The corrext way to fly the Phantom is go vertical, rocket up into the sky then roll over and dive on the Mig. You cant out turn the Migs but they don't have the power to follow in a climb. These fights will be much harder in 90 days or so.
Personally, I would recommend the MiG-21Bis more because it has the R-60Ms and you'll be able to score a few more kills quicker. With the MiG-19 you'll have to engage in dogfights most of the time which can be a problem because you'll just end up getting 3rd partied unless you have a team to fly with you. I do enjoy the MiG-19 because it's nimble and fast, but right now you'll likely be up against 20+ Phantoms who are all in chat together.
MiG-19 is from Razbam. Considering their willingness to hold their modules hostage vs the community without explaining anything that's going on, I'd go for the 21.
I have the Phantom, but I would NOT hop on a server unless I felt confident in using it! Just like getting a new aircraft in War Thunder, you have to learn the tactics of your new toy before you'll be successful!
@@gnr2871As one of the MiG 19 pilots in this video, I’ll say the MiG 19 weaknesses come from its tech and not it’s performance. Lack of all aspect RWR, horrible missiles, low ammo count for cannons and no flares. That’s really all I could think about, she still performs exceptionally well in the merge and will outrate pretty much any Blu-For jet except the Sabre
@@cleverlaziness It seems it’s best for me not to get in a dogfight with them. I have no issues taking down Mig 21s and 23s, but the 19 just out turns the hell out of me and if they get on my six I struggle to shake them. That being said I also have a tendency to not manage my speed too well in the phantom. All and all I just need more time in the aircraft getting to know it. It has given me a lot of respect for the 19 though.

Agreed. I got it today and I’ve got a lot of learning to do. I’m actually watching this video specifically to learn the Mig 19’s weaknesses.

Why not? It's not like youre getting shot down for real.
