Pic is too grainy to see and I forget, does the MiG-29 have a G-meter on the HUD? Check that and/or what does WTRI say you’re pulling? I seem to recall the devs shooting down a bug report for some vehicle’s turn rate one time by stating that the way the game shows G overload isn’t actually the G you’re pulling, but honestly I don’t remember if they were referring to the red overload text or info pulled from WTRTI.

Both this isn’t a report or like a super accurate final statement

I just tested the performance in general out of curiosity using WTRTI

based on that it pulls way more and sustains more than it should

When i firstly saw the rds37 picture in the news about the event i thought it was the 220 and was like “what the hell are they thinking”

But seriously this event solos air tb, it should unironically stay as a proper mode. I’ve never had so much fun in war thunder, exactly what i expected from ec rb except for the Nukes.

Same lol, the design is kinda similar afterall, but the RDS-220 is so comically big that it needed a re-designed plane xD

Big bomb, big boom.

They do look kinda similar

my only major gripe with it is that both teams just make a congo line from middle airfield towards each other and devolve into infinite head-ons. Can’t find that funny gif with 2 rows of dudes in armor just crashing into each other

IMO what causes the teams to do that is the 2500 b52/tu95 spawn. I think that if they work around some fix for that issue it would encourage people to do other objectives.

Like srsly why should i spend SP nuking airfields if i can just hold for a plane that will spawn super close to the main airfield and instantly win the battle? Ik they can be intercepted but still…

As is, this even is too raw. But cooking it up a bit, tweaking some stuff, and you can pretty much forget about ARB, this shit gonna be peak

maybe you shouldnt take a chart for the performance in a looping and missrepresent it as if it is for a horizontal turn
