Russia’s advanced Mikoyan MiG-35 fighter jet will be rolled out at the MAKS-2017 International Air Show, while demonstration flights are expected to take place at the Army-2017 international military forum, Chief Executive Officer of the MiG Aircraft Corporation Ilya Tarasenko said.
"We will roll out our MiG-35 aircraft at the MAKS-2017 air show, we also plan to hold talks on its export deliveries," he said.
Tarasenko added that the MiG-35 fighter jet would conduct demonstration flights at the Army-2017 forum.
The MiG-35 is Russia’s newest Generation 4++ multirole fighter. It is an advanced version of the series-built MiG-29K/KUB and MiG-29M/M2 combat aircraft. The fighter has improved flight performance, a state-of-the-art avionics system, and carries a wide range of air-to-air and air-to-surface guided weapons. Flight tests of the MiG-35 began in January 2017. The 2020 State Armament Program envisages the supply of the MiG-35 aircraft to Russia’s Aerospace Forces. Aerospace Forces Commander Colonel General Viktor Bondarev said earlier that more than 30 such vehicles were planned to be purchased.
