Egypt signs $2 billion deal for 50 MiG-35 fighter jets from Russia

This shows you have no clue about the 1973 war..Egypt attacked with 100 000 men and Syria with 80 000 men while Usrael mobilised 400 000 men on top of its regular army..plus volunteers from Europe, the US, South Africa, Australia and more..all dual citizens..So it was a ratio of 2:1 for Usrael and still defeated and forced to capitulate with a face saving peace deal concocted by its most staunch supporter the US.. So Try to get your facts right before pulling comments from thin air..
If you say so...why not say 1 million why stop at half a million

Its callef grandure delusion
 
. . .
You know isreal population was less than 2.5 m in 1967..one word dont be stupid
We are talking about 1973 or are you stuck in time..How can you be so dumb.. not knowing what you are talking about..

Wait a minute,the Mig-35 isn't in full production yet,is it? What's going on? These are Mig-29s,right?

The single seater is tagged as the MiG-29M and the 2-seater is the MiG-29M2. They're essentially the same exact thing as the MiG-35 with the exception of the AESA radar and built-in target designator which aren't in the MiG-29M/M2. Otherwise, the airframe, avionics and all sensors are identical and this MiG-29M/M2 in the EAF is able to target designate by carrying the T-220 pod which the EAF has for every single jet. So it's essentially the same thing minus the AESA radar.

The MiG-35 was also supposed to have the forward looking infrared sensor (FLIR) added to the bottom of the right engine but there's rumors that MiG either excluded, made a separate pod for it or installed a different type of FLIR than originally intended but we won't know exactly what they did until the production model comes out.

Either way, if the EAF was to order more of these jets, they would definitely get the MiG-35 with the AESA of course and possibly upgrade the radar in their Ms, but most likely keep them the way they are. It would be great to see them with at least 100+ of these jets to make up for the number of MiG-21s they retired, as well as the F-7 AIRGUARDs which flew out of Hurghada and patrolled the entire Red Sea and south eastern coast.

You can see the pod hanging on the bottom of the engine nacelle in this early pic of them being tested in Russia.

is the AESA ready ?

According to MiG, yes. They mentioned the original AESA was actually ready a while ago, they just weren't happy with its weight and range at 120km. They got the range to 260km and the weight (IIRC) at 120kg and testing showed great results.

The interesting side bit is Sukhoi started building the Su-57's radar while MiG was going through their radar issues and they finished it before the MiG's radar was ready and it's actually much better than the MiG's as well as much much faster.

Is the BAF interested in the MiG-35? I haven't followed the thread in a little while. Great discussion on that BTW. You guys are brutally tough on them lol.

Bangladesh was negotiating between the Mig-35 and SU-30 with a European AESA radar.. it has 8 Mig-29 BM..

The MiG-35 is a capable warbird..

It has nine hardpoints, enabling the combat aircraft to carry a wide selection of missiles, rockets and bombs including Kh-31A anti-ship missiles with active radar seekers, the Kh-31P anti-radar missiles, Kh-29TE missiles and KAB-500Kr TV-guided bombs..
