Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29M/M2 Multirole Fighter Variant
The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29M/M2 is a deeply modernized multirole branch of the MiG-29 family, developed with digital flight controls and expanded day-and-night air-to-air and air-to-surface capability. The single-seat M and two-seat M2 forms extend the Fulcrum design into a later-generation frontline fighter distinct from the earlier 9-12/UB family and the carrier-based MiG-29K/KUB branch.
