We’ve been using the same IR missiles since September 2023, when MiG-29SMT came with R-73. Gaijin just is neglecting air a lot lately.
You can see the elevator controls under the lines to the rudder controls - my main complaint with the controls is that they are modelled as one meaning if one cable is cut, control to all tail surfaces is stopped, which sucks 🥲
More granular modelling and modelling of a additional systems would definitely go a long way to making bombers more survivable without making them pincushions.
If they even just fixed CCIP for them, they might be usable - I have great fun with them when we play Bomber Bulldog in customs
I hope you like PGM500…

Omg I’m in love - Shame we will never have this config in game 🥲
It’ll be sad if we keep getting interceptors as events. Shit should be in the tree, especially with permanent nuclear mode.

Ain’t no way
I tried using them as air to air rockets for a bit, but the spread of the flechette sadly makes that nearly impossible
Suspended your disbelief

the only thing i see suspended here is a r-60
Yeah its a classic Finnish kit bash, like how they got R13M1 working on their Drakens

I already knew about that one, Finland just loves to do that, I guess
Yeah I didn’t, its 01:42AM and I’m coming across the crackpot weapon integrations on the Hawk like the PGM500 and R60

i mean there are Mig-23s with Magics out there
because apparently the Magic just fits onto a R-13 launch rail

Atleast it isn’t the triple rail adapter of the F-14A IRIAF to put on an R-27 that doesn’t work
yeah
imo if gaijin really wanted to give it some soviet weapon then they should have given it the r-73 instead
all iam getting there is that gaijin should just stop adding chinese equipment as a whole then
I can’t be bothered to read that unformatted text, the guy has a cool username tho
