Yak-141 (Yak-41M) - History, Design, Performance & Dissection

Its flight data was used for F-35 even.

@FlyingOstridge Stop trying to derail the discussion.
EAP was never armed, stop begging for exceptions to the rule.

The fact you imply Eurofighter Typhoon was never put into service is hilarious.

That we know of people are trying to find out if it was armed with more then duds

Mockups unfortunately to test aerodynamics

Still just as real as the radar and FCS in the Yak

We need to find proof that it was intended to be armed or was armed

How would we go about telling the developers to give the Yak-141 R-73’s and R-77’s. It has always bothered me that the armament of this aircraft is incorrect, and I would like to see it corrected (and adjusted in BR if need be).

Yeah- its my favorite plane ingame and I’d really like to see it given the materials to fight the other dogs of top tier. It’s about to go into 12.0 amraam territory with four missiles, only two of them being good, the other two pylons basically useless.
It also lacks the drop tank on the center pylon that gaijin forgot about as well as KH38 atgms.
Kinda sad…

I don’t know where you heard that it could use Kh-38’s, but it could not. It was planned to use Kh-31 and Kh-35 anti-ship missiles, but when it was added the developers stated they were too advanced for the game.

typo

Why there is not Kh-25 rockets in the setting for Yak-141 in game?

Hoping that we get the R-73 at least

Hopefully they can update the cockpit of this thing, it’s quite sad in game

the dispensers on the 41 look the same as the 29 so they should both be 1 pop hopefully one day
