Jane's At the Controls is a new series providing a 'hands-on' briefing of what it is like to fly and fight in modern combat aircraft. The MiG-29 was introduced by the Soviet air-force just as the Warsaw Pact began to break up. Armed with a new generation of air-to-air missiles and capable of astonishing maneuvers that can give it to the edge against most modern interceptors, the MiG-29 remains one of the best fighter aircraft in the world today.
