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

and what happens when you come from another angle or miss the cables?

Its better than nothing sure but this feature shouldn’t even be a thing from the beginning.

what angle are you comming from so that you cant hit those cables that are spanning the runway

if you arent hitting those you are either bad at landing or you arent landing on the runway

On some airfields cables only work from one side (cable side, not airfield side). I think it was how gaijin fixed cables catching taking off aircrafts

Yes man because every landing happens under perfect condition right? Also including skill issue card is quite funny i must say.

You dont always come back in perfect condition so its natural that you can miss optimal landing angles and speed.

is it really this deep tho? its just a small nice quality of life feature for aircraft that can use these. Nothing to really get upset over lol

Not upset all but this feature benefits only small amount of planes, guess its better than nothing like i’ve said.

Anyway back to the topic, 29KR feels amazing, i feel like im finally flying with Mig-29 instead of brick and haven’t enjoyed high tier gameplay since the addition of Rafale this much.

I think with addition of 29KR 29M became pointless unless you wanna carry R27’s or 8 Fox-3 Loadout.

Tbh they can easily make the 29M relevant again by implementing my countermeasure report on it.

And potentially giving the KR R-77-1 and moving its BR, this would also make them able to implement the earlier 9.31 since as it is rn the 9.31 is just pointless since the KR is held back with its weapons.

It should get its respectable 120CM’s no doubt but i think 29KR deserves to get R-77-1 in exchange for 14.0 br maybe?

Also maybe it just me but engines on 29KR feels like they struggle to breathe and deliver high power at high altitudes?

Nuke the whole generation, literally:

I’m sharing this video here not to spam, because it’s a one hour gameplay flying in a squadron with another MiG-29KR Fulcrum. From what I’ve seen, there aren’t any YouTube videos like this yet, so I thought it would be interesting to have one.

I know some of you might be interested simply because it features the MiG-29KR performing anti-ship missile interception, destroying the enemy fleet, and maintaining air superiority by taking down enemy aircraft in hostile territory near our fleet.

Hope you enjoy :)

77s really are abysmal. Perhaps on account of the premium spam and what not, but finding the only time things are within range that’s worth launching at the team’s been decimated. Most of the time the uptiers you’re put in mean that the other team is defeated before they’re within a distance worth launching.

Turning this on as ASMR.

That’s a pretty big “unless”

9.31 is pretty much outshined by 9.15 in every way. It’s heavier, it can carry the same weaponry and engines, while rumoured to have special take-off mode, won’t offset the increase in weight. As much as I’d like to see it in-game, it is only viable for people that don’t have squadron or don’t want to bother with squadron rp.

Does anyone have that one pic of a MiG-29 with the really weird dual seat that looks like it was taken from a MiG-25?

you mean MiG-29KU? It wasn’t built, only mock-up of a nose section

Yes, this, thank you.


first ace in a 9-15 and 13.7 at this moment is an absolute hellhole.

I’d like this two seater MiG-25 to be in the game, it has quite a unique look.
