JG-1_Vogel Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 Does anyone have a performance chart etc for showing the optimal speeds for turning circles, tried the interception quick mission last night and found it very hard to get on the F-4's tail and think perhaps I wasn't flying efficiently. Only managed to pick him off when he reached bingo fuel and was flying in a nice straight line back to his base. Easy guns kill :).
GGTharos Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 The charts will only help you a little...what you need is patience and a BFM course - having said that, yes, charts are available. No, they won't hand you the win. Yes, you will know more about this aircraft :-) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
JG-1_Vogel Posted September 20, 2014 Author Posted September 20, 2014 I'm not expecting it to be an "I win" thing, just wanted to know more info on the performance envelope that's all. Do you know where I might find such charts?
GGTharos Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 There should be a real mig-21 manual floating around that could have them. Unfortunately I can't look for it right now.

Tango Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 I haven't seen charts for max rate/min radius turns, or discussion of "max corner airspeed". Maybe there is another term used? Best regards, Tango.
