AIROD MIG-29NM



The aircraft proposed by Airod's Aerospace Technology Systems Corporation, in conjunction with Malaysia's Sukhoi Technical Centre, would receive a new high-resolution, fire-control radar; improved cockpit ergonomics; and better avionics, while the type’s airframe life would be extended to 6,000h from the current 4,000h.

In addition, the aircraft would have greater commonality with Malaysia’s fleet of Su-30MKMs. The work would be done in Malaysia under licence from RAC MiG.

The Brunei Heli deal , any mention during LIMA?

It a done deal.. why would it be at lima?

Will be transferred to us second hand from brunei

Thought they need some upgrade or maintenance , so most likely need some kind of deals. LIMA is a good place to announce it , i guess not.

Only on September or so will be fully transferred, plus there news it been inspected by us.

There should no major maintenance need for those blackhawks, since even brunei dont regularly use them. Those blackhaws will be armed with weapon station.. only that i not sure or it been decided but i didnt notice

Why the desert camo

ATM going to deploy in mid east?

Testing and it free painting by airod

Wilk be changed later

THAAD usable against China's DF-31 missile: Global Times

The US's Terminal High Altitude Area Defense anti-ballistic missile system which will be deployed to South Korea can potentially pose a threat to China's national security as it has the ability to monitor the People's Liberation Army's DF-31 intercontential ballistic missile, according to Chinese nationlist tabloid, the Global Times.

"A neighboring country can have its own opinion on the possible deployment of the THAAD system here, sert up by US forces in South Korea," said Kim Min-seok, the spokesman of the South Korean Defense Ministry on Mar. 16 regarding China's opposition to the deployment. "But it should not try to influence our security policy." Under pressure from both China and the United States, debate is still going on in the nation about whether South Korea should accept the missile defense system or not.

Park Hwee-rhak, dean of the Graduate School of Politics and Leadership at Kookmin University said that the X-Band radar system of the THAAD missile can not be used to detect missiles launched from China, during a seminar held by JoongAng Ilbo based in Seoul. However, the Global Times said that the AN/TPY-2 radar system of the missile defense system has a detecting range of 1,000 kilometers. It can be deployed to any theater within a short period and be placed aboard cargo planes such as the C-5 and C-17.

If China wants to attack the US with its DF-31 ballistic missiles, the place for it to mostly likely launch the attack is either northern China or Manchuria according to Hans M. Kristensen from the Federation of American Scientists. Both those ranges are close enough for the THAAD system in South Korea to monitor the movements of the Chinese missiles according to the Global Times. The paper went on to say that North Korea is being used only as an excuse for US to contain China.

its much better then USA's universal camo

A potato sack is better than UCP

The problem with it is there's no such thing as universal

Yinchet ....

yesterday NST paper on Mig29 proposal


- RMAF Mig29 fly hours only between 1500~1800 hours, airframe is 4000. propose upgrade to 6000hrs = other 25 year usage
- no AESA radar upgrade.





seem different news on Mig29 fly hours. is ability rate is low?
i think mig29 fly hours seems very low if follow report. if so such low, better no need upgrade , still can use until 4000. but mainly upgrade new glass cockpit.
i still support new jet

Well I just asked about it.
basically for russia you need to look at the airframes flight hour and the airframe age which for our migs 25 years.
Also there is an doubt it can last for another 25 as the qoutes say mainly it is depend on the airframes conditions unless they change the whole airframes completely.
anyway these is the answer I get.
Perhaps atreyuangle have more info on these.

i still stick Mig29 only have 2000 airframe life or 20 year, same like Su-27, all 1990 an Russia jet fighter production only have 2000 airframe life.
china also start retirement soon for first batch su-27 getting in 1995 due to reach end lifespan.
at the end, dont think upgrade is good idea.
