Re: Gollevainen's quzz of the week

Well good awnsers but not exactly...This was the another MiG-29, the bigger one. In the late 60's and early 70's Soviets made up a competition to produce new fighters mach to the new american projects, F-16 and F-15. those projects where called LPFI and TPFI. While Sukhoi concerated in the heavy fighter project (TPFI) and MiG mainly on the light fighter project (LPFI) MiG also made a proposal in the TPFI program. And this drawing presents the MIGs suggestion for the heavy fighter...it was before when both MiG and Sukhoi went on the airframe concept evident in the Su-27 and MiG-29...

but the next one:

Hmm.... I doubt it. It has two wheel undercarriage, and the fin lacks the forward pointing attenna.
