IAS vs TAS? The max permissible IAS for the MiG-21Bis is 1300km/h or Mach 2.05 (whatever you hit first). That's not to say you can't go faster but you won't be able to fly much faster without stalling the engine. You shouldn't be able to reach 2400km/h TAS anyway, the maximum you should be able to reach is between 2200km/h and 2300km/h TAS.

Well I just reached a TAS of roughly 2200km/h without a problem. Flying ~Mach 2.05.

I posted a screenshot I took only a few minutes ago ... Mach 2.05ish, 2200km/h TAS. So yeah I can fly it perfectly fine to its max permissible top speed.

Aren't you the guy who demanded a false positive virus message be fixed but ignored all advice that would remove it?

I'm gonna say your "new bug" is user error.

The Virus thing is already Fixed but ED need to fix that problem

no they don't, its not something ED is able to fix. it is not EDs fault your AV is overtuned to be overly sensitive to everything it sees, its your choice to use that software and ED is in no way responsible for your inability to add an exception or change AV software.

I'ma go out on a limb and say your just reading your gauges wrong. I say this because the speed can be hard to ascertain compared to the Su-25T for instance.

I had no problem reaching MiG's max speed today. (Of course, you need to be relatively high to reach max mach or TAS before reaching max IAS)

You're probably reading it's instruments wrong.
IAS is indicated on the airspeed indicator, while TAS is indicated by a thinner pointer on Mach meter.

No, that is not a problem that ED can fix: problem is at AV product that is producing a false positive.

Do not continue with the accusations of a wrong target.
