Re: MiG-29 in Iraq
Hi Tango,
When is that image from if i may ask, is it recent? Is that MiG-29 a gateguard somewhere in Iraq? Looks in fairly good condition.
Thank you.

It is 29040, one of the modified aircraft.

Re: MiG-29 in Iraq
I believe its the "MiG29B" modified as buddy-buddy refueller
Re: MiG-29 in Iraq
Last known location of the 29040 and 29062 was Taqqadum/Tammuz AB.
Perhaps the display is somewhere on the airbase area.
MiG-29 modification: just take a look at where the APU-470 launchers for the R-27 are mounted - on the intermediate
wing hardpoints (#3 and 4).
The launchers do not fit in that position by default (the mounting points of the launcher are spaced more widely).
Iraqi technicians made a indigenous adapter for the rear-mount to make it fit to the stations 3+4.
The stations 1+2 (innermost) are said to have been modified to take external fuel tanks.

Re: MiG-29 in Iraq
المصادر اتفقت على ان استخدامها كان محدود وقسم ذكر انه تم اسنعمالها ومصادر تقول انها كانت تحت التدريب حيث وصلت للعراق عام 1987 ..
