did they give outermost pylons additional spacers? They should have small ones, you can see them on photos

@Smin1080p_WT are there any other balance changes planned for the MiG-29K currently? With it losing 2x hardpoints for R-77s and the ability to use the R-27 family overall. Leading to a much reduced combat capability in its BR range when compared to the start of the dev server.

With the 29K being folded like an omelet and scrambled before the update even drops i can only hope that if/whenever they add the MiG-35 it will at least be somewhat worth getting. Oh who am i kidding it will be added and get the Pobit treatment and end up at like 14.3…

PooBIT treatment would be a reward considering how badly MiG-29s have been getting shafted

Did u make additional bug reports or did they already see this and dismiss it?

why even bother?
it was in my first report
it obvious that they dont want the r27 on the 29k

i guess its gaijins mission to make it as bad as possible

@Smin1080p_WT can you please review this report?

The Bug Reporting Manager is Incorrect. @ron_23 's sources are for the MiG-29K 9.41, not the 9.31.

They avoid replying when they can get away with leaving something in a miserable state compared to documentation.

Unfortunate.

what are the HMDs that the later model 29Ms tested? Topsight and one other thing right?

MiG-29K being nerfed to the ground while still missing a huge chunk of its avionics is hilarious. At this rate we aren’t getting fully capable IRST or HMD.
