Top Tier Russian Fighters are worse than nearly all of their competition

What’s the point of engaging if you aren’t willing to present any arguments ?
Also, US players talking about victim complex is quite funny.

That’s the funny thing, i’m not willing to engage with you in particular. I even spoke with OP and others some comments above.

Assuming that i’m a US main only because i’m aiming at your particular victim complex proves furthermore my point that engaging with you in particular is as unpleasant (and a festival of dishonesty) as having an exchange with Alvis.

Literally no one is forcing you to reply to me but yet you’re doing it, thus you’re engaging so not presenting anything of value is just spam.
You’re just polluting the thread with infantile behavior.

I never called you a main, reading is not your strong suit.

And no one forced you to reply my answer to Dailymigger in the first place. You’re not gatekeeping me to expose this victimist and disingenuous behavior of yours.

I called you an apologist with a victim complex, your answer went around calling us players having a worse victim complex as a reply to my claim. Unless you go in life throwing shade on people that’s actually not around you, i can comfortably assume you were talking about me.

Engaging with people is the point of this forum.
I had a legitimate question and instead of just ignoring it or giving me a legitimate answer, you proceeded to have a meltdown in your first response to me.

Judging by your answers, I’m not gatekeeping you from acting like an infant that can’t control his emotions.

The iq of the player base has dropped a lot

No you just don’t.

By that answer, anyone here can assume you made that “Has RU been meta” question as rethorical rather than legitimate, proving by the 4th time your permanent victim complex, and even if i would’ve answered your question an inch away from your beliefs, you would’ve tagged me as a us player or any type of absurd caricature to disprove anything that i could argue at all.

I’ve seen how you treat people that digress with you for example in the GRB top tier situation, you won’t frame me that easily.

muh realism for Russian tanks and jets and game competitiveness for us tanks and jets

it doesn’t

I did, it probably flew right past you as you had someone question your claims. Instead of getting your emotions under control and forming a coherent answer to the question, you decided to have a meltdown over a simple thing which is quite funny to be honest.

I have enough decency to answer the questions in a legitimate way, not framing them as apologists in my first reply to them.

I hope for your own sake that you’ll eventually grow past that infantile behavior you’re presenting in this very thread.

The MIG 29 should have the R73, and its flight model should be comparable to the F16, as IRL it was very close in performance.

What we have instead is a flying brick, Russia gets the WORST Mig 29 in game (SMT), and the earlier version doesn’t even have the missiles its supposed to.

Buff the Mig 29, give the SU27SM the R77M, making it on par with the AMRAAM. Easy fix.

which AMRAAM?
definitely not A and B

R77M is way too powerful. It’s a 120C/D competitor.

Sure, but similar to how various other things have been nerfed for the sake of “game balance” - Gaijin can just add the missile and copy paste the AMRAAMs stats in game. An AMRAAM with the skin of a R77M.

This is still a game, realistic accuracy for the sake of realism sucks, some nations are just out of luck if thats the case.

And thats no fun. We all want to have competitive flight models and missiles.

Nah, I want the R77M to come as a real R77M.

The R77-1 is competitive to the AIM120A/B, especially if trans sonic drag is properly modeled

this is a game, designed to be balanced. For a game to be balanced if something is good at a thing it also has to be bad at another thing. You can’t just ignore the things it’s good at (4 more missiles than competition, low speed pull, best fox 1), point at the downsides, and then ask for a buff.

The real answer is probably because they’re near(or are) the cheapest to buy and maintain, get more control over them, not so many strings and there isn’t exactly many modern jets to choose from in the first place.

That said, I think garbage or whatever he called it is a bit hyperbolic. They’re just inferior, not garbage. It’s not as if they wouldn’t score kills in a hot war, they’d just be at a disadvantage depending on the engagement.

You didn’t, we all know where you stand because you live in these threads. Asking if he was gonna “latch on to r27er” was sarcasm and eye roll at best, it wasn’t genuine curiosity. It was baiting someone.

Really it’s just an opportunity for you to run in circles with chicken and egg arguments that are past beating a dead horse that happens in every one of these “discussions.”

Edit: seems my comment was redundant he said the same thing in response a few down.

If they operated like they do in warthunder, they’d score no kills lol. Irl they’re probably way better. But some irl stats can be skewed so eh.

Again, what part of larger jet is actually cheap?

The fact is, after the Cold War, it became obvious that F-18, and F-16C, were no match for a MiG-29, using low afterburner.
It slaughtered them in exercises, and unlike F-16C at the time had BVR.

Because it wasn’t a cheap coffin that started it’s life without even IFF.
