Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29 Fulcrum - History, Design, Performance & Dissection (Part 1)

This is from the article about the “Osa” radar. Perhaps they could have put it there, given its significantly smaller size?

Sadly only MiG-29UBT 9.52 had it. (It’s based of 9.17, hence the large spine.)

Standard RuAF 9.51/53s don’t have it.

quick search, found these

thats not the orignal source of them

first one seems to be from some spanish magazine

i know…
unless there is the original source, this is where i found them.

second one seems to be from some russian book about the Mig-29 family or the Mig-29M specifically

Was this same radar offered for the Yak 130? Some articles claimed that the base Yak 130 had OSA radar.

I think it was offered/proposed but not sure if the RuAF actually bought it.
