I have been eagerly waiting for a full fidelity MiG-29 for many years and your announcement came in as music to my ears. Based on this I would like to clarify one of the biggest misconceptions for your planned module. Its name. In the history of the Fulcrum there has never been a fully fledged MiG-29A version. The MiG-29A that is so erroneously used by many, was a plan in the mid 70s to create a MiG-29 version with the MiG-29 body design, but with the MiG-23ML avionics and weapons (this had the identification project 9.11A). photos attached This was a proposal to close an existing gap in the Air Force quicker. It never materialised and was cancelled in 1977. So the initial version of the MiG-29 meant for the Soviet air force was called just that, MiG-29 or izdeliye 9.12. The export version of that, to Warsaw Pact countries, was called MiG-29 again, but the identifier was izdeliye 9.12A (it was a slightly downgraded version of the 9.12) The export version to non Warsaw Pact countries, was called again MiG-29, but now the identifier was izdeliye 9.12B (it was a more downgraded version of the 9.12) To sum all this information up I would like to urge you to use from now on, the correct name for the full fidelity module you have in the works which is: MiG-29 9.12A Sources A. Fomin, A. Mikheev, E. Gordon

I only fly redfor jets (FC3 and FF that do not have such detailed or strong radars). Redfor does not have the level of realism that the main ED modules (Fighting Falcon, Hornet) have. I am hoping ED will get it right and the 9.12A simulation will be just as good.

ECM documentation will make no difference in DCS, since ECM implementation in game is as basic as it gets.
