Jane's How to Fly and Fight in the Mikoyan Mig-29 Fulcrum: At the Controls [Anglais] [Broché]

Jane's At the Controls is a new series providing a 'hands-on' briefing of what it is like to fly and fight in modern combat aircraft. The MiG-29 was introduced by the Soviet air-force just as the Warsaw Pact began to break up. Armed with a new generation of air-to-air missiles and capable of astonishing maneuvers that can give it to the edge against most modern interceptors, the MiG-29 remains one of the best fighter aircraft in the world today.

Continuing the successful At the Controls Series, Jane's military hardware experts look at the excellent all-weather MiG-29 fighter, mainstay of the former Soviet air force. Simple, cheap, and reliable, the MiG-29 became its nation's frontline fighter, a job it has performed remarkably well for a decade. Special 30" full-color foldout details the MiG-29's instrumentation, capabilities, and tactics. 150 illustrations.
