Its a great missile within its parameters
within its parameters i agree its good but the missiles overall parameters are quite small which limits its overall capability in game
i think more fox 3 capable mig29s were sold than fox 3 capable mirage 2000
~90 of mig29m+k sold. Idk about legacy tho
Mirages are over 100
india purchased 45 mig29k , 24 (mig29k) russia , egypt purchased 46 mig29m , algeria 14 (29m) , russia 10 (29m), 62 mig29 upg (india) . idk about smt or other variants.
Mirage 2000 was pretty niche compared to MiG-29, MiG-29 is the F-16 of WarPact/CSTO tho
Probably. India has deep pockets. But the multirole capability of the 29 is pretty abysmal
I wouldnt call the m2k niche. Its closer to an f16 than a mig29. M2k has pretty much ran its course and im not aware if they offer the rmdv for export.
Russia is still attempting to keep the mig29 alive despite the fact it doesnt really offer anything appealing to the market.
they dropped the mig-29. i think mig-35 is decent but there is no point in purchasing it over su30/35. however i feel like both mig29k/m , mig35 would be interesting additions to WT. 8xfox3s ,better engines/FM. some have decent/good cas capability. iirc R-37m is also planned to be equipped on mig35. it would be decent in wt.
Dont get me wrong i want mig29s in war thunder more than sukhois lol. Im going to be maining mig35 the moment it hits live.
i hope we get the mig29k. i just want a top tier naval fighter in the tt.
The MiG-35 is a really good jet if you look at its maximum capability (since its a modular plane heavily dependent on customer)
Amongst the 35s features are MAWS, 360° LDIRCM, 8x Pylons (4x ER capable, 8x R74M1/77M capable), A Giant Jammer (estimations point to 3x as powerful as the one found on the SMT, making it the 2nd largest in the russian airforce only beaten by the SU57), a NCTR capable AESA radar and some majorly improved flight performance
What it honestly lacks is Countermeasures like Flare and Chaff.
With a confirmed maximum of 32x and a speculated maximum of 56x its far below anything even within the russian airforce itself.
well at least they are single pop this time, lol
apparently mig-35 can carry 4x r-37ms too,
also do you know if the aesa is gimbaled
