The production of MiG-35 fighters may be revived for transfer to the Air Force of North Korea. This was reported by the Voennoye Obozreniye publication with reference to foreign sources.
The authors noted that the aircraft was first "pulled out" of reserve and sent to destroy drones. After that, the production complexes related to the MiG RSC came to life.
Western media are already openly writing, referring to data from their intelligence services, that Russia is in full swing preparing to start mass production of a batch of MiG-35s for the DPRK. They have even calculated that the country's need for modern fighters is estimated at 200-220 units.
Flight tests of the MiG-35 began in 2017. General Designer of the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC, part of Rostec) Sergei Korotkov stated that the MiG-35 had already been involved in combat operations. At the moment, the issue of its mass production has not yet been resolved.
Earlier www1.ru reported that MiG-31 fighters used hypersonic Kinzhals for the second time in three days.
