They already bonked Sniper with a nerf, removing new radard with basic MiG-29 one
But the fact that recently a MIG-29 Sustained turnrate report got accepted tells me that they`ll probably change the FM soon
either this or next update
copium mode engaged then, would be good to get a competitive Fulcrum
Im 70% shure we`ll get a MiG-29 premium for russia soon.
MiG-29M 9.15 would be good candidate
I know the 29Sniper
and my bet is we will get a 29 buff soon because of the reason stated before.
doesnt mean we need to get it this update

Honestly I just hope it gets it back or gets better weapons, even more better if they’re western weapons (as it uses the same computing system found on the LanceR)

Definitely would like to see that
would be kinda cool if it wasnt just a copy paste MiG-29A with different RWR.

Jokes aside, I know it’s an abysmal FM, so yeah, a 29 with better flight performance than the SMT and with 73’s would be nice.

I dont have smt yet but i will likely run r77/r27et. i really like r77s
29SMT at least has a good radar and armaments to offset the meh FM
Well, you can definitely feel the extra weight on it, I honestly prefer to run plain and simple 6x R-77 loadout
Extra and single pop countermeasures are also nice
Yeeeah… but you also gonna be fighting other top with their Fox-3s, so not much of the improvements
(I wonder tho, how good/bad things would go with 29SMT in game had R-77-1. Wasnt it also use them IRL?)
I did tests the MiG-29 9-12.
If you open the “practical aerodynamics of the MiG-29 aircraft”, you can see that the 9-12 weighing 14,200 kg should accelerate from 660 to 1020 km/h (350-550 knots) at an altitude of 1 km in 10 seconds, but in the game it does this exercise in 12 seconds. (20% time difference)
Further, at the very beginning, on page 12, acceleration with 80% remaining fuel (fuel consumption 20%) is indicated, acceleration from 600 to 1100 km/h in 13.5 seconds, in the game it does this exercise in 16 seconds.
I did bug report

I do think it’s one of most undeserved nerf…
Like it’s a 29, it already doesn’t have much going for it…
Compared to the F-18 premium, or even the rtx, it’s ridiculous
