    02:19 that's because the radar gunsight calculates based on the assumption that the target will fly straight from the second you pull the trigger, which in dogfights is of course wrong. It essentially makes it so you have to remove any radar lock you have (inlcuding a TWS lock) to get the regular gunsight back so you can guess where to aim with a reticle actually pointing where your guns are pointing as opposed to guessing with a reticle that's all the way in Narnia.
    Edit: it is very accurate when the target is flying straight, it's basically a free pilot snipe from almost any range if they do that, but since you can't count on the enemy to fly straight in general, especially not in a dogfight, that only makes it a gimmick at best.

    The radar gunsight only indicates how much you should lead the gun, and nothing else.
    For example, if your target is going in a linear path from your POV, then the radar gunsight will work perfectly.
    If it's manoeuvring, then just aimaing the radar gunsight will just never hit.
    What I do is that I get in a favorable position (like above the target) then use the radar gunsight to get the correct lead, and then I spray a little to the right and to the left for good measure.
    Often you can tell where the target is deviating to and correct for it on the fly.
    Well, as long as you understand the only 100% reliable information it gives you is lead, it's a pretty useful tool.

    I have an F-16 but not an MiG-29... but I am always amazed at how responsive the MiG-29 seems by comparison. The F-16 feels like a brick at high speed, and while it is generally good at defensive flying, you need to often pop the airbrakes so you can pull hard enough to avoid guns/missiles. Watching the MiG-29's flight performance and missiles just make it seem like it is a far superior plane in almost every way.

Like when I fly my F-14, its performance is obviously not meant to be as good as the F-16, but that thing can do crazy maneuvers when you stomp on the elevator.

      If you duel/test FM you'd know the F-16 could beat literally everything in a 1v1, now the MiG-29 can actually win since their AOA is about the same.

      @@jaek__ The MiG-29 and F-16 aren't really under/over performing anymore.
      The only FM problems right now are that MiG-29 cant do a proper cobra (which in dogfights really doesn't matter since you'd need to turn off instructor and if you do that theres a very big risk of just going into a flat-spin) and that the F-16 cant pull 9Gs at mach 1.1+ even though it should be able to IRL.
      When it comes to dogfights, both fighters are performing exactly how they should. The MiG-29 is better in the first few turns but in sustained dogfights, it doesn't do well. And thats exactly how it should go as the F-16 is one of the best rate fighters even in modern times.

    I am spading the Mig-29A (GER) right now and gotta say even stock its a beast and with all the performance upgrades I actually won several 7 kill matches yesterday. Hands down best plane in WT right now. My only gripe with it is that the radar scale scope does not change and the refresh rate on it is pretty slow.
    F-14 comes in second place and Mig-23MLA would take the third IMO.
    I don't like the F-16. I spaded the american one, played the Chinese one but they all feel like big meh. Even had more fun in J-7E in full uptier than F-16.
    I think the F-16 would fare much much better in 4v4 matches as you could focus more on sustained ratefighting and not worry about getting third partied. But right now? When they changed matches to 16v16? In these 32 player matches, F-16 without FOX3 is completely outclassed.

The 9L's are good at longer range shots but those offer more reaction time. I personally prefer 60m's having used both.

    I think this lead indicator should be switchable on and off. There have been so many moments where I wanted to shoot a priority behind another target with a missile but it was aimlocked to that target so that I missed someone else that was passing in front of me. Also works really bad on headons where you want to land a missile hit but being ready with the gun just in case it misses.

    After flying the German MiG-29 a bit and having flown the F-16/F-14 pretty extensively to good effect, I honestly think the fixed FM MiG-29 should have it's R-27ER's removed. The base 27's are already very competent missiles and the ER's just put every other missile to shame, even the Phoenix to a great extent. It's either that or the F-16A gets early amraams but I hardly think that would do well to balance everything else out.
    TL;DR - MiG-29 has such good missiles and flight performance that it probably doesn't need the 27ER's to still do well. Those were just a lazy addition.

    • @Julio_Tortillia
      @Julio_Tortillia Рік тому

      I dont think ERs should be removed. The normal R27s have abysmal acceleration and way less range, basically completely removing the BVR capabilities of MiG-29. They should rather buff sparrows or add the earliest AMRAAMs with low range to balance out BVR.

Also, the regular r27r's may be slower but they were still very effective in my experience. They had pretty good range. The mig-29's radar is definitely good enough now that the base 27r's have some reach comparable to other contemporaries.

PL5-Bs certainly help of course, but I’ve had a whole bunch of dogfights against 12.0s and I literally haven’t lost one for some reason, and I feel like I probably should have by now.
