I think MSIP I jets got AMRAAM support at some point. I know Saudi Eagles had AMRAAM including some given directly from USAFE stock to the Saudi airforce and then never received another upgrade. https://web.archive.org/web/20140526083455/http://www.touchdown-aviation.com/reports/2014/green-shield-157516041575158215901585-1588161016041583-2014.php https://www.runway-fever.nl/galleries/2014-2/green-shield-2014/ https://defence.pk/threads/saudi-and-french-fighters-get-familiar-f-15c-vs-rafale.330385/#post-6092696 F-15C MSIP would probably need AMRAAM to go 3-3 against AESA equipt Rafale. also in the late 90s Japan had a small number of aim-120b for their F-15J which are essentially MSIP I. J-MSIP II wasn’t till the early 2000s.

F-16ADF posted it on F-16.net. I’m not sure were he got it but the format looks like world power journal like the last post said.

Our Incoming MiG-29A vs Non Warsaw Pact Variant
F-2 replied to Horns's topic in DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum
Later production Soviet Fulcrums also had this mode removed. It wasn’t liked or used by pilots for some reason. -

Our Incoming MiG-29A vs Non Warsaw Pact Variant
F-2 replied to Horns's topic in DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum
It’s probably ECM and IFF which is pretty normal for every export radar. -
The reality is the F-16 wasn’t going to do much without support. In Lebanon and the Gulf they were on a very short leash while Eagles handled air superiority. Still given the limitations of the Floggers sensors it wasn’t hard for a Viper to get close and hit it with a sidewinder. Here is a Pakistani F-16A killing a MIG-23MLD it just flew up too.

Mig 29 Air to Ground Ability and Weapons?
F-2 replied to Mad Dog 762's topic in DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum
It’s got a lot of thrust for getting the hell out of dodge when things go bad which is nice for an attack platform. -
Mig 29 Air to Ground Ability and Weapons?
F-2 replied to Mad Dog 762's topic in DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum
Pretty decent dumb bomb rocket platform. It’s proven itself pretty able in recent events. -
The Eagles did. BVR was kind of a crap shoot at the time with AIM-7F and R23 being pretty limited. AIM-9L and Python 3 getting most of the kills.

Expectation on Air to Air missiles of the MiG-29A?
F-2 replied to pepin1234's topic in DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum
-
They realistically never got close enough to matter. The one WVR engagement between an Eagle and Fulcrum had the Fulcrum on the defensive the entire time. Far more telling is that inspite of occasional getting detection or locks no Fulcrum ever fired their decidedly not export R27R at a collation aircraft.

Early access list looks pretty good.

RDY.pdf my translated paper on RDY by its designers. honestly it would be nice to have some aircraft that can use MICA.

Got the radar manual their are a couple papers with details of the flight control their is a report in dtic it’s probably the regular MiG-29 cockpit but during the visit to MiG GD engineers had access to the MiG-29M/K flight sim, it might be worth requesting ADB171690 MiG 29 Cockpit I would love the old Flanker 2.5 MiG-29K restored
-
my guess is ED was given full access by either Lockheed or the airforce to a sim like this. That’s what the FAQ sounds like.

The Iraqi foxbat had those mods and it’s in the manual that the Soviets provided. The Iraqi Mirage F1s were also better than their French counterparts. They definitely were a demanding customer. Too much is made of difference in my opinion.
