Any mig 29 based off the mig-29m model will get 8 hardpoints

… isnt that just a MiG-29M 9.15 or 9.61?
Super fulcrum does in fact make 0 sense
The Super fulcrum is the unoffical nickname of the Foxtrot (MiG-35)
Fulcrums apparently are not forgotten!
Maybe there is a chance that russia finally gets a new fulcrum too.
in WT its unfortunatly such a underrepresented jet, despite being one of the most manufactured 4th gen fighters in the world

On the first post when i looked over the SMT info they said 8 hardpoints for missiles… so i was wondering if it was actually true.
Considering that Italy currently has 0 squadron aircrafs and Romanian stuff mostly goes there… There is a chance. But it’s gonna be what, 9-12A with NATO RWR and maybe Lima Sidewinders? If Romania ever purchased those, Wikipedia says 9M/X are in service.
It could get the magic 2 iirc
Well, considering Germany has 9J on a lot of the aircrafts for “balance purposes”, giving it Magic 2 is not something out of the ordinary. Although it will just make it a different flavour of MiG-29G
Well that’s only for IR missiles, it would still be able to use the r73 and is also able of using the Amraam
I don’t think there is a single confirmed case of AMRAAM being fired from a MiG-29. And Sniper never recieved “new radar” as stated in the sources. So it will probably be limited to regular R-27 kit
Well I don’t mind if it gets it or not, it will probably be a premium or event vehicle anyways.
So it would be unlikely for it to receive Fox-3s as a 4th gen
I mean, the Flanker FM was fixed when the Su-33 was introduced, I really wish they would fix the MiG-29 FM too if they would introduce MiG-29 Sniper.

Ah yea. Hopefully. There’s so many reports of MiG-29 testing from other countries with positive results and whatnot, yet still is lackluster ingame

Time for some love for the good old 29

Not really it is missing a lot of lift at lower speeds, this becomes clear if you try to replicate an airshow of the su30, even with like 5mins of fuel

Well ofc, it’s still missing a lot of lift at low speed, but hey, it’s better than nothing, while MiG-29 still stay pretty much the same as they nerfed it last time.
We can hope ig, there was a bug report on the fm that got accepted recently

I don’t get why Gaijin doesn’t factor in common sense when changing vehicles. It’s commonly known that the MiG-29 is somewhat similar/better than the F-16 in the 1C or 2C or both.

Because they don’t have any of that

Gaijin doesn’t use common sense at all lol.
There’s many vehicles in the game that ended up unchanged in the dev server with a whole host of inaccuracies once they reach the live server.
Gaijin barely discloses the reasonings behind some of the changes they make to vehicles. Since they need to use public sources, they should share what source they used to either buff or nerf a vehicle which would avoid a lot of the confusion.
Because we have absolutely no idea how Gaijin models the flight models of aircraft ingame and what sources they use to do it.
Apparently the Flanker family before the flight model buff was using some data from the T-10 prototype… Which explains why it flew so horribly…
