The USAF's 480th Fighter Squadron took part in the "Thracian Star" exercise at Graf Ignatievo in Bulgaria and went against Bulgarian Mig-29, Mig-21 and Su-25 jets.

Here is what Capt.Lubomir Slavov , a highly experienced Mig 29 pilot has to say about going against the F-16. IAF fans are going to like this!
I took a photo of the the January issue of this respected magazine which I don't want to name here.

One more reason to chose MIG 35 as MRCA

after reading posts, i think MIG 35 is designed to fight f 16 block 56 and higher versions.
long live MIG 29! the conquerer of f 16!

Anyone surprised to hear a MiG pilot jerking himself off about the theoretical greatness of his bird? In real life they're good for one or two things, defecting to enemy bases and getting shot down before their radar picks up the aggressor.

this is all that a brother show the respect for his own bird.
i dont believe in this artical.

because for some reason the same - Bulgarian air force want f-16 for their new mmrca.

their new tender is out yesterday - and they want not new but second hand f-16.
this is previous tender:
