This article also claims the L-150 pastel for the later prototypes MiG-29M (Fulcrum E) :: Ruslet .

Lately I’ve been trying to find footage of an air show/display of the MiG-29 showing how much more maneuverable it would be, especially at low speed.
TBF it’s been a struggle to find videos of the aircraft flying.
Until is stumbled upon a French documentary including why seems to be the 9.15 in the part corresponding to the presentation talking about it. Time code is 45:05 to 48:40.
I do think it’s the 9.15 due to better display of maneuverability and camo being the same as the 156, down to the flag + dogtooth elevator.
Correct me if I’m wrong, I think it has its place in the thread ;)

Did a light skim over the comments but haven’t seen anyone ask this yet:
Why can it only carry 2 R-27ER/ET missiles but 4 R-27R/T missiles?
Regardless, major +1, as it would actually make for a highly competitive Flight Model MiG-29 (and they tend to be quite lackluster in my experience)
Generally because of a weight restriction on certain pylons

Beautiful video! Yes it’s definitely a MiG-29M 9-15!

I love how successful this suggestion is, 94% acceptance is no joke. I’ve seen multiple ppl that aren’t even Russia mains getting excited with the possible addition of this plane.
We’ll get it soon 🙏

Come on Gaijin make it happen.
I want strong proper Mig-29 that can handle F-16’s, not some fatass SMT.

Not to set expectations too high but the instability alone, doing a quick calculation by making the lift done by the elevator positive instead of negative, at around 450kph at SEA level it should get ~0.3G extra normal overload in a sustained turn (weight increase included).
Considering it also has refined aerodynamics (especially for higher AoAs), stronger engines and improved intakes that should massively reduce the very high thrust loss it currently has at low speed…. This thing seems to be really a monster in flight performance, probably better than even the gripen.
No wonder the MiG-29K looks absolutely insane in airshows while weighting 1 ton more
