They want you to spend money, it's clear. The nerf to the economy now made grinding even worse and it's very intentional as to why. After all, they did just release a bunch of Rank 7 premiums along with the Christmas sale being right around the corner.

It's unable to pull the nose around at low airspeeds and the AoA is lacking. Currently the FM is very underperforming and I am working on bug reports to fix it. The F-16 was also irrationally nerfed into the ground before introduction to live. I'd recommend covering these if they're fixed after the new years.

Exactly, this isn't the S. It's been a common mistake due to incorrect info in the english wiki of the Mig-29. The 9-13S (the actual S) had many differences, including the new radar, new R-77, R-27ER and R-73M missiles, revised flight control systems allowing higher AoA and a bit more ground ordinance, enabling the middle wing pylons for FAB-500 bombs.

Those Gaijin's thrust parameters: 3920/6820 kgf. And real RD-33: 5040/8340. Welcome to the second iteration of dev server, folks)) p.s. S version is based on 9-13, but they is not the same, if i'm correct. S version have advanced radar and optic complex RLPK-29S for extended R-27RE/TE, R-77 use, underwing fuel tanks 1150L (older 29 versions: underfuselage 1500L and underwing on 800L) for example.

Re HMD, in the real MiG-29 the pilot's helmet had an analog sight, mounted to the right side of his helmet. The pilot would drop that over his eye and it would have a transparent square of plastic with a ring sight in it. He'd move that over the bandit, press a button on the stick to lock up the target, squeeze the launch authorize button and away the missile goes. It was crude, just a step above the AH-1 Cobra gunner helmet sights, but it worked. Then came the SU-27's system and the more advanced Israeli systems followed by the US and others. Funny enough the A-10C and the F-16C have the same helmet mounted display and if the F-14D and stayed it would have had the same display.

Thank's for the great review. A little note: The difference between the 29S and A seem a bit more complex than the difference between the 9-13 and 9-12 Variant. The 9-12 can actually be an S and an A, the same goes for the 9-13. I honestly don't have it fully figured out either, I only know that it is not as simple as I thought at first. If I do find out more, I will reply to this comment.

The US Navy had helmet mounted targeting systems in service as early as the late 60s, way before south africa did. Pretty much all USN phantoms had access to em. The technology was fairly well understood in the west, they just tended to prioritize radar slaving, given how advanced their radar sets were.
@TimsVariety
@TimsVariety 2 жыл бұрын
The primary sources I have indicated that the South Africans introduced them operationally in 1966, specifically mentioning that it was the first system in actual service rather than just testing prototypes or anything. The US Navy''s VTAS wasn't introduced until 1969 in the F-4J (which now has it in game, by the way). What you're probably thinking of was a system from Hughes that used a small CRT reflector as a makeshift HUD, but it didn't provide any weapons targeting functions.

I just take a slight issue with the narrativization of the MiG-29's story, sure it was in line with what was being done elsewhere, but by no means was the helmet mounted targeting system groundbreaking for the time. I liked the vid, even if the in cockpit part could've benefitted from a non-vr section to demonstrate the system working as intended!

It merely provided the basis upon which the 9.13S was made from with improved radar and avionics changes to facilitate R-27ER/T and R-77 use among other things. That said, most informative.

"It will allow for sloppier performances, you decide if this is a good or bad thing" It definitely is a good thing imo. Anyone who disagrees ask yourself this, what's the point on continuing to introduce modern vehicles if they don't provide upgrades and ease of use life upgrades? Modern military equipment is easier to use than the previous equipment, accessibility improvements were done to make the technology easier to use and more human friendly. The doctorine most countries realised, was a more comfortable pilot or crew meant a better performing crew. Now that being said it appears that the mig 29 will still perform better if you never make a mistake and fly it like a champ, the difference is there's more of a margin for error. I just think it's important to accept this sooner rather than later, before the 5th gen jets with thrust vectoring arrive.

Though I haven’t tried the mig29) Also the aim7M right now I don’t think is any different from the aim7F but should be somewhat better as well so we might still get significant upgrades. Either later or when more gen 4 fighters are introduced. (My guess is that the full performance would be to unbalanced right now. Instead of more decompression gaijin is just nerfing the planes.

As I was thinking, this doesnt really shift the meta. Mig29 should have been introduced together with the f-14, that still remains the most capable aircraft in the american tech tree and arguably in the game. But now at least it has several worthy opponents. I'd like to see also france and sweden get better BVR missiles in the future to stop the gap between them and the usa.

There's a bug on console that when you free look while spooling a missile like the IR missiles, it does not following where you look like it should and how you do on PC. Bit frustrating I am not able to use the helmet mount display on my IR missiles and have to use the mouse aim to aim it.

@Tim Variety, I don’t agree with you regarding the mig 29 being a competitive jet, few days ago , the devs released a report stating the fact that, the 29 is performing way worse than the f16, so I do not agree with you regarding the 29 as it can’t BVR and can’t BVM.

Mig29 9.13 isn't mig29s. Mig 29s is 9.13s, even some 9.12 were retrofitted to 9.12s. Mig29s can use R77 and has several visual differences to the one in game.

What im missing in SIM is some kind of IFF. Most of players ignore ''Attention to the map, Follow me'' and just keep flying. There is almost no way to identify a plane if you are not dangerously close enough most of the time. At least make your mates appear on the map as blue dots. That would solve 90% of teamkills. Just got banned because of it. 4 kills total. 2 because of my lack of skill, 3rd because my teammate ignored any kind of communication whatsoever and the last... Well whole team is Soviet, But we have a damn sabre as AI. Wrong identification from my side. But why can't it be a MIG-15 or something. Mode really lacks some kind of sharpness, just seems like they don't care about it. Im not a good sim player, but definitely not only one that thinks it need some kind of rework. Have a nice day.
