they just love any delta canard
I’d love more MiG’s too, but I doubt those would be the main top tiers for the tree, so Su35 is the more suitable option imo.

Where new fulcrums then? MiG-29M/K/35 of different countries in different variations. None of them. Only flankers.

mig-29k is gonna have worse flight performance than the normal mig-29 lol, do not be excited for it
Afaik Fulcrums have pretty poor flight performance in-game, so I doubt the Mig-35S would be higher than 14.0
the AESA equipped mig-35 will be 14.0 max due to only 32cms, unless they add the ecm pod for it

Do you have any infos on these pods?

Cool, though how many cms can that pod take? I watched the whole thing but I don’t know Russian well enough sadly
no it cant carry more CMs in the pod but the idea is to use ECM instead of traditional CMs to make up for it
Ah alright, I did understand from the images and some rough text understanding that it has ecms. But would that compensate enough for the lack of classic flares and chaff?
irl? probably idk
in game when gaijin adds ECM to the game? it all depends on how well gaijin models it

If you fix the mig29s FM, itll basically be a whole new jet, because what we have in the game isnt a mig29, its a mig14.5, snail just dropped half the jet and forgot about the rest.

They forgot that a MiG-29 doesn’t generate as much drag as a Sukhoi for the amount of AoA…
I hope we get a MiG-29M since it was passed to devs, or a 29K
They all would have better FM by a pretty big margin
Is there any significant difference for in-game performance between N001VEP and N001?
No
Not especially
1 extra datalink channel, though R-77’s have too low effective range to really effectively use a TWS datalink anyway. Most of the time its just hard-lock with the HMD.
Bit of extra power in high PRF mode, rangeMax of 120K instead of 100K, though high PRF has limited utility ingame
and 10° of extra elevation limit downwards which is handy

I would be careful what you wish for. 29K especially is quite a bit heavier due to carrier-related strengthening.
The main benefits of MiG-35/29K would be uprated sensors and weapons fit. In terms of flight model you are probably looking at something that will fly like the SMT, rather than the 9-12 Fulcrum.
It sucks, but the best Fulcrum in terms of raw flight performance and agility should be the the early model on account of less mass. Ideally, Gaijin should fix that first before adding any future Fulcrums.

Well, 29K, while being heavier than SMT actually has uprated engines. Another thing is that it has bigger tail surfaces with dogtooth as well as enlarged leading edge slats that cover entirety of a leading edge and an actual fly-by-wire (tho i have zero clue if it will have any effect in war thunder). So it should have different flight model from a current Fulcrum but it’s hard to say how much and if it’s gonna be better or worse.
Me personally - i want Su-35S because i am a huge Sukhoi fanboy, but i won’t be sad if we get a Fulcrum instead, any Fulcrum honestly.

Any MiG at this point😂
Just one gaijin
