Guys has anyone know why Mig-29KR has lower VnE limits than other 29 models?

Folding wings, additional complexity makes weaker than a regular wing, resulting both in lower VNE and G limits

Thanks for the information.

I thought it was the new canopy and extended wing design were the main reasons but then again Mig-29M also has folding wings but doesn’t have the same limitations, interesting.

mig-35 also has the lower 1400 km/h vne as the mig-29k (1470 in game cause 1400 x 1.05 multiplier). Mig-29M 9.15 is the last mig-29 to have that sweet 1500 km/h vne (1575 km/h in game cause 1.05 multiplier)

So main reason isn’t wing folding but something else, i still think new canopy design and extended flaps are the main reason, correct me if im wrong tho.

Interesting, I was sure it’s due to the wing being less resilient to vibrations at high speed, but with MiG-35 being lighter and with sturdier wing it seems like reason lies with something else. In WT it’s still a wing rip cuz gaijin doesn’t bother with such details

Hope you have some GE for this one, stock grind is atrocious with you getting 50/50 matchmaker, fighting SM2s, Rafales and AESA Eurobombers with 2 R-77s is certainly an experience

And it’s a boat without boosters.

Another thing (dunno if its fair for every jet, but i noticed it especially on a MiG-29M) is that without cover and wing mods it is barely supersonic

Considering that the other jet I’m currently spading is the AV-8B Plus, can’t say it’s impacting it much…
Joke aside, I did notice it on the F-14B, particularly when Mach climbing.

I have a few golden eagles left from when I created my account, and anytime I’m a few ge away from an important modification I use them. 300 is alat tho (for me, as I don’t spend money in the game)

Will the mig-29 get its 28 degrees of AOA in the future?

yeah, i usually do the same, this 310 GE is a leftover from my old purchases

I always save my ge to buy crew point because gaijin want me to live hell with a lvl58 crew at top tier and lose control when i pull more than 6g.


finally free from base bombing curse and can be a proper part of the team
