Kravchenko confirmed the completion of major deliveries of Russia&#8217;s MiG-29SMT as well as ship-based MiG-29s for Russia and India. However, she declined to say what outstanding orders were currently in production.<br\/><br\/> &#8220;What I can say is our production facilities are actually loaded. As for the contracts that we&#8217;re working on, we&#8217;re not at liberty to say,&#8221; she said.<br\/><br\/> Kravchenko described the MiG-35 as a fourth-generation fighter jet with some fifth-generation capabilities. Although its design is clearly not stealthy like the F-35 or Russia&#8217;s T-50, the company has tried to reduce its signature through the shape of the airframe, a &#8220;radar-absorbing&#8221; coating and electronic measures, she said. <br\/><br\/> The MiG-35&#8217;s RD-33MK engine has 12 percent more thrust compared to the MiG-29&#8217;s RD33, and the aircraft also has an active phased array radar.\u00a0<br\/><br\/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier this year, Sergey Chemezov, the head of Russia\u2019s largest defense corporation Rostec, told reporters about plans to develop a fifth-generation stealth fighter jet based on the MiG-29 with the United Arab Emirates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kravchenko confirmed MiG was involved on three major development programs\u00a0\u2014\u00a0a &#8220;prospective plane,&#8221; a long-range interceptor and a UAV\u00a0\u2014\u00a0but would not elaborate on activities related to a potential fifth-gen jet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Asked about the possible capabilities of a UAV, Kravechenko said it would have both armed and reconnaissance capabilities and reside in the lightweight to medium-weight range \u2014 hints that mean the company could be developing a competitor to General Atomics\u2019 MQ-9 Reaper or perhaps a follow-on to the &#8220;Skat,&#8221; an armed, low-observable UAV prototype developed by MiG.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A contract for 37 aircraft is expected after testing
