Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29 Fulcrum - History, Design, Performance & Dissection (Part 2)

gaijin will probably remove emergency thrust since it’s not naval aircraft. But if it is really weighs about a ton less than 29k it will be a huge boost

Quite a major boost. Structural overload isn’t as impactful i guess? MiG-35 can hold up to 9Gs while 29k is 8 or 8.5 iirc

we can now use afterburner for 5 mins on low alt

Honestly, i think gaijin just lovess baiting MiG-29 fanbase.
Like, we had MiG-29 at the start as an absolute close range menace, but then it got giga nerfed.
After that it was literally the saddest 4th generation aircraft in the game, completely overshadowed by every other 4th generation aircraft (We have a hornet at a lower br for crying out loud), well, apart from a Tornado, but this is a Tornado come on, thing is a living joke.
Then gaijin added even brickier MiG-29SMT because get bent, MiG-29 fanboy, this aint Ace Combat.
People started to cope that MiG-29M will surely save the day. And why wouldn’t it? Stronger engines, bigger tail, reduced drag, good avionics, solid amount of missiles and countermeasures… So gaijin didn’t even looked at it for SEVERAL YEARS, and when they finally added it… It was barely an improvement.
Obviously, after all of that people started to think that MiG-29 is cooked and nothing will help it because MiG-29K is heavier, with lower G limits and has bigger wings so it will bleed its energy even faster. And then gaijin released it and made it able to outrate a mfuggin F-2A and win against Su-27SM.
Now watch how MiG-35 will be barely better than 29SMT because we expect it to be good

statshark overestimates the 29K by around 2°/s STR

yeah, this is a nice user-friendly feature, they could’ve easily not care about refunding you SL and RP, but they do so anyway.

i still need to make report for its missing ground and naval tracking ability
