Most Soviet mains I’ve encountered on the forum are quite happy that now they have their unflarable missile and wouldn’t trade the R-73 and R-27ER to have the right flight performance on the various aircraft, while I and many others in this thread certainly would.
It’s way more satisfying to actually fight and gun down people where your R60M doesn’t connect than to have a thrust vectoring missile doing the work for you
As nice as it would be to allow other potential ordnance for test flights or custom missions but not air RB… I’d like to do some 1v1 dogfights with HOBS missiles.
Well, ping the shills and make fun of them. Stop harassing the hard working people doing the hard work to keep the same standard held across both sides of the pond.
I’ve also got no reason to be biased towards Russian equipment. I’m probably one of the most pro-American people you’ve ever met but you haven’t so much as asked. You just read my name and couldn’t bother making ridiculous assumptions.
1v1 are fun, but air RB right now is not ready as a game mode for HOBS missiles and IRCCM missiles in general, as you can’t pre flare missiles with like 14 or more people. Too many players per match (but Gaijin still claims queues would take too long with de compression when we have instant battles with 16v16) and radar missiles right now are too weak and don’t kill enough people before things get close (staying low to the ground IS a thing (even against the most modern of radar missiles) but at over 150m from the ground inverse monopulse SARH should work perfectly
‘See when my parasocial ingroup makes a propaganda meme its trustworthy, but my parasocial OUTgroup? COMPLETELY delusional. when they do it it’s clear evidence of them being untrustworthy but no one on my side could ever have an interest in misleading me, they would never do that’
What does politics have to do with how an aircraft goes around a circle? Not to mention that the MiG-29 is also the main fighter of the Ukrainian airforce.
the other guy was talking about a meme, not a real thing, what is wrong with u and why are u still here?
you are clearly not here to help with anything related to the mig29, your main goal seems to be to argue with others and insult.
Make your own bug reports related to the equipment you want, with your sources and move on with your life, you don’t depend on @MiG_23M to do all this, just stop coming to this thread and commenting useless things
Is anybody else having a problem with not being able to fire the R27s? The R27ER will simply not lock anything no matter how good of a radar lock it will be, the green circle will just pop up and disappear without locking on to fire. It’s basically made it so I genuinely cannot use the radar missiles whatsoever, also having trouble with firing the air to air missiles in general, I have to press the ‘fire air to air missile’ button multiple times before it will actually fire, even if I have a solid lock. Never had this problem with any other aircraft
here its pretty obvious hes saying that an increase of weight would require more lift (adjust pitch angle) so negative AoA wont be a thing in level headed flight
ok g, i dont care if you think it is right or not, just do your own bug report better than they are trying to do (if you can), with your sources and move on with your life, stop wasting ppls time with your childish behavior here.
I know that’s what he is saying. But his assertion that drag would be less isn’t well founded, and he has thus far being able to prove it. A lighter aircraft flying at the same speed with negative AoA would have slightly more parasitic drag, but also less induced drag (the whole point of the negative AoA is to produce less lift - less lift = less induced drag). If he can find me a single example that proves him correct I will happily eat humble pie, but I’m not liking his chances.
well its pretty straight forward plane is least draggy when its nose is at 0 degree position compared to say negative 3 degree position
if you feel thats otherwise thats cool and you can believe what you want but I fail to see how any of this has to do with correcting the MiG-29s underperformance
Sorry I thought this was a place for mig29 performance dissection, not an echo-chamber.
Like I a few comments showed above, mig23m regularly comes into western vehicle threads and fills them up with rubbish, so you can learn to tolerate contrary opinions in your threads too.
