it has always surprised me that you don’t see more loadouts on the MiG-21 that include four R-60’s on dual adaptors plus outboard wing mounted external tanks. Thus you have room for three external tanks and you still get four AAM’s. Food for thought anyways….

Here’s one:

You don’t see them that often because it is a very draggy loadout, plus the space between them is mighty small, might not be an operational loadout – remember that thread abouth the MiG-23BN with 500 kg bombs on the fuselage pylons and centerline fuel tank?

I suppose the photographer meant “african leader” – but since most of these behave as medieval kings, he’s not far off the mark

He said the PAC had all the plans to make JF-17 Thunder the world’s first weapon system that is able to carry all types of conventional and non-conventional weapons.

When you have a belly mounted gun like the Mig-27 and Mig-21 then ingestion of powder gasses can stall the engine.

On the MiG-21 gun gas ingestion was never an issue, the muzzle of the GSh-23 is several meters behind the nose intake.

You are sure it was 4-31? AFAIK the number used are contineously and as Italy received just 28 aircraft within Tranche 1, the last number should be 28.

Judging from the flags, it looks like a joint Russian-Indian program.
Not a bad idea to have the same engine for the MKI and MiG-27.
Fixed inlets are not such a problem for powerful engines, they only limit the maximum speed – which was anyway 1.8 mach for the -27.
Besides, when it’s loaded with bombs and A2G missiles max speed (past Mach 1) is not an issue, fuel consumption (range) is – that’s where it could benefit a lot from the turbofan vs. its old turbojet.
