no, R-73 was planned to be introdced with the mig-29 9.13, without irccm, it was screamed back and R-27ER was introduced instead. then it come with 9m

ok, how about Aim 120 C-8
Dechirped Aim-9L? :P
it was a long time ago i cant remember how it went down
but i do know the bad FM is a result of the ER dominance
does the MICA IR also fall in that category? or is it still a maybe?
every time I see Dechirped I think for a second other 9Ls have lil birds in them or something lmao. I work nights Im perpetually tired okay

no, it’s just bad FM code, the mig-29g wasn’t influenced.
nah that wouldn’t make sense because when it came out it was pretty good VS the f16 (the best dogfighter in wt)
Why?
What is IRIS T?
It really isn’t though, like i said the “bad” FM is specifically because the SU-27 was designed for high AOA manoeuvres where as the USAF designs were more focused on energy retention and the SMT has a tonne of added weight which tanks its performance

just give me WWII SPH’s already
German gen 5 IR. Extremely hard to flare, 10-15km range and able to hit targets in a 360° arc around the aircraft. Will be the most deadly dogfighting missile in game.
German air to air missile, R-73 on performance enhancing drugs. Came from the same programme that produced ASRAAM and 9X

You do realise that the 9.12 MiG 29 that was added with apex predators is different from the SMT added with sons of attila right?
I am talking about the release version of the OG mig29 I never talked about the smt
the 9.13 is little worse than F-16A, and the smt was much worse than F-16C from the begining, it’s additional weight and drag influenced too much than it should.
gaijin’s FM code is becoming more and more un reliable in higher speed, that codes isn’t made to fit such modern jets.
yea i was always talking about the OG mig29. i dont know why you are talking about the smt?
What does the og MiG have to do with this? They buffed the F-16 FM but as far as I know the 9.12 is basically how it was on release
i prefer Germany getting that thing first instead of the USSR, because that would mean we dont have to wait a year for a counter.
Like the KH-38 missle and pantsir.
