MiG-29 low level…
Mmmmm….
Only if it comes with new signal processors etc…
The N001’s twist-cassegrain antenna:
Su-27’s N001:
Sapfir-23ML on a MiG-23ML
Orel-D58 on an Su-15:
Jamming a passive radar seeker is difficult! Emitting more radar signals just gives the seeker something else to home on.
The obvious solution is towed decoys…
I think what they want is a slimmed-down Bars.
You could easily scale down the Bar’s antenna to 680mm, while retaining a lot of compatibility. Range would be reduced of course.

This site says MiG-23MLA was an improved ML, taking features from the MiG-23P, but for VVS use.
There are two main theories:
1) It never existed- perhaps it was simply MiG-23ML Variant A (Warpac standard, as opposed to Variant B Third-world)
2) It was a late production MiG-23ML with an improved radar
Well, it has an RD-93 engine currently, so it would have to be something similar in dimensions, like F404, M88, EJ200.
Erm… no….
The WS-9/Spey is a much bigger and heavier engine.
I’m afraid not. Still looking at a database driven site, but no off the shelf solutions work how I want, so I’m looking at doing it myself.
