I thought MiG-29S Could carry R-77s, no?

Ur right! It indeed can

Here’s a full list of what it can carry.

That plane would probably sit at 13.3 or something like that

My hope is that 2x142 kN engines + Bars radar + Canards + TVC will make it top BR in the upcoming patches and therefore can’t be made into a premium 🙏

Doesn’t AL-41 was usual non TVC when tested on Su-27M2?

No radar but limited WVR Air-to-Air Missile only ?

Or add MiG-23MLD (23-19) to early rank VIII before MiG-29, but could be 12.3

Depends on version but yes. In version UB it can carry 6x R-73 and in version UBM it have expanded armament on the R-27T/ET. Both version still have IRST.

iz. 23-19 is another option. But practically it would not be much different from the current iz. 23-18 except for the R-73. 23P would be more different and there would be no risk that it would grow in BR at the moment the radar was fixed as its practically MLA without air-ground weaponry (except Kh-23M).

MiG-23-98 with R-27 and R-73

And R-77, but it might catapult it too high (still, would be fun to annoy 4th gens with upbeat 3rd)

I don’t know, Su-37 used the Al-37FU

Internal or pod cannon ?

Without R-27R & R-27T ?

None R-27R & R-27ER only ?

I suppose might be MiG-29 (9-12) and on group with MiG-29 (9-13). light airframe like MiG-29 9-12A & 9-12B but early service limit WVR R-60M Air-to-Air Missile

Retain Klimov RD-33 and N019 Rubin radar (MiG-29 9-13)

With the addition of the PKVP-23s, as the total number of chaff/flares was brought up to 72

Sapfir-23P / RP-23P radar and R-23R/R-23T

But re retrofitted Sapfir RP-23MLA radar and R-24R/T air-to-air missiles, no IRST and a HUD display (MiG-23Bis)

The PVO operate MiG-23P & MiG-23Bis did in fact arm them with Kh-23 air-to-ground missiles only

MiG-23P might researchable tree on MiG-23 group or the first premium golden eagle ?

The first variant with R-77 for soviet/russia tech tree

But pre R-73M IR Air-to-Air Missile service ? 🤔

Internal cannon.

Only R-27T/ET. No SARH variant as it doesnt have radar.

Countermeasures are questionable. It doesnt have them irl but thats not a big deal as Gaijin add flares based on posibility to mount them.

For the MiG-29UBM only ?

Both MiG-29UB & MiG-29UBM ?

Both have internal cannon and only UBM have R-27T/ET.

But MiG-29UB limited R-60M & R-73 WVR Air-to-Air missile ?

Yes.

Bug report:

Russian guided bombs incorrect max release speed

https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/GXDSC2gueyO0

Given that the minimum release speed is also given, I assume the 1100 kph figure is IAS/EAS.

This would translate to decreased Mach number on the deck but increased Mach number at higher altitudes.
