Judging from the above-attached online data, since the external models and cockpits and weapan system of MIG-29M and MIG-29S are very different, if E.D chooses to develop MIG-29M or MIG-29S, it is equivalent to developing a new module. Therefore, it is speculated that E.D chose to use FC3's mig-29 3D modeling to develop MIG-29 for production cost considerations, so we can only get MIG-29A As for someone who said: This has nothing to do with the exterior 3D model, by far, it's the cheapest part of any module developmen!! Is this true?? Take a look at the old version of F-5E. E.D. only improved the 3D modeling and cockpit texture to make it a new version, but E.D. charged 15 US dollars!!

The later improved versions of Mig-29 are quite different from the original version, and can even launch air-to-ground missiles. However, E.D. already has the FC4 version of Mig-29A 3D model, so in order to save development costs, they continued to use it when developing the high-fidelity version of Mig-29, because if they want to develop an improved version of Mig-29M or Mig-29S, it is the same as developing a new aircraft. However, for customers, what they want to play most is the improved version of Mig-29S or MIG29M, not the MIG-29A that has been played in DCS FC3 FC4 Please refer to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikoyan_MiG-29 and "https://sirviper.com/index.php?page=fighters/mig-29/mig-29s The MiG-29 was widely exported in downgraded versions, known as MiG-29 9-12A for Warsaw Pact and MiG-29 9-12B for non-Warsaw Pact nations,[12] with less capable avionics and no capability for delivering nuclear weapons. In the 1980s, Mikoyan developed the improved MiG-29S to use longer range R-27E air-to-air missiles. It added a dorsal 'hump' to the upper fuselage to house a jamming system and some additional fuel capacity. The weapons load was increased to 4,000 kg (8,800 lb) with airframe strengthening. These features were included in new-built fighters and upgrades to older MiG-29s.[13][14] A Russian Air Force MiG-29UB trainer landing Refined versions of the MiG-29 with improved avionics were fielded by the Soviet Union, but Mikoyan's multirole variants, including a carrier-based version designated MiG-29K, were never produced in large numbers. Development of the MiG-29K carrier version was suspended for over a decade before being resumed; the type went into service with the Indian Navy's INS Vikramaditya, and Russian Navy's Admiral Kuznetsov class aircraft carrier.[citation needed] Mikoyan also developed improved versions MiG-29M and MiG-29SMT.[15][16] There have been several upgrade programmes conducted for the MiG-29. Common upgrades include the adoption of standard-compatible avionics, service life extensions to 4,000 flight hours, safety enhancements, greater combat capabilities and reliability.[citation needed] " ~~ he Mikoyan MiG-29 (9-13) and MiG-29S (9-13S) 'Fulcrum-C' NATO allocated the new reporting name 'Fulcrum-C' for aircraft fitted with a bulged and extended spine, which reportedly houses both fuel and avionics, and which may also be applied through retrofit. Internal fuel is increased by provision of larger No. 1 fuel tank, though different sources disagree as to the size of the increase (75, 130, 175 or 240 litres/20, 34, 46 or 63 US gal, according to Mikoyan documents). Soviet sources suggest that the 'Fulcrum-C' is still simply designated MiG-29, although the nickname 'Gorbatov' (hunchback) is commonly used. One of the MiG-29S prototypes, this aircraft has a modified flight control system and upgraded radar, plus provision for Western avionics and underwing fuel tanks. A staged programme of modifications will allow the aircraft to carry up to 4000 kg of external stores. An inflight-refuelling probe and laser-, TV- and radar-guided ASMs will be added from 1995. The first 'fatbacked' MiG-29 was 9-13, the second pre-production aircraft, which first flew on 23 December 1980, in the hands of V.M. Gorbunov. At one time the 'Fulcrum-C' seemed to be slowly replacing the 'Fulcrum-A' in VVS service, bu the two types continued in production alongside one another and often serve in the same units (occasionally with the very early ventral-finned MiG-29s). Pilots report that apart from endurance, there is no difference in flying/operating characteristics, although some sources suggest that the 'Fulcrum-C' has an enhanced ground attack capability and/or provision for an active jammer. Certainly the 9-13 has redesigned wingtips which appear to accomodate new RWR antennas. No 'hunchbacked' 'Fulcrum-Cs' have been exported yet, though Malaysia's MiG-29s may prove to be based on the 'Fulcrum-C'. The unique contours of the 'Fulcrum-C's enlarged fuselage spine led to the allocation of new NATO reporting name, although the OKB designation is unchanged. The 9-13 forms the basis of the improved MiG-29S (9-13S), which was designed as an increased-capability version of the standard MiG-29. According to Mikoyan, the MiG-29S represents "what happened when we squeezed all we could from the basic MiG-29 airframe." The new variant has a new modified flight control system, using small computers to improve stability and controllability, and the control surfaces have greater deflection. Alpha and g limits are increased. All MiG-29S features can be incorporated by upgrading existing 'Fulcrum-Cs', and MAPO is aggressively marketing a similar upgrade for export 'Fulcrum-As'. The MiG-29S introduces revised radar/weapons system algorithms and software (and it is believed that processing capacity has been increased) to allow for the simultaneous tracking and engagement of multiple targets. The modified radar is redesignated N-019M. Operational capability has been enhanced by fitting a new sighting system, and more recently by making provision for the active homing AAM-AE 'AMRAAMski'. The first MiG-29S made its maiden flight during 1984, and three prototypes were followed by new production aircraft and conversions. Two polk (squadrons) are in service. Although the spine of the 'Fulcrum-C' is considerably enlarged, it contains only 75-240 litres of extra fuel. The designation MiG-29SE has been applied to an export version of the MiG-29S. This has a slightly downgraded radar (the N-019ME) which retains multiple-target tracking and which may give compatibility with AAM-AE. An aircraft displayed at Le Bourget in June 1993 was not a MiG-29SE, but was a standard MiG-29 variant plumbed for the carriage of underwing fuel tanks, but this is untrue, since many Soviet 'Fulcrum-As' have been seen carrying these for ferry flights. The MiG-29S may, however, be the first variant stressed to carry underwing tanks in combat, or to have provision for extra pylons (like the MiG-29M and the MiG-29K) to allow tanks to be carried without sacrificing weapons, and is the first export model offered with underwing tanks. External warload is doubled by the simple expedient of restressing the inner underwing pylons to carry up to four 500-kg (1,102-lb) bombs in side-by-side tandem pairs. The end of the Cold War has led to a dramatic down-scaling of MiG-29 production, both for the VVS and for the export customers. Production in Moscow (at the Labour Banner factory) and in Nizhny Novograd continues at a very low rate, adding to a June 1993 stockpile which totalled about 100 unsold aircraft. A July 1993 Malaysian order for the MiG-29 may have been for some of these aicraft upgraded to MiG-29SE standards, or for MiG-29Ms. The 18 aircraft on order include some two-seaters (perhaps as many as six). Hungary's MiG-29s have been described as MiG-29Ss by some sources, but are actually standard 'Fulcrum-As'. The brown and green ground attack colour scheme worn by some Russian and Ukrainian MiG-29s (mainly 'Fulcrum-Cs', but including some early ventral-finned 'Fulcrum-As') is very similar to that applied to Czech and East German air force aircraft. This Russian 'Fulcrum-C' carries a Guards badge, perhaps indicating previous service at Kubinka, but was photographed at Zhukhovskii, where it serves the LII Gromov Flight Research Centre as a development and test aircraft. SPECIFICATION Mikoyan MiG-29S generally similar to the Mikoyan MiG-29 'Fulcrum-A' except in the following particulars: Weights: normal take-off weight 15300 kg (33,730 lb): maximum take-off weight 19700 kg (42,680 lb) Fuel and load: internal fuel 4440-4540 litres (976-998 US gal), external fuel 3,800 litres (1,004 US gal): maximum ordnance load 4000 kg (8,818 lb) Range: ferry range 2900 km (1,566 nm; 1,802 miles) with three drop tanks This unusual two-tone green camouflage, seen on a pair of of MiG-29s (this one a 'Fulcrum-C') departing from Ribnitz-Damgarten during May 1994, may be the latest MiG-29 fighter-bomber colour scheme, or may have been entirely experimental and applied at unit level. One of the 733rd IAP's three squadrons was believed to have a primary fighter-bomber role. Source: Encyclopedia of World Military Aircraft 1994 © Aerospace

There is a price to pay for this! Pushing out the most original, with a retro mechanical clock-style dashboard MIG-29A version will ultimately lead to poor sales due to lack of novelty and poor performance. After all, customers are not fools

Very disappointing! The mig-29 version pre-ordered this time is 9.12A, which is the export version of the Warsaw Pact member countries This is the most primitive and worst-performing version. If it is a more modernized mig-29s or mig-29m, it will help increase sales. I don't understand why E.D. would choose the most primitive and worst-performing mig-29a? Add a highly realistic target aircraft to modern air combat? But for those who have a retro and nostalgic feeling, they will still buy it.

About the actual completion progress of the Cold War Germany map The actual download and installation is about 100 gb, but the DCS website says that 205 gb of space is required, so it is estimated that the actual completion rate is about 50%.

The actual download and installation is about 100gb, but as the DCS website indicates, 205gb is required for installation

It's so sad! The original production team resigned due to some internal disputes! Then the company recruited new employees to take over. It is known that a programmer has been recruited and is familiar with the work. I don't know how long it will take before he can officially take over! Then there is still a lack of an artist. The defects of external modeling are still hopeless to be improved.

I also played with the F-4E fighter. After actually performing ground attack missions, I was really impressed by the pilots during the Vietnam War who could fly such an antique to perform missions. It is much easier to perform similar missions with modern fighters such as the F-16. The MiG-29A is a fighter similar to the F-4E, but of course it is slightly more advanced than the F-4E. Although everyone has different preferences, I believe that most computer pilots still prefer to fly modern fighters.

To be honest, the MiG-29A is not easy to operate in the real world and is not a very likable fighter. If you want to achieve sales results, you should give priority to developing more modern models.

This is a pretty bad situation. Updates are repeatedly delayed just because of a new employee? This makes me a little pessimistic about the future development of oh-58d

It's been a long time since last updated. The improvement of 3D exterior modeling has not been implemented yet. I don't know how long it will take. For a small company of three people, these updates are quite laborious.　　

We are getting close to releasing the next section? It seems that the definition of time for "getting close" is different from what we know. This "getting close" is over seven months!!

After seven months of delay, the remaining eastern and northern parts of the Afghanistan map have not yet been released, and a large-scale re-map is still being carried out. This is terrible!! This is a serious credit failure.

How sad! Credit is broken! No updates after seven months of release, even the map of eastern Afghanistan doesn't know where it is

What a tragedy! The map of Afghanistan has not been updated since its release in July. Even the map of eastern Afghanistan has not been released. This has greatly affected customers’ trust in ed. Of course, if ed only wants to make money by publishing the map of Iraq and does not care about their reputation, it is a shame. I didn't say anything
