The Russian MiG-35 fighter was called an aircraft with unique capabilities, but in reality it turned out to be not so advanced. Moreover, the Mikoyan Design Bureau's development has not attracted interest in the international market. This is written by Bulgarian Military.
Analyst at the Center for Security Policy, Maya Carlin, stated that the MiG-35 is a "complete failure."
The MiG-35 is a multi-role fighter designed to perform various combat missions, including gaining air superiority, ground strikes, and reconnaissance. The aircraft is equipped with advanced avionics, including an active phased array antenna and an infrared search and track system.
The MiG-35 is equipped with a combined weapons control system, which allows it to carry a wide range of ammunition, including air-to-air and air-to-ground missiles.
According to Maya Carlin, the MiG-35 failed to gain the trust of potential buyers. The Russian aircraft lags behind its competitors — the F-16 and Rafale, she concluded.
