oh another reason for them to not nerf the f16: ppl are buying the premium f4 en masse

Has anyone notice how different physics/instructor behave now ?? It feels like every plane is better and man the F-16 is no longer as good as it used to be from what I tested. The 29 feels better as well overall.
Nope.
F-16 especially C model is still a beast and no Mig29 can stand against it.

There’s been zero changes to that really.
MiG-29 can’t even go toe to toe with a Mirage 2000 rn.

In terms of next steps of MiG-29 variants, would it be the MIG-29M that would be next in line? I know that variant is made using the second generation airframe but how much of a upgrade would that be compared to the current 29s in game?
9.15 M model would be really good in terms of flight performance thanks to better engines and also bein slightly heavier then 9.12.
İt can also carry 8 A2A ordinance and has 4 way fly-by wire system alongside with digital mfd’s in cockpit.
When it comes to radar its suppose to be on par with Yak-141 or should be better i guess.

The naming scheme used here sucks so much. I wonder why they designate 9-17 / 9-19 as the SMT when the 9-15 was the upgraded airframe, engines, hard points, and avionics.
Because the 9-15 was made before the SMT was developed

mmmhhhhh drag
I guess could add MiG-29M 9-15 before MiG-29SMT (9-19R) & MiG-29KR (9-41) and located after MiG-29 (9-13), MiG-29S (9-13S) & MiG-29SM (9-13SM)
Maybe, gajin could add MiG-29M (9-15) before MiG-29SMT (9-19) because armed R-73, R-27ER, R-27ET & R-77 like MiG-29S (9-13S) but never armed R-73M
I guess after MiG-29SMT (9-19) would be MiG-29KR (9-41) in rank IX(9)
Actually MiG-29SMT (9-19) armed R-74M, R-77-1 & R-77M like MiG-29KR (9-41) but gajin not ready consider add R-74M, R-77-1 & R-77M this year
9-15 very much better all based MiGs29 and all modernsations of 29S, only 29K 9-41 same level
Oh yeah, totally the SMT will be a viable threat and even more so soon.
Super excited.
I guess gaijin could add 2 another MiG-29 12.7 BR MiG-29S (9-13S) & MiG-29SM (9-13SM) before MiG-29SMT (9-19R), MiG-29KR (9-41) & MiG-29M2 (9-67)
MiG-29SMT 9-19 increase to 13.0 BR in Q4 2024 or Q3 2025 if gaijin consider R-73M & R-74M replacement R-73 and R-27ER & R-27ET replace by R-77-1
Still having issue with the SMT. Regardless of extra weight any fuel min. It still has much worst Alpha than it should you cannot notch missiles for anything and takes a turn radius as the ASA.

Ngl its still kinda sad that it has export radar instead its real one
Delete the nerf from 29smt and
Wdym by the “real one”?
Mig 29 9.19r used N041R radar that was more similar to mig 29 kr radar but right now it uses export variant of n010m

'The MiG-29SMT (9.19R) has a far more capable fire control system than previous MiG-29s — it features the slotted-aerial N041R radar, similar to that of the carrierbased MiG-29KR and the MiG-35S. It is a further development of the Zhuk-ME fitted to export aircraft, with new transmitters, enhanced software and additional modes. ’
