Pakistan relies mainly on 4 different kinds of fighter planes. F-16, JF-17 Thunder, Mirage III and F-7P are the names of these fighter planes. Mig-29 is less advanced as compared to JF-7 as Mig-29 is equipped with old technology which was engineered by Russia in 1973.
Yes MIG 29 is far superior to F16. MIG 29 engine can be maneuvered according to our requirement.
MiG-29 cost about $11 million.
The MiG-29 is a jet fighter aircraft designed in the Soviet Union.
India is more powerful than Pakistan because India had more troops. India had also a nuclear bombs and it had a strong air force. they have mig-29 and mirage.
5 times but has a remainder of 4
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_aircraft_of_the_IAF 110 Sukhoi SU-30MKI 39 Mirage-2000 56 MiG-29 130 MiG-27 226 MiG-21 110 SEPECAT Jaguar ---------------------------------------------------- 615 total, it seems.
According to wikipedia, a russian Mig 29 has a top speed of Mach 2.25 (2.25 times faster than the speed of sound). Whereas an american f 16 has a top speed of Mach 2+. So apparently they both r the same but statistically Mig 29 is faster.
The F18 can achieve Mach 1.8 or so at 40,000 feet. The MiG-29 can go faster, or around Mach 2.25 at altitude. The MiG-28 was never built.
as far as look is concerned they seem to b almost same but mig 29 is more efficient as far as vertical flying is concerned , I have personally seen them flying......................so mig29 is best...................................
The word MIG stands for Mikoyan Gurivech, an aerospace and defense aircraft company and was founded by Artem Mikoyanand Mikhail Gurevich, two Russians, as "Mikoyan and Gurevich." And, the company's headquarters are in Moscow, Russia's capital. so yes the MIG-29 is definitely a Russian airplane.
It will be unwise to compare these two aircrafts. But if said so, jf-17 is single engine aircraft therefore, the payload it will take will be much less. The other thing is that its thrust/weight ratio will directly depend upon the engine it carries. Currently it is said that the engine of JF-17 will be RD-93 which is used as one of the two engines in Mig-29 so in principle JF-17 should have atleast half the weight of MiG-29. JF-17 will be primarily used as air superiority aircraft on the other hand MiG-29 is a multi-role aircraft. The main advantages JF-17 will have over MiG-29 is the low maintenance cost and new airframe with composite materials.
