      do not believe this guy
      as a player with 2000 hours lsn to this , if you are a new player this will be hell for you
      you are going to play vs f14/f16 and you will keep dying .
      any jet at 11BR is going to be vs f14/16 so only buy things below that .
      the reason war thunder put those jets is to revive the high tire matches so it wont be f14/16 vs f14/16 match, and after you buy this jet at 11 BR you will want to spend more money to a lower tire jet why? , your dying and not having fun remember?
      even i , A player with 2000 hours i wont buy those jets .

    Idk why you would spend 70 buckos on anything, get stuff on sale always plus there's good alternatives in the tech tree usually anyways. I didn't want to spend another 30 buckos for a premium for USSR aircraft, especially since I was already at 10.3 thanks to the SU7BMK and me grinding with other vehicles as well so I put a talisman on the Mig 21 SMT for 8 buckos... hell of a deal imo

      I think the mig29 will come very soon for Germany considering that Russia already has a more advanced mig 29 than the Germans had (Germany won't have the fat back mig29). As far as I'm aware the Germans only operated a small number of mig 29s and only of the types 9-12 and mig29ub which is the trainer. So truth be told we could get it as soon as next patch

      it's a feature of this time period, there aren't that many planes aside superpowers as minor nations almost stopped to develop their own aviation industry and generally focused on limited types of aircraft in usage. It's hard to develop an indeginious fighter and even harder to develop a good one. But the big two have a big list of prototypes for premiums.
