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

no, it was mostly service life increase

There was a topic about the engines with charts from other books, and channel loss might not actually be this high

if you increase thrust the mig wont match the sustained turnrate charts anymore

Do either of you have a source for this? Some guy keeps saying they modified the compressor so it should have more thrust. :p

then that guy should provide a source for the changed thrust numbers

also the east german migs had the rd33-2

This is something that can be fixed as well, no?

then you have more drag or less lift

Or more compression at high speed. I am too busy with my job right now to think about MiG-29 flight model, but I kinda want to nerd a bit once I get some free time
