Leatherneck: Mig-21Bis

[Carlos_Tex 2]

Shooting down a F-15C with a MiG-21bis is a major accomplishment even against AI. It's good to keep down in the weeds, but you'll burn precious fuel. Although the MiG-21 is a rocket with wings and can climb quite fast, so can the F-15 and you still have to get your missiles behind him. As far as i know the best you'll have in the Bis is the R-60. You'll have to dodge at least a Sidewinder before getting into the merge.

 

And against human skill that's another story.

 

With that being said i think the MiG-21Bis will be a fantastic addition. I just wish a F-4 was also in the works. Since the F-14 is not gonna happen anymore, i'll be jumping in if the plane additions are more consistent and not all over the place.

 

I have some hope in Belsimtek developer. Although they are focusing a little more on helicopters, they have been delivering consistenly. I just wonder what they are gonna do after the Cobra.

 

Leatherneck is a big hope too. The MiG-21 is absolutely fantastic and i also wonder if they have plans for a follow up plane.

In the meantime here's a video for the Bis:
