MiG-29 OVT and MiG-35

The Mikoyan MiG-35 (Russian: Микоян МиГ-35, NATO reporting name "Fulcrum-F") is a further development of the MiG-29M/M2 and MiG-29K/KUB technology. Classified as a 4.5 generation fighter aircraft, the only existing prototype is the third modification of the existing MiG-29M2 airframe which previously served as MiG-29M2 model demonstrator. The MiG-35 is now classed as a medium-weight aircraft because its maximum take-off weight has increased by 30 percent which exceeds its previous criteria of classification.

The MiG-35 was officially unveiled when the Russian Minister of Defence, Sergey Ivanov, visited Lukhovitsky Machine Building Plant "MAPO-MIG".[2] Its vastly improved avionics and weapon systems, notably the new AESA radar and the uniquely designed Optical Locator System (OLS), relieves the aircraft from relying on ground-controlled interception (GCI) systems and enables it to conduct independent multi-role missions.

The aircraft is being marketed under the designation MiG-35 (single seat) and MiG-35D (dual-seat) for export. MiG Corporation had their first official international MiG-35 presentation during Aero India 2007.

@sukhoi235

I keep forgetting, which models of the MiG29 and/or MiG35 have the Thrust vectoring?

[sukhoi235]

@boffinboy100

MiG-29OVT and MiG-35. I think though it can be used on MiG-29K/KUB and maybe SMT.

Why we did not have mig35 during the NATO attack on Serbia, a shame because I would of American and Turkish F16C fell like shit from the sky, their pilots already crying like pussies when they are supposed to enter our airspace, fuck it we only had 12 mig29A and Others mig21bis and we still had the balls to stand up to more than more powerful enemy !!!!!!!! But I hope that next time will not be so !!!!!!!!!!! LONG LIVE RUSSIA AND MIG35 !!!!!!!!

This plane needs a REDBULL logo and a STOLICHNAYA logo.

@Zbyszkoz Not true. Even India said the US has better weapons and systems. The Pak-Fa's stealth cannot ever get a lower RCS than the F-22 unless its shape dramatically changes, which isn't going to happen. Russian officials have even said that increased stealth comes at too great of a cost. Fact is that the PAk-Fa will be less stealthy than the F-22; it's avionics will be inferior, and it will be less powerful.

[Zbyszkoz]

@TheTequilaShooter only PAK FA has 6th generation avionic end missile. about PAK stealth, wait for next 2 years .

[TheTequilaShooter]

Continued... the ability of either the F-22 or 35; and now, it's doubtful that it will be able to supercruise, all of which are requirements to be a 5th gernation fighter.

[TheTequilaShooter]

@Zbyszkoz Here are some FCTS: Russian officails have stated that the Pak-Fa does not meet the defintion of a 5th generation fighter right now due to two reasons: 1. It's not stealthy enough; and 2. It's avionics are not up to such standard. Plus, you add in that Russia is having difficulty building its specified engines, and there's is doubt that they may never be built to the desired specifications. So, the ariplae is not nearly as stealthy as a F-22 or 35, its avionics are no where

[Zbyszkoz]

@TheTequilaShooter US start F-22 production after 50% test !!!! the same happen to US with AESA . TEST MUST BE COMPLETED 100% .M U S T !!!!!!!, that's way Germany don't start production own AESA.

[Zbyszkoz]

@TheTequilaShooter Germany confirm about AESA ,West need more time finish 100% AESA.

[Zbyszkoz]

@TheTequilaShooter PAK FA weelbe first on the world 100% 5th gen stealth fighter
