Side number 16, is one of eighteen 9.12 MiG 29's purchased by the Malaysian military in 1995. Although based on the "Fulcrum A" air frame - readily identifiable by the dorsal spine's straight profile rather than the later Article 9.13's curved spine - but unlike most of those early jets now in scrap yards or in museums, the TUDM has reinvested in the jets bringing them up to a much newer, and more capable, standard.
Originally equipping two squadrons, the MiG's have been consolidated into a single unit because they have proven very expensive to maintain. Side number 16 is depicted as she would be for a typical Air Defense weapons load of 2 x R27R standard range SAR missiles (AA-10 Alamo A to NATO), 4 x R73 missiles (AA-11 Archer to NATO), and a centerline 396 Gallon External Fuel Tanks. Like a typical MiG 29N, it also carries an internal 30 mm cannon with 149 rounds, and Chaff/Flare countermeasures in the forward tail leading edge extensions.
Any Fighter Studios print can be customized with different squadron marking, different store configurations, names on the nose or canopy rail. To get yours started, click Personalized Print for more information or click Email with questions.
