Damn, some good news regarding the mig29 in like what, nearly 4 years? Better late than never i guess
To my understanding the tldr is:
They produce less lift, but they use the lift they do produce much more efficiently.

Poor thing, at least it’s a bit better
The recent Rafale one is inaccurate. It is being worked on to bring it back to parity.
Which one? Since you said recent I assume not the one that took it from the best dogfighter to like… 8th?
I haven’t information to hand on any report that resulted in that outcome, though if something like that did go through wouldn’t surprise me. Certain souls are hard at work kneecapping the thing, in spite of it being as close as you could expect relative to its nearest competitor.

It was a while ago, like a year plus. Iirc correctly it had something to do with changing the empty weight.
This was my main reason in asking how much the EF was overperforming.
I know the Rafale and EF have a similar lineage and design, for the EF to so handily beat the Rafale airframe wise in game is… odd.
EF should outperform it pretty consistently in a few settings, but Rafale should exceed it in others. Sadly, Gaijin have decided that oughtn’t be the case. They should be pretty much toe to toe in most circumstances. @Macron-Spokesman would be better served to highlight the inaccuracies, though in a different thread.
So many of these difficulties could be addressed by just not exaggerating g limits so excessively.

I expected as much, since that’s what I’ve heard from Raf/EF pilots when talking about eachothers planes. To be fair the Raf has a better ITR than the EF in game, but it can’t sustain it for long and it isn’t by an incredibly substantial ammount.
The Rafale thread, I presume?

Probably, I try to avoid the EFT and Rafale threads like the plague. They’re a warzone half the time.

They’ve cooled down a bit.
The main cesspool now is the BMPT thread.

Feel like that should have been the squadron vehicle and the 29M in the tree
Iirc Yak-141 met serious backlash from community, so gaijin puts prototypes/pre-production stuff in air trees on a side bar.
The community whines about everything
Its also whatever they feel like, there’s no rule about proto’s/pre-productions
