MiG-29K & KUB look the same externally( same canopy type too). The dual seat KUB has a seat in the back for the trainee pilot. In the single seat K, that seat is replaced by other equipment(?).

It is a F-5 for sure. The roundel's inner ring is white, so it can be the Libyan Air Force's (1969-1978, they used a roundel with an inner ring of white, according to Wiki uncle). Libyan AF had two different markings before the existing green one. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libyan_Air_Force#Marki...

The Libyan AF did operate some F-5A/Bs until 1969. These are Libyan AF F-5s in old Royal Libyan AF markings(not the present green roundels/finflash). The serial number of the one of the F-5s in that pic is 22553.

sandesh, I heard stories about 224 being re-raised. your post confirms it. But I am sure this happened only in the last six to eight weeks or so. Yeah and possibly with those newly built Jaguars by HAL. Quote from the article titled "Sanctity of Military Tradition" in V/2008 : It is howev...

Has anyone read the latest issue of Vayu(V/2008)? In one of the articles, it is mentioned that the No.224 Sqdn flies the Jaguar now(after retirement of MiG-23MFs) and that the No.2 Sqdn was number plated years ago. Can anyone shed more light on this?
