MiG-29SM Fulcrum-C

Okay, now everyone is talking about the SMT upgrade. But, what about the Russian fleet of SM Fulcrum-C’s. Can anyone give me a status on them? How many are due to upgraded to SMT standard, and just how capable an aircraft is the SM. From what I know, it can carry the full range of Fulcrum AAM’s, including AA-8, AA-11, AA-10, and AA-12 missiles. It can be fitted with up to three external tanks. It can carry the full range of Russian unguided bombs and rockets, and, it has a limited PGM delivery capability with the AS-14, KAB-500, and a few other weapons. Just wondering what impressions are of this Fulcrum. It is probably my favorite variant, as it seems to offer good capability but without that ugly hump on the spine.
