Well, there’s plenty of internal changes in avionics for it to just be “pretending”, but airframe itself is 9.41/47 in pretty much everything, true
Best? Oh its so fun to fly anywhere on the map except a canyon and suddenly some shitty F-14 launches 20 Phoenixes on you. The only chance for Su-33 is to fly low or behind a mountain and then peek out guide the R-27ER and because its fast you will get the kill fast but like this youll honestly get like 3 kills max in a normal game with actual players. It should ho down in its Br or get R-77s. But yes its true overall its one of the best. Except still having SARH.
Brother, not being able to notch Phoenix or F-14 radar is honestly a skill issue. And ER is pretty easy to guide considering that you have entire minute of a suspended datalink to reconnect or to switch target. Su-33 will suffer in heavy uptiers against 13.7-14.0, but this is compression issue that gaijin will never fix, so just play better, you have tools.

The 9.31 should be able to 8x R-77
It has more or the less same airframe as basis
Folding wings might impose weight limitations on outermost pylons. And, as i said above - there are no photo evidence of it being armed with 8xR-77.
The most they have is 8
and they’re pheonixes, not particularly hard to avoid
Meanwhile you get what is probably the best missile in the game (R-27ER)
8x of them too
front section of the rudder section is wrong in game, the CM mounts were deleted on the MiG-29M and moved else where

Hmmmmm,
Well according to the MiG bible they simply just call them “9.41R/47R”
Spoiler
and regular K/KUBs are just referred to as 9.41/47s.
Spoiler
Rather interestingly too, MiG-35 '154 Blue is referred to as 9.15D.
Spoiler
And on the topic of MiG-35s, MiG-35 and 35D are called “9.61/9.67”
Spoiler
Still need to look further for export designations though.
This goes alongside the modern MiG-35 dual seater being MiG-35D. And, well, 154 airframe is 9.15 after all.
This ones i think were only the ones shown at MMRCA, and nowhere else. But i might be wrong

I mean it says they were given the designation 9.61-67, I would assume they wouldn’t just give out a brand new designation for a trial…
How peculiar…
MiG-29Kr/KrUB → 9.41R/47R
MiG-29M/M2 → 9.41S/47S
MiG-35/35D → 9.41D/47D
… how can MiG be as convoluted as Sukhoi…
