The MiG-29 is a legendary 4th-generation fighter, but its mixed reputation is hard to ignore. People jokingly call it a “fuel fighter,” or “a jet built to achieve air superiority over its own airfield,” and such jokes have a bit too much truth in them. The limited fuel supply is noticeable even in War Thunder’s fast-paced battles, and of course this wasn’t a secret in real life either. Designers and the military always wanted more fuel than the MiG could realistically carry.
