.12 and 9.13 variants i…

Anyone tried this little demon? Its so fun.

I have, it’s quite fun in air and even better in ground.

[Panther2995]

Indeed and blue navy custom skin looks so good on it.

[GitGood]

Imagine if the MiG-35 would be the first jet in game with R-37M missiles

[ron_23]

it would be even funnier if we could carry it on the centerline instead of the droptank

[GitGood]

Well, rosoboronexport claims 9 hardpoints, so… we should0 at least be able to carry something like a KAB-1500 there i think

[Panther2995]

Look at what I’ve found guys (sorry for recording author didn’t activate download option).

Lil bro Baka

[GitGood]

Few remaining MiG-29S. And probably not for long because Swifts recieved SMTs few years back

[Panther2995]

Yeah i noticed one SMT on that formation.

Do they also use 156?

[Panther2995]

It was late and my pc was turned off :D

I’'ll keep that site in mind thanks for that.
