*** Posted by TIGER *** Hi Rapier The MIG29 airframe is more advanced in terms of aerodinamics not construction (the construction is desastrous) than the airframe of F16 like I said and this helps MIG29 to fly at high AoA without loosing control. In the F16 this is limited to 25'. Advanced aerodinamics is all about. The russians seems to be the ...

*** Posted by Rapier *** Hi RUN, Yeah, I realised this yesterday and began cutting out the unecessary bits of the message/s to not clog up the database. (Tiiger feel free to do this as well because it can be slightly confusing). Thanks Rapier

*** Posted by RUN *** To decrease workload for the database its a good idea when you answer something that you erase anything inside the square brackets that doesn't relate directly to the answer. When you do this put in a little ---Snip--- to let people know that you removed something. Example: [---Snip--- What is the color of the Danish f16

*** Posted by Rapier *** [Hi Rapier About AIM9. The most advanced AIM9 is 5 years behind the Archer. I know it is hard to believe but russians have more advanced dogfighting missiles. That's the true. TIGER ] Hi Tiger, Interesting! Why they have not developed a better AIM than the Russian missles. Is this a weak spot of NATO aircraft. ...

*** Posted by Rapier *** [ Hi Rapier Who's the better? I'm telling you. I forgot to say that the F16 has a smaller RCS with make the F16 harder to detect than the MIG29 and F16 can maintain energy better. It's hard to say who's the better because both aircraft seems to be equal. I prefer F16 in BVR combat and MIG29 in close combat. As I said ...

*** Posted by Rapier *** [Hi Rapier I have on my hard disk MIG29vsF16 comparision. My opinion about these aircraft. 1. F16 has a limit of AoA of 25' MIG29 - 45' AoA 2. F16 has a better all around visibility. 3. MIG29 has a HMS (helmet mounted sight) which is VERY DANGEROUS for F16. 4. At slow airspeeds the MIG29 is better. 5. At higher ...

*** Posted by Rapier *** [Hi Rapier You escaped the first missile by blacking out. What about the second? In the real life you can face more than 1 missile an you must be prepared for this. TIGER] Hi Tiger, I would have to rely on the ECM, but I may be killed even before I wake up. But that's like saying what will you do if several SAM's are ...
