Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29 Fulcrum - History, Design, Performance & Dissection

That’s the Mig-29G

You mean the ones in-game that are being hampered / limited already…

I’m telling you, an 11.7 or 12.0 MiG-23MLD with R-73s and moving the 9-13 up to 12.3 with R-73s would have solved these issues. I guess Germanys initial MiG-29 is stuck where it’s at thanks to the addition of the G model.

i agree but i don’t think gaijin will add archers to the 9.13, i’d love if they do, but they’d most likely spam a lot of variants with minor differences to justify researching an entire new vehicle. Without a question the best solution would be what you said.

As modelled, it’s like if they added the F-4E w/ AIM-9Ms and AIM-7Ds. Regardless of what they ultimately do, the current implementation is counterintuitive and frankly awful, leaving all parties on all spectrums upset. I genuinely can’t think of anyone who plays or faces the MiG-29 who is happy about the armament, it pisses everyone involved off it’s actually kind of impressive

MiG-29M2(9-47S) not 9-67

The main problem of the MiG-29 in the game is the low thrust of the engine

Mig-29M would be the best to go against later F-15s, unironically.
Engines from Mig-29K, 2 additional AAM pylons, and still has added fuel.

@BBCRF
Eh… over 16,000kgf combined above 800kph.
For the aircraft that isn’t SMT, that’s above 1:1.

H =0, M= 0, should be higher than now in the game

If the doors were open I’d agree, but those doors don’t open until just before takeoff speed [between 250 & 300kph IAS].

Even when the doors are open, the thrust is still lower than the real one

MiG-29KR (9-41) fitted Tumansky RD-33MK engine better MiG-29M (9-15) fitted Tumansky RD-33K engine but unsure MiG-29KR (9-41) from Russian Navy using Phazotron N010 Zhuk phased array radar like MiG-29M (9-15) ?

Is there any possibility that in the future gaijin might consider MiG-29S (9-13S) & MiG-29SM (9-13SM) located between MiG-29 (9-13) & MiG-29SMT (9-19) but before MiG-29M (9-15) and MiG-29KR (9-41) ?

There is no such designation as the MiG-29KR, there is just the MiG-29K

Tumansky has nothing to do with these engines

I guess MiG-29K (9-31) for Indian Navy and MiG-29K (9-41) for Russian Navy

no

no.Both countries use 9-41

So patch notes say they added RD-33 Series 3 but it is still 10 kgf less than 29G series 2 engines and still name hasnt changed?
