Poor poor poor little MiG-29 (9-13)

Not sure about that but im not going to open the datamine for missiles.

Thats like one scenario i wouldnt bother with R-60 launch unless im like below 1km and event then 9L performs almost the same.

R60s have no tailchase ability whatsoever.

With the r60m happens more often than the aim9L, if you time them right when you think the guy stops looking behind to analyse terrain or something else that might caught his attention

For dueling yes, but thats not the only thing that makes the AirRB meta

It’s very apparent if you ever fired both missiles at an angle

I’m not chasing people to DO THIS in the first place because I’ve either radar missiled them or stealth long range IR killed them beforehand in any other aircraft with longer range IR or adequate radar missiles. The only aircraft I end up doing this with at this BR are the MiG29 when I’m out of R27ER and the Mirages to get Magic 2 shots, but the Mirage thing is literally their niche.

I am speaking on the average air RB engagement.

Yes two great missiles is more then fine
Mirage f1c is in the same state and it have two good ir missiles not radar ones
If something the problem is compression in general

Why not? Unless you immediatly go rearm after spending your r-27ers, that’s the fun part

The complaint with the MiG-29 is that its mediocre as all hell because of this fact of relying solely on the R-27ER to do anything at its BR. If it ever had to rely on its IR missiles or its Flight performance it gets stomped on.

This is also a big complaint with F1…

that sounds like something that would put MiG-29 as a competitive fighter on that BR, I’d be happy if they do that

Obviously would move up to 13.0, with the current stat of BR compression adding the r73, removing r27er and call it a day wouldn’t be a good solution. You have the F-16A block15 with aim9m at 13.0 for a reason and that jet doesn’t even have a sparrow

yeah, I just feedback on that and you are right, I can’t see a MiG-21 bis fighting a MiG-29, maybe 12.3 would be better by avoiding the top dogs of 13.7

I did. Never noticed any differences in G pull.

Not just Bis, any 11.0 would struggle.

12.3 without R-27ERs, and just R-27Rs would make for an interesting experience IMO.

That’s just a BR compression issue, and it won’t be solved unless Gaijin puts effort into improving WT.

There is zero need to downtier it. Just do as I said earlier.

I hope you’re trolling

yeah, then F-16s should be moved since the first F-16 has only fox-2s and the second F-16 is similar to the current status of MiG-29 (9-13)

It is too hard to think where to place every plane so that they can accommodate themselves acceptably. since the max BR is 14.0, maybe if they could pull the BR to 15.0, all planes could be placed better. but IDK what is GAIJIN doing

Moved where?
