7-7-2018: New photos
This photo was just published in twitter. Behind the pilot being interviewed there is MiG-29 with a RVV-AE BVR missile. The image is significant because it confirms the modernisation received a few years ago. Syrian MiG-29s have not been so used as MiG-21/23 or Su-22. They are the most modern type and have an advanced air to air capability. It is likely that the Syrian Air Force does not want to risk loosing them.
The last 2 appeared -as to mu knowledge- in July 2018. Note that the aircraft is in much better condition than MiG-21s or MiG-23s.
