Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29 Fulcrum - History, Design, Performance & Dissection (Part 1)

This confirms all you care about is having “your turn as top dog” instead of having a decently balanced game with decently accurate flight models. Many people here (at least I) agreed that the R73 was not needed in December (and that it was not needed now if flight models were not changed), I also was complaining about the R-27ER when it was added, since, at least before the F-14B was added, R27Rs were good enough when the MiG29 got a working radar.

Again, if you want to have a discussion were you and some other say “Russian Bias” and other respond with “Crying US mains”, this IS NOT the right thread.

No one is perfect and everyone can make mistakes.

Also this isnt his fault, in the past Gaijin was the one who claimed F-16’s doesnt have G-Limiters, thats why he kept saying that, with last dev server we saw that it was actually the opposite in this case.

There is a reason why Gaijin is the real meme in here but apperently you love to take Gaijin’s word or claims seriously when it benefits your ego.

No, just driving the point home so that you all realise your hypocrisy when in a month’s time the mig29 is top dog again with a UFO FM, brand new missile, and the 9M is nerfed into the ground. Because then you’ll all be saying it’s just US mains crying.

@Giovanex05 Btw they declined additional countermeasures for SMT cause apperently its the 9.19R version that has additional large caliber countermeasures.

İ wonder is it the same vehicle that also has better engines or just more countermeasures with same flight performance?

İm already done with your empty claims buddy.

Go to another thread where you can bait someone actually.

As a sidenote, the SMT model they chose was a strange one.

Especially now with the number of flares you need for AIM-9M’s.

Difference between me and you is that i want to see every nation to be competetive while you’re enjoying to see Mig29’s suffer cause deep down its satisfy your ego.

Thats why you’re not worthy to discuss these kind of things.

Also go on and check my comments to see what you can find about this so called double policy.

Strange indeed.

Cause i was expecting a SMT version that has improved engines with additional countermeasures like how they did with Block-50 and Barak-II.

The difference is only dispancers and L-150 RWR instead of SPO-15.

Thanks for the information.

As far as I know all MiG29SMT have the Rd33 series 3, which is just an Rd33 with more service life. The only planes that have the upgraded Rd33k or Rd33Mk engines are MiG29Ks and the original MiG29M

İf i remember correctly i saw an article where it mentioned that SMT did get improved engines.

İts either my memory betrays me or they put the wrong designation for that Mig29 in that article.

You literally just said f-16s are flying around like they are in air arcade. Just because the mig29 has been gimped and the f-16 g limiter removed doesn’t mean the f-16 is inaccurate.

You insinuating the mig29 isn’t competitive is absolutely ludicrous, and highlights your bias.

not sure extra 60 flares will be sufficient in the current 16v16 quake lobbies but SPO-150 would make a meaningful difference indeed. Biggest difference probably will be in the radar, the one we have is the export variant afaik.

So, do you really think Viper FM is accurate in War Thunder? lol.

İt is inaccurate cause current F-16’s can pull 14-16G’s which shouldnt be possible since airframe can only endure 13.5G overload.

Again you’re talking with empty claims without any backup, honestly just quit at this point.

It’s accurate when held to the same standards as every other jet in the game. The g limiter was something nothing else in game had.

You’re aware all jets in war thunder are given an extra tolerance for gameplay purposes? I don’t see you moaning about delta wing migs pulling harder than their stated maximums.

Probably, but still would be nice to have.

F-16’s maximum G overload is limited to 9G in real life, if you take this information and apply Gaijins X1.5 G Tolerance mechanic result will be 13.5G, not 14 or 16.

Again false claims from you.
