Planned Battle Rating Changes (October 2026) — Aircraft and Ground Vehicle Decompression

Forbidding the maximum capability of a plane it is not the objective.

But in your perspective why the MiG-29KR couldn’t stay at 13.7? the premium SU-30 are gonna be 13.7 with a better radar and no issues with their engines/oil overheating once you reach the limit time of usage.

They shouldn’t be 13.7 either
They’re just too strong compared to other vehicles going to 13.7

I agree with that, I’ve read in a previous reply in this post a guy asking to move the SU-30 to a higher BR (to 14.0) I hope they take note of that

at 109% you are using standard full afterburner or what would be 110% for everyone else

110% on the MiG-29K is modeled as a short time emergency power

Its what Gaijin wants. Because then they can just ignore all the genuine sensible feedback at the start

Not like they’d ignore it anyways

If they even were able to filter out actual good suggestions (Mirage 2K5F to 14.3) from the slop (like Rafale staying at 14.7)

In what way keeping the KR at 13.7 will make it stronger than any of the 13.7s like F-16C and Gripen? For gripen you might argue that it has 2 less ARH missiles but Viper is pretty much equivalent of the KR. Sure, KR gets 2 IR missiles and gimbals but in return F-16 gets better RWR coverage and higher countermeasures count with missile with better kinematics and Much better supersonic acceleration.

Discarding the Flight performance which comes in handy every 10 or 15 matches or so, KR is identical to SMT in terms of avionics and Useful missile loadout. Its flight performance isn’t like a typhoon nor rafale either.

Still BS that Gaijin has denied hte exact same engine setting to every single other aircraft in-game but keep adding it to soviet aircraft. The Mig-29 is the second soviet aircraft to get it after the Mig-21BIS

It has more missiles than F-16C, better fm vs F-16C better radar vs 16C
it has better radar + missiles over gripen

huh?
MiG-29K is an actual rocket and a dream to fly, MiG-29SMT is a brick (top 10 dogfighter vs completely garbage irrelevant dogfighter)
Very important distinction here man

The difference in flight performance is very significant

It has literally two more IR missiles over the F-16.

Radar gimbals? Yes
Radar Performance? Not so much.

Hence why i emphasised the flight performance. Now try to compare it against F-16C or 27SM at high altitude in supersonic regime.

The missiles also have better warheads and more pull

So everyone who plays the MiG-29KR must waste time moving the throttle manually everytime we want to activate the afterburners?

and then undo the control configs if we want to play another plane that does not have the overheating issue, and if you want to play the MiG-29KR again we must do the thing again and again and again?

afaik the MiG-21Bis does not overheat unlike the MiG-29K will which will fully overheat in a span of a few seconds and take damage

It gets access to combat thrust setting for its AB, rather than just standard AB.

though heat management is hardly a new thing to the game. Harriers have had to do it for years despite being total nonsense

In turn, amraam gets better kinematics and range. FinAoA might be better on 77 but with the current Ace combat physics 120 isn’t really bad either.

It’s literally just scrolling up a tiny bit instead of hammering down the throttle
It takes a second of your time

I would prefer KR over 16C overall either way, 27SM is obviously better there

Which, is pretty irrelevant
range means nothing when I can still notch 1.3s and get within 10km easily

I have not had to change my binds just for the KR at all.

I already had it set so I could use my scrollwheel to adjust my throttle slower

So we must also modify the sensitivity and multiplier of the thing too? cause reaching a specific % if the sensitivity is high/moderate is like a gamble
