I believe the Thermal Imagining part was for a planned/Proposed Targeting pod, I’m guessing that much at least
“It was furthermore envisioned to equip the aircraft with pod containing an Electro-Optical system comprising laser, TV and thermal imaging”
Yeah that together with the L-150 were probably only planned upgrades, the prototypes probably never received neither the pod nor the upgraded RWR
The only pod I can find is T-220, which is very new, only for MIG-29M2 and MIG-35. Sources say upgraded smt too, but no photos.
Yes
unfortunately not the MiG-29M 9-15
But MiG-29M 9-15 can use the nose IRST for designating ground targets right? Btw how effective is that method? How does IRST even emit laser?
Supposedly its nose can double as a laser designator but saying if gaijin would model that is a whole other question.
This is mig-35, OLS-K is only for mig-35, which has corresponding interfaces
How does it emit laser? isn’t this for IR?
The IRST has a laser for rangefinding purposes. It is probable they changed the laser to be in a guidance waveband, as even as far back as Vietnam it was determined an IRST could reasonably track ground targets. Giving the laser the ability to act as an illuminator is a logical choice in a modernization program.
stumbled on this picture. While not loaded on the wing that kh-25l on the ground seems to be aligned to the 6th pylon. Although it may just be prospective
Unlike any other 29M varients, it could carry a lots of flares instead of 32 rounds
i really don’t wanna play top tier with only 32 rounds of countermeasures
The cherry picking of potentially good soviet/rus planes continues…
bruh your entire existence around the forum can be summarized in shitting on soviet/russian planes + muh russian bias whine lmao
The most catered too nation in the game lol
Shocking how that might prove annoying to someone that owns everything, dynamic gameplay is difficult when so often one nation is handed all the key advantages.
With the R-77 being middle of the road, the rest of the nations have a rare moment to shine right now. Seeing Russia get yet another prototype/limited production vehicle is exhausting, add another T-80 while you’re at it
Idk dude the only thing i see is a grown man crying and whining.
Ad hominem, big surprise lol
Given the disparity between your RUS/US stats i’m shocked you haven’t come to the same opinion, unless you are willfully ignorant, or biased.
Funny how you bothered enough to check my stats, looks like someone’s mad lmao. Big surprise coming from the biggest crybaby ever.
