Sights for 21st MiGs
« on: February 08, 2023, 01:56:53 PM »
Currently, only third gen MiG-21s have a full working gunsight while other models reduced to WW2-era collimating sights only. This makes it a particularly interesting task trying to shoot anything in the air with them.

In fact, all first gen MiG-21s had "computing sights" which was basically just a gyrosight with radar rangefinder - which is not that dissimilar from how gunsights on Sabre in Il-2 1946 function.

Thus, would it be possible to give first gen 21s such sights for air to air?
