The Russian version of the MiG-29M (Mig-35) fighter will receive the latest electronic detection and tracking systems and electronic warfare, which will be equipped with laser detection and thermal detection system OLS-EU of the Russian company "Precision Systems and Instruments" (for Mig-35), which can identify all air, sea and terrestrial objects where the target is thermally infrared, then televised and identified Laser range, without issuing any radar emissions It provides a complete concealment of combat and a silent mode with passive monitoring capability, which is one of the most important things required during the coming air encounters around the world.
The Egyptian version will receive new
T220 / E cockpit anchors under the engine's air intake, announced by the Russian hardware and microcomputer in November, designed specifically for the S-35 and MIG-35 , And is responsible for monitoring and selecting the target with infrared systems or ultra-precision electro-optical systems, and to determine the distance and laser target illumination to direct the various bombs and missiles at an error of tens of centimetres.
The new version will include the active
MSP-418K active warfare system at the bottom of the fighter on one of the suspension points, operating in the
G-J band. It also includes
DRFM Digital Radio Frequency Memory to jam radar guided missile The way to create false fingerprints for the fighter to mislead various missiles such as the American AMRAAM AIM-120 and Mica-EM French radar rockets.
The newspaper said that the intensive modifications that Egypt will receive will increase the fighting capabilities of the fighter
MiG-29M / 35 to an unprecedented degree, especially in the tasks of monitoring and tracking and ground bombing through the new scoring hubs, which will make the Egyptian fighters outperform their counterparts in the arsenal The Russian air force will also make it a fierce competitor to the US F-16 and Saab Gripen. The Russian sources told the newspaper that the electro-optical detection systems on
the current Russian MiG-29 are excellent, but what the Egyptian version will get is definitely better In combat missions And Russia will later receive additional developments.
The Egyptian
MiG contract includes the delivery of at least 50 fighter jets to the Egyptian Air Force, estimated to cost more than $ 2 billion. Delivery will begin at the end of this year (2016) and end by the end of 2020.
RD-33MK engines for Egypt's 35 MW
Chernyshev Moscow Machine-Building Enterprise, the leading Russian fighter aircraft manufacturer of Russia's MiG RSK MiG, announced in a report on the results of the company's contracts. The report said the company received a contract worth 8.67 billion rubles ($ 135.7 million), on 17 November 2015, by an anonymous customer for the purchase of 92 RD-33MK engines, with delivery from 2016 to 2018.
This information coincides with what was previously announced that Egypt has contracted 46 MiG-35 Russian twin engine engines (92 engines). The RD-33MK engine is primarily designed to work on the MiG-29K and MiG-35 fighter jets, We can see from the previous information that the engine working on the Egyptian version of the MiG is the same as the MiG-35 fighter, which is the latest version of RD-33 engines and with an AESA radar, advanced electronic protection systems and Avionics, Egypt got its own version of the Mega 35.
Note: The RD-33MK has a 7% drive over previous versions and has been developed to reduce the thermal and visual footprint by adding a new Smokeless Combustion Chamber with an integrated electronic control system. -thrust nozzles for different angles, according to the customer's desire, to maximize the manoeuvrability. The engine has a minimum operating time of 4000 hours (20 years) and requires maintenance after 1000 hours of operation (5 years).
