How to fly the MiG:
Not dying.
this tutorial doesnt work for me because of F-14A spam :v
@@alexpayne2662 skill issue
The locking issue is ping related usually. IR missile lock trails the target or sometimes can't lock for a while when you have ping.
i wish players start using BVR tactics like some people do in DCS, like Squad tactics Mig-21 use to close the range with more modern jets
It's a free to play game. There's no fuckin brains in any of the community. Enjoy the big maps while you can because the tards are gonna cry for them to be removed. And it's gonna happen.
@@CrispyTurtl3 DCS is free to play too, big maps will not go anywhere because Gaijin is creating the space for the Fox 3 that will come between this and next year
@@RogueBeatsARG I can only hope. This game became 40x better over night because of this implementation of maps.
@@CrispyTurtl3 agree
@@CrispyTurtl3 game became fun over a night
If you're struggling to figure out how to use the Radar Cue (the little selector line) this is for you. You need to first, go into your options and disabled the radar target selection thingy. Second you need to set the axis keybinds in your options. I have mine on my Arrow keys. Hopefully that helps. For the keybinds, make sure you DONT put relative control on and DONT set a keybind to enable and disable the cue.
What is the radar target selection thingy
@@roach3286 It’s the 2 lines on the radar scope you can hover over enemies you want to lock I think. It’s useful when you have a particular target you want to lock.
How do I set up the ability to “tilt” the radar up and down? So I can fly straight and down with the radar for example.
@@bpop2148 you need to turn off “constant radar altitude” in settings, and then set controls for the tilt axis.
@@LennieThePolarBear Ok I will try this out, thank you!
i would recommend using tws on the mig29, or on any plane that can use it. it gives you important information when it comes to target prioritization WITHOUT letting the enemy know you are targeting them. also i would also always use the fuel tank. when you're on the deck, you use a ton of fuel with afterburner. getting up to speed and then zoom climbing should use up almost all the fuel in the tank anyways. weighing less on takeoff is kinda irrelevant when you can always just use afterburner when you want to shed weight, and the advantage of being lighter in a dogfight is lost if you're having to hold back on using your afterburner to not run out of fuel.
Thanks much , helpful for the splinter!
Good video man we need more strategy videos like this
:)
Dang 9/23/22 the day we celebrated 5k subs and I said I could wait for 10k. Now it’s almost 20k awesome content mat
we need to grow LARGER AND LARGER hahaha thanks for the support man! :)
Couldn’t wait*
Im close to tier8 ussr and i really needed this
MatAWG you may find this tip interesting. I just tried it after learning it from another TH-camr.
It’s a way to mimic IRST with the R27er.
Basically you lock the enemy, fire the R27, then almost immediately release your lock while maintaining soft-lock tracking with TWS.
After a few seconds, the missile will be close enough that if you re-lock with a hard lock, it’ll find and hit the target.
The purpose of releasing lock is that the enemy will likely not go evasive against your missile. When you re-lock a few seconds later and they go evasive, the missile will already be so close they won’t have enough time to dodge it.
I don't understand, so what is the purpose of the IRST?
@@joaopaulovianaladislau4105 IRST basically let’s you lock onto an enemy without making them aware that they are being locked-on to. If an enemy doesn’t know they’re locked onto, they won’t see a missile coming.
So this method explained above makes the enemy aware of your lock when you first lock and fire the missile and at the end when you re-acquire the lock to guide the missile to the target once it’s close enough.
At least until gaijin implements missile launch warning systems.
@@Takemura76 I know what the IRST does, I just didn't understand its purpose in your explanation. But thanks for the clarification.
A suggestion I'd like to give out is take some time and watch Growling Sidewinder's (www.youtube.com/@GrowlingSidewinder ) videos, both for BVR and dogfight. The missiles may be different and the aircrafts may be more advanced, but most of the stuff you can see there can be modified and extrapolated for War Thunder.
Also, as Mat mentioned, remember that as long as you stay low enough, RADAR missiles will not deliver. No matter how much it looks like it's guiding and it's gonna hit, if you commit to the ground the're gonna miss and hit the ground. This will only fail if the splash damage of the missile hitting the ground gives you significant enough damage, so be wary of that (although the vast majority of times this is only true for AIM-54s, which can be outmaneuvered or notched without too much struggle, and they're easy to recognize thanks to their extremely long burn time). As stated above, this only works for SARH and ARH missiles (at least in the current state of the game), so an IR guided missile such as an AIM-9 or an R-60 will still, most likely, deliver if you don't defend properly. Except for observing how the missile guides and the position of the shooter (e.g. a missile from 10 kms will almost 100% be radar guided, while one from less then a km will likely be an IR guided), you can not tell the difference unfortunately, so keep an eye out.
Good luck out there, fellow pilots.
Really enjoyed this video. As a complete noob with the Mig29 it’s helping me learn it.
Yeah it really helped I got it yesterday I tried one match with this tactic and got 4 kills

@@panzerlite8108shoot at the F14
@@DexCC It's a Mig-29. You literally can't tell which one an F-14 is and you have to maintain lock to do that :|
I would find it useful to know more about radar missiles. like when can you forget about them after you shoot them why they do certain things. why they explode after two seconds. best angles to shoot them at and which radar mode. which radar modes work from behind or from the side etc...
TH-cam is definetely your friend on this: there's lot of videos around radar guided missiles in war thunder (how to use them, how to defend from them, how they work etc.), but I'd suggest to at least watch Tim's Variety's videos on radars and radar guided missiles.
A new version should also come fairly soon.
This is the main video: th-cam.com/video/lF-8jutRymk/w-d-xo.html
This is a quick video about news concerning radars in the 'Apex Predators' update: th-cam.com/video/8eSvmCFqDek/w-d-xo.html
This is a video about missiles (I'd suggest to watch it all but if you don't have time just skip to the SARH and ARH chapters): th-cam.com/video/v8j3kJwm_Eg/w-d-xo.html
mat experimenta depois usar os flaps do mig 29 quando manobrando em baixas velocidades (450-550 kph), parece que agora eles tem impacto positivo na curva.
I out turn F-16s using the takeoff and landing flaps
the real missiles are the friends we made on the way.
It really feels like R-60's dont do damage any more
Is there any difference between SRC PD and TWS in terms of quality, because I do like the additional intel I get by using TWS?
I don't think so
TWS automatically soft locks a target that your radar sees, and you can quickly switch targets to see where every person within your radar range. Even though regular PD can see this too, sometimes a target only pings once on your radar, so sometimes you miss some information.
TWS is an easy way to visually see where multiple aircraft are without letting them know of your presence.
@@Boris_The_Turtle Thx for the explanation, however I was aware of how these systems work. My question was referring to the ingame mechanics and if Gaijin had made changes to them.
@@hamilkarbarkas8711
no changes were made this patch in that aspect.
Could you make/show how to operate the radar? I have seen that you can move/change the target with the arrow keys but I don't know how to configure them :c
Mat How do you switch targets with mig29 I see you are switching targes as there are many. Is there a way of doing that?
Cut after burner helps to use chaff or u just made that in case an IR is comming
ive yet to die from someone shooting a msl at me from BVR in this new update
however when the enemies come closer it is a different story
very useful ty :D
Yeah tats cool and all, but the thing is how do you play it stock, as well as the F16
Great video (as always)! I wanted to say though, Fox 1 is for a SARH missile, Fox 2 is for an IR missile, and Fox 3 is for a BVR missile. Not your fault, just wanted to share some information.
Not correct fox 1 is semi active seeker fox 2 is indeed ir and fox 3 is active seeker
I can't reset my radar axes how do you do ? something to check in the settings?
do certain countries only get put in matches with other countries? like as an example the U.S, and Sweden, but not USSR. i’ve been told that this is what happens but i don’t know if that’s true or not.
Everyone can fight everyone there is also Mixed Battles where you have to fight your own nation
I avoid climbing over 5500 m because of trace that enemy can see from 30km~
how long you have to MAINTAIN your look on the target?
Lol 5k SL for a top tier kill :/
@MatAWG How do you change from SRC PD HDN to TRK PD HDN???? with 100KM
When you tilt your radar how do you get it back to normal ?
Attempting to find bindings for all these radar modes is so tough on a Xbox remote
Same on PS
@@saltyguerrilla I legit don't have a countermeasure button anymore I need it for the radar modes so I gotta get really creative now
@@Alonsooooo1 bind your gear toggle to RB + Up on the D pad and have the counter measures set on just Up on D pad. Bind your look activation to the right thumbstick (push it down) to be able to look around without having to remove your thumb off the stick. X + A should be used for secondary weaponry selection to cycle your missiles. Y + B is what I use to cycle through the radar modes (basically the most important thing).
@@dreboii6890 yessir I Actually just implemented a very similar binding to my current set up, thanks man
I just got this thing and. I'm so hyped about the r27s cause I've never used them that My tism brain won't focus on my surroundings so I die a lot lmaao
how long you have to MAINTAIN your look on the target?
Can you bring some attention to the rwr again plz devs really really really need to give good ol rwr some love
How do you get that radar screen on the right
It is 1:52 AM (in Moscow) I want to sleep but you post videos. So I cannot sleep. GO TO BED MATTHEW:3
Mig-29 isn't what she was at the beginning, however SMT IS even better now
Can you make a Video aboud the new Vr update for console ?
this fucking thing is so incredibly frustrating to use. I lock people at like 30km and the lock just disappears. Im sure its user error but I played the F14 and the MLD and both radars felt like they were more reliable when it comes to maintaining locks.
For the radar, what key binds do I need to move the target selection thingy?
Think you have to manually bind them in controls, should be called something along the lines of ‘select radar/IRST target lock’ , or its the radar cue axis I think
@DownloadPizza You also might want to disable "constant radar elevation" and bind radar tilt axis if you want your radar to look up or down.
He did a video covering it. Its absolutely necessary. I highly recommend lockpicking.
how can i make hmd work on console in free look mode?
Oh the high altitude thing would work well for YOU of course. Me meanwhile I do the exact same fucking thing and I get pinged to death by four enemy planes who seemingly break my lock instantly and then fuck me over by NEVER EVER BREAKING THEIRS NO MATTER WHAT I DO
i CANNOT wait for the f-15
Fox 3, Dive, climb, repeat
@@RogueBeatsARG Yes, it would be interesting: American planes will dominate BVR because of the amraams but will need to avoid getting close to russian aircraft because of the r73
@@canaldopau7226 R77 exists
@@RogueBeatsARG Yes but most early russian 4th aircraft didn't historically equip them, the first fulcrum that got the r77 was the S variant and could carry only 2 of them, for the su27 the first version that got the thing was the su27sm (we'll need to wait a lil bit for it as it is a late 90s aircraft), in comparison the f15C can carry up to 8 aim120
@@canaldopau7226 Gaijin probably going to add R77 early to compensate
educate the newbies with standard knowledge yes!
I need to know how to turn without mouse. So keybinds I guess
POV you tried to copy the playstyle to try it but die to a AIM-54 everygame despite notching and doing literally every possible thing to evade.
Skill issue easiest missile to dodge
not remotely true lol@@DexCC
does this apply to the ussr mig 29? i don’t get why so many people choose the german one more than russia. russia mig 29 needs more love.
Probably because German plane grind is a lot better
Prefiro usar o TWS HND pra achar os alvos mais facil no hud pra diferenciar oque o cara ta fazendo fica mais facil saber se ele ta subindo que nem um idiota sem precisar de lock
2:50 did you know that air resistance, at least in real life, is really high at near mach 1. Thus you should probably avoid climbing at mach 1 and climb at mach 0.95 or something.
That doesn't make sense. If you are already at mach you are currently overcoming that. And you should always climb as fast as you can, climbing at mach 0.95 is always slower than mach 1.
@@Frozander You can climb in a steeper angle at mach 0.95
@Frozen Man Irl the air resistance causes turbulence and more extreme energy loss. At mach .95 you can climb streeper. Also at exactly mach 1 you are technically transonic, as in currently breaking the sound barrier.
@@Frozanderno it's true, you should fly just under mach 1 until you hit thinner air. Rockets do this as well.
We need radar guide Or just me
Lmao that part where you say “oh my god” because someone team-killed the guy in front of you.
Why do people launch missiles at enemies caught up in tight dogfights with friendliest?
Just go guns or wait for a shot! I’ve died so many times to a random missile fired from 10km away at the person I’m dogfighting - hitting me instead.
Sigh
IKR!!! ...even punishing those noobs with the highly negative costs for Friendly Fire kills do not force them to think twice, because they just go to do RETARDED BOMBING for like 10 missions to compensate aaand when they pick again air-to-air armament THEY JUST GET GREEDY AGAIN AND DO NOT CARE ABOUT ANY FRIENDLIES!!!
Yes but can you explain in fortnite terms pls
Bro u can say what you want but the f-16 adf and MLU are better than the Mig-29(all versions) here are the reasons:
1.better it middles aim-9L (not as flare resistent as in the past but still kind of flare resistent
2.better turn fighter (it it a lot more manuverable in a doghfight especaily at low speeds
3.aim-7m has better range and has a better close range capability
The R-27ER is just better in speed and 30gs at mach5.8 is nothing I dodged it a lot of times in the f-16
I am not trying to to beef it’s just my opinion Matt I would love to prove it to you sorry if my English is not that good
Você é brasileiro?
sou sim mano!
big maps suck balls imho
Your flying high strategy never works for me even if I copy/paste all your actions.
Learn to split throttle
Its not worth learning. It works but its too situational, and its not enough to really affect the dogfight.
First
Now show us how to play the Mig29 stock without any upgrades because most of us dont get those planes with all upgrades.
