Full MiG-21S Review - Should You Buy It? - Great Plane, Meh Missiles [War Thunder]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 мар 2022
- The MiG-21S is a tier 6 Russian premium fighter that currently costs 8910 golden eagles and currently sits at 9.7BR. It has amazing speed and maneuverability, but lacks missiles and countermeasures. It's pretty much like a muscle car in that it goes fast, but lacks the luxuries, or even necessities, that many people require. This is your full MiG-21S review.

i bought it during my covid lockdown and loveled it with r3r`s. also missiling in head to heads are so satisfying
That are the radar ones right
@@dhimanigamelink2157 yes
The only reason I’m watching this review is because of the R3r’s and I need to grind out the Russian tech tree.
The R3Rs are actually quite good, they're just situational. You'd be surprised how many free kills you can score with them at high alt.
they pull a lot past 6km of altitude, great at taking down overconfident western fighters.
I think a mistake people often make, is judging missiles in a vaccum. Sure, the R3R is a statistically bad missile, but you're going to have better-than-usual success with it when firing at mach 1.2 at 6000m from your MiG-21S.
Thanks i needed this
I love this jet. While its basic missiles are poor I think that they are under rated. The main issue is that air RB and match making in general is trash. I would love to see these reviews with more than just air RB in mind. I know you talked about ground pounding n stuff but what about its best roll. Dog fighting in ground RB. Its amazing at using Vietnam tactics. Stay low and fast and pop a G91 with radar missiles. Even in ground RB im up tiered to 10.3 or higher most the time and most people dont all run 10.3 or 10.7 so it still has a decent chance. I wack F4s and 105s all the time trying to bomb allies. On top of that i find it very strong with the 3r missiles against helis. The standard 3s really cant lock on to any heli heat as its broken. Even if you do manage a lock its either very close or with a lot of the 9.0+ heli who have the anit lock or engine heat mods and your missile flys off course. I have air mailed sooooo many 3r missiles to enemy Yh-64s, G-Lynx and prem Hinds.
You should and I mean you NEED to try the F-13 it's... I just love it even the missiles are good at 9.3.
R-3Rs are great for head-on kills at high altitudes, just climb at the start of the match and there's a 50%n chance you'll get an easy kill. Then hang around at high altitude while the battle escalates, then dive down and join in.
I got mine few day ago and loving itas i was tempted to get the harrier gr1 but its in the britan air tree which is one of the worst at top tier
If only it had flares and R60 missiles it would be so good
The lazer m version has r60 am not sure if it has flares
@@Reposts_repostsyeah but that’s at 11.0 lol (also German)
found a mig-21 for sale for stupid cheap, enough even in my salary and now I keep getting recommended videos about it sad I couldn't get it as someone bought it before me.
quick question (if you read this)
is there anything around this br with better cas ability? I prefer rockets over bombs and dont like the su7 chassis for some reason.
Glad you asked! I'll say that the Yak-38 is probably a good middle ground. It has a ballistics computer for rockets and also has ATGMs. More importantly, it can carry up to 4 S-24B rockets, which is excellent. It also can perform decently well in air to air combat and can run with a mixed AA missile/CAS loadout.
i think you sleep on its CAS abilities - it can easily dodge stingers, the most common SAM at that br, and each of the 4 rockets it brings is a very easy tank kill.
Will wait for sale
I use this for cas and anti heli and it works wonders. But gets bricked by Sams all day
I’m want it lol but I’m going to wait for sales but the price isnt worth it
Bruh that intro has a sound effect from WoT but the guy talks about WT, the irony is amazing
IM really surprised this plane didnt get powercreeped,hopfully it will survive the next update
The R3R is actually good just somewhat inconsistent
Just got this for 50% off it is a super good plane but you need to be good at maneuvering so you don't get hit with missiles, overall it is for sure worth 5000 GE.
I've been conflicted between buying the mig 21s or the do 335, what would you say is more worth it.
@@gavinlightfoot5521personally I’d say MiG
@@gavinlightfoot5521 depends what you’re looking for the do is good in general and the mig is decent with a skilled pilot and is situational I can even get kills with the s24 rockets in ground rb with it
it is fun to see my enemies spamming flares while I am pointing my R3R at them, lol
people have wisened up to the r3r now so I wouldn't say its worth it anymore
is bmk still viable (worth its price) after it has lost its air spawn
Yes I grinded 2 tiers with it in 1.5 days
what is better premium yak-38 or mig-21s(r13-300)????
Faster and more agile missiles versus faster and more agile plane
How to play MiG-21S. Immediately takeoff, climb to 6-7Km orienting towards the edge of the enemy’s climb area, head on every harrier you can using R3-R without bleeding too much speed, dive on A-10’s at the back, then play like a vulture the rest of the game. Low speed targets, anything over 3km of alt is good for using the radar missiles, A-10’s are easy kills. Usually leaving most games w 4-6 kills
been doing this, my missiles fuck up or a-10s are braindead periodic flaring and i die to some rando who materalised in front of me
Nothing beats the Wyvern for grinding. Wyvern+Premium time+thunderer wager $$$
Actually the MiG-21 that he was talking about is 50 percent off so yea ima get it
This plane forces me to learn how to actually fly
I really have too disagree with the all aspect, rockets being mediocre. They’re only mediocre if you don’t know how to use them personally my method is I don’t shoot rockets unless I’m going Mach one to ensure faster hit time and only strike fast and high never low. I use this plane to grind Russian right now and it’s my only Russian plane that I’m using and I average 7 to 9 kills per match with this bad boy keep in mind I have spent over 1 million in crew qualifications and golden eagles for qualifications as well I can say after upgrading the crew, the jet perform so much better:)
well Yak-38 premium is not available...so this becomes more relevant, especially if you are trying to grind Russian tech
The harrier gr1 is the worst 10.0 in the game
How does this plane preform now?
I made this review earlier this month, haha. It performs all the same now as it did 3 weeks ago.
Harrier gr1 or mig21? Wich better?
Mig 21.
MiG-21
am i supposed to hear something when i get locked on? i just died from a missles and never heard any alarm
Not all planes have a radar warning system
Only planes with RWR will get electronic warning of a lock, only for radar missiles, and only within certain elevation angles (usually +/-45 degrees). Better to get used to judging whether or not someone is in position to fire, and preventing it
Wait for next 50% off sale to get this
Its when : )?
@@alixdesjardins651 summer and Christmas sale i believe, could be either 30% or 50%off
@@ddtskullbreaker By summer I will have my entire tech tree grinded out :v
@@amayu4139 i suck at air grinding, i get these just for CAS in combine battle. congrats on your grinding tho
What jet has amazing and accurate missles then?
yak 38
Why do you think that Harrier gr1 is amazing
wondering the same, ive struggled with it since xay one, but never used it 8n ground where i hear its really good
@@justinsane332 yeah I don't think he knows her one is the worst 10-hour the game it's missiles are really bad and it's live performance is the worst for any battle reading at that tier and is the slowest has the worst engine and I'm all the Harriers and is the highest of all the Harriers he gets more missiles for the worse than the American Harry is and the American hair is getaway lighter eframes and yeah and that's why the better knows I'm using text to speech and I'm in a car so this might not be right
@@idonotknowwhattonamemyself2197 the harrier is manouverable it has 9g rockets which is amazing but i feel like its skill isse on your part :)
I just bought this last night at 30% off, no research whatsoever and I’m heavily disappointed
Jak 38 or mig 21 s
mig21s defenetly, with yak you are gonna get 2 easy kills with r60 but it will get boring very fast as it requires no skill, at first you will perform worse in mig21s but after some time you will get much more fun and rp
Faster and more agile missiles versus faster and more agile plane. Player preference how you want to play with your food
My thing with this plane is i love it. The gun is so easy to aim and the plane itself PULL’s. However you are constantly uptiered to 10.3 due to the ONSLAUGHT of F-5c players
Do you think i should buy this instead of the su25k? Im pretty good with the f5c and im lvl 90 if it makes a difference
Honestly I ducking hate using that plane the middles suck buuut it has amazing climb rate and speed
You gotta go high an just abuse the R3R at high alt
@@IamVF301 hmm thank u
All I wanna know is: IS THIS THE PLANE TO GRIND TO THE Mig-29?!
Well considering it’s half off I’m thing of buying it.
I bought it yesterday, it took a little while to get used to (endless games with nothing) but when you get a bit used to it, you average 1-2 kills per game that gets you 10k rp and 20-30k sl which is pretty nice, it’s somewhat fun and you get used to cannons while kills with it are rare, they are extremely satisfying. The start is nerve racking but for only 30 bucks I’d say it’s worth it
DONT BUT IT!!! The mussels are awful
Harrier GR 1 is now a terrible plane didn't you know that?
200 rounds sucks.
It has the worst flight performance of a 10.0
It’s 50 percent off so ima get it u should to
The missiles are soo bad 😞💀
I bought it today, worst choice of my life.
Dont buy this trash
