Are R-27s supposed to be missing from the armament section?
Any plans to make a suggestion for the MiG-29KR?
I could find no evidence of the aircraft ever using R-27s, it’s probably possible though.
Not really, no. Someone else is more than welcome to.

Definitely Astra on the right wing, but I won’t add it to the specs until it’s confirmed to be integrated.

As long as it remains in the British Tech-Tree.
While i love MiG-29s… 32 CMs at top tier would be miserable. If it had more CMs i wouldnt be opposed to it, but since it has so very few, i would rather avoid this one.
The 9.31 would be more preferable in terms of a Naval MiG-29 IMO

it gets 56 CMs iirc.
Oh i just looked at the Original post and saw 32 CMs. Does anyone have pictures of the 9.41s CMs?
Only gets them under vert stab for 29k afaik
yea 56CMs
SMT has larger dispensers fitted. I have looked at many photos but the only dispensers I could see fielded for the 29K in both Russian and Indian service are the 16-count dispensers. Theoretically it could be compatible with the big ones that the SMT has.
On the UPG suggestion, there was mention of Bahart Countmeasure pods under the wings, is it possible for the 9.41 to have recieved them as well?
I’m not really sure. It would require dedicated wiring, so theoretically it is possible but it can’t just be “duct taped” to the plane without any sort of modification. I have not seen any mention of additional countermeasures being considered for the MiG-29K besides in its very early conceptual stage which would have been when it was based off the Soviet-era MiG-29M. The original MiG-29M had internal countermeasures dispensers which doubled the count compared to the normal MiG-29’s, however these aren’t present on the later MiG-29M and MiG-29K.
