As for the Soviet-built MiG-29s already in Iranian service, they have been modernised domestically and continue to be assigned to defend the capital Tehran reflecting their elite status. Their numbers were also supplemented by fighters which fled from Iraq during the 1991 Gulf War and were seized by Iran, which brings the fleet size to an estimated 30-35 fighters.
