if anything it should be more sensitve to flares because the seeker is getting cooled in the r60m which makes it more sensitive and able to lock targets in front aspect becuase of it
i think for now, the highest br premium gaijin is going to add would be 13.0
also i dont think that the Mig-29S would be 13.7, even with the r-77 because it still has the SPO-15 and the N019 from what i know
Their unwillingness to add modern premiums is weird, as they’ve already done that with tanks.
I wasn’t referring specifically to 29S when talking about 13.7 premiums.
I’m going off datamine values
Well, one of the R-60s physically got stuck in F-15E engine once. If i understand correctly R-60 seeker is actually pretty goated irl
they were able to use the r-60 to lock onto trucks in syria
thats how sensitive the seeker is
I think i also saw reports from Syria that R-60 was pretty good at going trought countermeasures, but don’t quote me on that.
There are seeker performance and range charts for the r60m, it’s really not that impressive compared to its contemporary the 9l
if only they added a proper mig29
agreed mig23 is just the worst plane there is
It’ll likely be a copy paste of the Mig29 sniper. I was hoping they’d release it with the tusk force update. But looking less and less likely. Welp…
what would be sniper copy paste?
What about the Mig-29OVT, the pre-series for the Mi-29M? It was a limited production of 6 airframes, a tech demonstrator and testbed for thrust vectoring engines.
And has an amazing camo job too!

Seems to be interesting, a bridge between good and bad which mostly premium vehicles should be, is there any suggestion to support this addition?
There is an old post for it in the machinery of war section:
It might be worth making a more detailed one in suggestions though. It might be a little early to add, depending on it’s exact performance, but I think it would be a good candidate for a Russian premium in the near future.
The next premium jet for Russia at rank 8. It’ll be a Mig29, 12.7, 2 radar missiles and 4 irccm. So copy paste of the sniper. Similar to how they’ll have 3 f18 premiums, they’ll do the same with mig29s. Italy, Russia, and if I had to guess, China with their temu mig
Sincerely doubt we’re gonna be getting a mig 29 with irccm missiles at 12.7. The ones already at 12.7! got r60ms which are horrendous (including sniper)
They’re the ones we’ll probably get. R60 and r60mk with r27, er1 and t1
Honestly, as someone who has the entire Russian tree, I think there aren’t that many options, I would like the Mig-23-98, but I think it will be some Mig-29 that will become premium, or gaijin could bring something cooler like I don’t know a Su-27UB? Su-27P, Su-37, but I doubt it
Cool for prem +1
