Brand new never seen in game variant of Mig29G 🤲🤲
Yeah, from perspective of FM stat wise how many times worse it is
The plane is pretty mid, it’s not broken, but it’s not trash either, I’ve managed to maintain a 2.5 K/G in almost 30 matches. It’s not many, but it’s a start.
It accelerates well and has 8 missiles. Literally bus gameplay, the only major downside I see are the countermeasures and how quickly it loses speed, it doesn’t have many and they’re normal, so they’re not very effective, especially when you get uptiered and all the aircraft are carrying 10 or more Fox 3s, so you have to use more than usual. But I’d only play this plane if you like it, because the competition at this same BR is better
its very fast, shame all the speed is gone instantly when turning
I don’t like feet…
So… if i am reading this right, from the merge Mig29M will have same performance as Su27sm for like 30 degrees ~ish and then will lose df at 2degrees/s so assuming same skill issue for both players it would take around a minuite for Su27 to be solidly planted at Mig29’s rear
But Mig29m still somehow has 3m2/s faster acceleration, so the only way for Mig29m to survive is to be always at 800+ kph and attempt to waste Su27 energy turning… Although only up to 3500m any higher and Su27 would have better acceleration…
Just run around su27 below 3500m till he feels tired or your fuel gauge shows zero… Prfb around your airfield for perfect rat experience
Nah it doesn’t work exactly like that cause the su-27 loses less speed when it’s pulling hard which you can see at the top of the chart where the su-27sm enjoys better bleed rates.
So su-27 pulls ahead first turn and gains a bunch of position.
Think of it like old grippy fm where that thing had the least bleed rate in the game where it can gain position super easily super early.
That’s what the su-27 would do to the 29m

I think i know why Gaijin models MIG-29’s so badly.
They looked at Russian Air Force, watched some Flankers airshows and saw more Flankers than 29’s in inventory then assumed Fulcrum must be dogshit.
There guys i solved the mystery, now you will know why Fulcrum flight performance is dogshit every time you fly one of them.

Havn’t played gripen yet (closest one to grind is the Thai one…) What you say makes more sense…
Also according to defyn Mig29m has same’ish rwr deadzones as Su30mk’s, so is Mig29M a sidegrade for 9.19 or does 9.19 also have rwr deadzones ?
That one time German Mig29’s winning in DF against F16 after unification must have been skill issue smh
When you have 2 fighter platforms make the shitty one twice the amount of good one to confuse thy enemy ~ some chinese old proverb

My theory was that some dev lost some family member/friend in a Fulcrum crash or something and spreaded prejudice over entire team - but yours sounds quite more plausible, considering their mental capacity.

Ah yes famous Sun-Tzu quote.
Wait, they have mental capacity?
Thought they were modelling this game based on rolling dice except Fulcrum part, I’m quite shocked tbh.
same rwr deadzones. All l-150s have ±30 elevation deadzones
Capacitors mentioned?
Dice throwing also require some basic mental acuity in reading the dice after throw, they probably have chimpanzees for that.

that’s only cause of HMS r-73. F-16s turn much better and tighter because of much lower bleed rates when pulling hard and better sustained rates.
Actual dogfights f-16s handily beat out mig-29s not including missiles
