from datamines and statshark, its an actual upgrade.
at least chinese players get to have some fun
You mean you don’t have fun in your over-tiered MiG-29 facing R-77 spam with only R-73s? I thought you people were desperate for it, judging by the amount of demands!

Just play better. If gaijin wants MiG-29 to suffer - so be it. I am just gonna play it and laugh on every Su-30 wallet warrior that i gonna kill with a 9.13
How can you determine if the PL-12A is an upgrade or not, when it hasn’t been datamined yet?

Nice, still have to try the Sabre’s myslef but I heard they are very good gunfighters.
I’m also currently working on the american tree, grinding my way through the F-16C so that I can test with my hands the new Viper in the next update

I am still at rank 7 myself. I don’t have any US premiums to help me out, so we are doing it hard way here. But thankfully US tree is so hand held that there is at least one braindead op plane at every rank for you to use.

Sabres, Panther, Banshee, there is so much of good Korean war era stuf in US tech tree. With F9F-2 i basically got to almost 4.0 K/D with playing mostly with one hand.

I relate, now that I’ve experienced the joy of a talisman plane the grind feels so slow with a regular plane

US premium selection is stacked fr. Meanwhile USSR has whashed Flogger and op Flanker that should be at 13.7 already. Meanwhile there are some very good Fulcrum options for a premium… or tech tree… or event… I am sad again
They shouldve added the MiG29M 9.15 eons ago
This plane is so overdue, its actually impressive how gaijin has managed to completly ignore one of the most historically and technoligically important planes of the Soviet Airforce.
This plane set the basis for almost anything that came after - it was the basis for new avionics and FWB controls and new technologies like PESA/AESA and even TVC

Well, this one is a bit of a stretch. 9.15 did bring FBW, “glass cockpit” with MFDs and digital RWR, but it never had PESA/AESA even in plans. First PESA radar on a fighter jet was first iteration of N001 on Sukhoi T-10, but dropped because of very bad performance. And the next one was N011M… on a Sukhoi T-10M. Same with TVC engines, Klimov TVC on RD-33 came later than AL-31FP. But otherwise i agree, MiG-29M 9.15 should’ve been added somewhere around Fox-3 introduction, probably as Russian flagship armed with them, and not Su-27SM.

In my opinion, the MiG-29M should be a squadron vehicle and the MiG-35S should be the one to top the MiG line.
I might be too optimistic, but I’m hoping they’re halting the introduction of those while they’re working on fixing the flight models of the MiG-29s.
9.15 as a squadron would be quite good, true. MiG-35 doesn’t have S letter btw, it’s just MiG-35 and MiG-35D for two-seater
