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

That aoa button mechanic would be wild, it would be similar to the sweep wings control…

Balance supersedes everything in case you forgot. It is literally why we have R27ERs for the Mig29 and G.

It is why Aim9Js are on any of the Italian starfighters. Except premi

Would be cool but essentially modifying the flight model file on the fly isn’t a thing in-game… Would require a much larger overhaul than you think.

i kinda agree with that but i still think the instructor should not take over the plane that much, you can -control- your turn by giving little taps in the W key, i know it isnt the best way to controll your turn but it helps a lot when you want to keep some energy.

I agree that we should have maybe some type of sensibility related to how much the instructor affects the plane, like, 50% instructor will allow more AoA and will interfere less with the plane’s controls, 10% the instructor will act in extreme cases giving even more freedom to the plane (but this still wouldn’t allow something like pulling the maximum amount of AoA that the plane can)

That’s sad asf

yeah i mean, one thing at a time, fix the main plane that the mig29 faces (most of the time it is the f16) and then try to fix other planes that may or may not be overperforming.

The absolutely do. Why do you think the Starfighter can hit 11Gs? The ASA can hit more.

I do not think they would agree with your conlusion the F-16 is broken. Can I get an official statement?

The F-16 fix likewise requires a FM / instructor revision.

My only real complaint is the performance of the SMT is not present unless min fuel and clean. Which is not technical. It should be able to perform with weapons and 50% internal fuel just as good. I am cool with current Migs for now though I hear everyone’s complaint and agree.

the only test that was conducted was min fuel and clean. Which is irrelevant to us anyway.

Nothing stopped them from pulling that many G’s irl. Even the MiG-25 has done this irl. Stop trolling.

1.5x the safe G limit is possible in the game. There’s no reason the F-104 should be limited when every other aircraft isn’t… That isn’t artificial buffing.

LMFAO you are making things up still?! show me a source where 11gs are possible in the F-104 starfighter omg please.

I do not care about the Mig25. Is it in WT? This dude has to make up stuff just to be right

11g?
17g

Bug report it, but don’t let Ziggy keep derailing.

LMFAO! I was being generous! Now I am derailing by pointing out GJ artificially buffs.

You see what I am working with here boys?

yeah but that was just one thing that i wanted to share, lets keep focus on the mig29s since @MiG_23M said that he will try to make a suggestion for gaijin to improve the instructor of the 29s

That is all I wanted for @MiG_23M to look into it for us. I am happy with that.

I’ll have my infinite fuel and infinite missiles test flight going for us tonight to see what kind of AoA it’s pulling. Lord knows Ziggy is unwilling to do anything remotely helpful let alone his own research.

Or you can test them with combat loads. Probably will isolate the issue.

Nonsense
