Better flight performance and severe weight reduction. It has the same avionics.
It’s avionics are a million times worse, MiG-29S uses the same avionics as the MiG-29N already in game

We are actualy getting MiG-29 9-13S as 9-13 will be upgraded by R-73 and R-27ET.
Has it been seen in the data mines?
Current 9-13 will be basically transformed to 9-13S by adding R-27ET. Standard 9-13 never had them. It was on dev server.

I guess yeah, but it’s still missing R-77 capabilities and N019M radar to be called an 9-13S it’s more just a 9-13 Frankenstein model
Both 9-12 and 9-13 are practically pretty much Frankenstein. But tbh idk if full potential 9-13S would be better than SMT. Worse avionic and less CM + as I read on 9-13S was reinforced construction compared to 9-13 so more then 1 ton increase of weight.
9-13 and 9-13S both have an empty weight of 11200kg
Yeah its possible. One my source could be confused. Still avionic and CM would be much worse. And dont forget that there is squadron iz. 9-15 in files.
Mig29s has garbage avionics as seen on mig-29n.
For a comprehensive overview on the plane I recommend viewing Balta’s suggestion for it, excellent work from him.

If you’ve flown the mig-29n you would now how abysmal garbage it is.
Been trying to spade it and it’s pure torture flying it

Oh yeah, but first he just outright said the 9-13S was coming to the game. But he would later edit on the R-27ET and R-73 bit after I sent my message
Its basically 9-13S. Only thing which is different from 9-13S is absence of R-77. Both R-27ER / ET was never carried by standard 9-13.
