Imo it’s a very good fighter IF you’re at 12.7 br or a downtier, however in uptiers it’ll get absolute demolished.
Unfortunately it’ll take a while for them to adjust top tier BRs, after they started adding 4th gen it took them like 2 years to adjust the BR for 3rd gen and there are still some of these planes facing stuff that they shouldn’t… Hopefully when su-30sm gets added we’ll get some decompression.
An Su-27 had 27ERs when ramming a recon aircraft in 1987 so they were regular issue by then.
Indian MiG-29K
Beluga-29. Kinda exotic ngl
Its probably gonna end up in British Tree.
either will be an event aircraft for the UK or a premium in the future.
Gaijin really limited the indian techtree by making it a Premium/Event/Squadron only stt for the UK
Gajin not ready add the early aircraft pre-order premium in rank 9 until Q4 2026 or Q3 2027, maybe
But depends on gajin only
I Hope that in wt we get the 9-15 mig29m before the 2000s one :/
Off-topic, but I still want to talk about MiG-29. After I while I have unlocked JF-17 Sqd Vehicle, tbh in its Live Battle, it felt like the old MiG-29 FM that can literally turn anything other than any Delta Canards Fighter, especially it share the same engine as the MiG-29.
Does anyone feel the same when first time playing JF-17? Although the BR wasn’t quite fun due to constant uptier to 14.0, I’m having fun on its FM that gives me nostalgia to old MiG-29 FM.
JF-17 is a weird plane, i think nobody ever bothered enough to check if it’s correctly modeled or not but who knows…
I see, then it’s more likely at least by my feel, JF-17 is literally the old FM of MiG-29.
If anyone can bother see the actual FM for the JF-17 I be thankful, especially comparing it to the old MiG-29 FM.
Fun aircraft, but NOT VERY FUN for its BR, it is impossible to get a downtier to 12.3, and most of your downtier goes to 13.0 thanks to F-14A IRIAF.
If we’re going back to MiG-29, the only drawback of JF-17 is the single engine makes the aircraft obviously pull less thrust. If this JF-17 or should I say, old FM of MiG-29 FM be applied back to the MiG-29, it would be a menace for 13.7 (although the CM would be its greatest drawback). This is how I remember MiG-29, the aircraft that can turn anything just like F-16A, not a flying brick.
JF-17 is very light (only 6400kg empty) and wileywalrus shows that in terms of dogfighting capability, it wins against the F-16 Block 15 but loses against the Block 10.
The main drawback is the lack of thrust, newer variants of the JF-17 do get a more powerful engine though.
It sort of has the energy retention of an F-16 at high speed while at low speed the JF-17 kinda has that F-18-style AOA capability, not surprising because the LERX is similar in design. In DCS the JF-17 kinda feels that way as well, JF-17 in DCS actually can outrate the F-16C which is true in WT as well. So I don’t think the FM is too inaccurate especially as WT fighters generally outperform in terms of their AOA and G-limits anyway.
Why did gaijin forgot about MiG-29s? We have Rafale and Eurofighter, F-15E, Su-34. But not even early MiG-29M 9-15, or a later 9-41S.
They decided to rush eras for some reason
I wouldn’t be surprised if the next mig they add is the mig 35
is there a mig 29 with canards ??
I don’t there are any mig 29’s with canards
