The 12.7 MiG-29s (9.12/9.13) NEED their R-73s. Gaijin has no excuses left





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.

6 Aim-9Ms at 12.7 is crazy, makes me feel even worse for the Netz As…

At least the 16OCU is not a premium

IK now it dosent make it that much better

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.

did you miss the magic 2s?

well its definetly fun to have an f16 with magics and not have it be a premium.

ok, and how many r27ers does the OCU get to bring?

1- Dev server BRs are not final.
2- Only if ~11 13.0s move down to 12.7 such as F-14B, Mirage 4000, Mig-29G, etc.
2a- Or Mig-29 moves up to 13.0.

You have way better flight performance and way better avionics with the f16ocu than with the mig29

If the Mig29 were to receive the r73 it should lose the r27er so that it only has the r27r

r27er’s should be removed

F-16A OCU needs to go up to 13.0

They’re not as potent as 9Ms. Not saying it’s not worth brining 1 or 2, but 9Ms will be the go to weaponry for it.

for arb magic 2s are definetly better

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.

not shamless we love it

bombcat would be a worse 12.7 than the premium hornets,

aim-9M arent better really all they have there stealth and shut off IRRCM

magic 2 35G unflareable in 1.5KM

and magic 2s because of the short burn time have stealth too essentially
