Auto Credit Based on DaDerpachu123's MiG-21bis

Warning! this is my first build where I tried to be historically accurate, so please dont murder me in the comments. The Mikoyan Gurevich MiG-21bis is an upgrade on the already capable MiG-21. It is equipped with more advanced technologies and has less drag. My model here is equipped with 4 R-60 SRAAMs and 2 R-27 AAMs. The guns consist of a singular, duel-barrel Gsh-23-2 autocannon with a fast firerate.

    @DaDerpachu123 try flying at 20,000ft for around 1-2 minutes while on fast forward. It will get there. Don’t turn on autopilot though

    @Mustang51 Oh, it does? in my trials, I have only seen it reach around 1,100mph.

    I don’t think it’s necessary though since it already hits 1300mph

    @Mustang51 Ok, I'll try it. I'll put the drag scale on the body to 0.1. Its not alot, but we're talking the entirety. I'll also bring up the power to 1.5

    @DaDerpachu123 add some drag points and then increase power. It flies 1300mph for me at 20,000ft though give it another try but wait a minute or two on fast forward until it gets to that speed

    @Mustang51 Well, I added some details to it, and I think it looks great. I am having a problem with the engine power however. I need it to reach about 1300 mph in TAS while keeping the current acceleration. Any ideas?

    It’s definitely looking a lot better! The wings and length of the fuselage fit much better but the elevator still isn’t exactly the right size or shape. Why not try adding some more detailing as well like insignias? Nevertheless though this is definitely an improvement. If you do anymore work to it show me an unlisted version of it and maybe I can help you out with a couple tips :)
