On the Tusk Force dev server, the Belgian F-16A OCU is at the same BR as the MiG-29 9.12/9.13, yet it gets to take six AIM-9Ms, or four Magic IIs and two AIM-9Ms. At the same BR as the MiG-29 9.12/9.13, while the MiG-29 9.12/9.13 are stuck with only R-60Ms.
Gaijin, you have no excuses left. It has been FAR too long since the MiG-29s should have gotten their R-73s, and this new 12.7 F-16 is the final straw. Give the MiG-29s their R-73s.
i thought the SAME exact thing when i saw the f16OCU, magic 2s are arguable better than r73s, and the f16 is INARGUABLY better ingame than mig 29. where are my r73 damn it.
Inconsequential, given A) how good the F-16A’s FM is; B) how little staying power the MiG-29 has past the early game; and C) how genuinely powerful the AIM-9Ms are.
2- Only if ~11 13.0s move down to 12.7 such as F-14B
Let’s not kid ourselves here, the F-14B is in such a poor state and the Phoenixes are so bad that, in its current state, the Bombcat could go down to 12.7 and practically nothing would change about the overall balance of the game.
