The development of the MiG-29K aircraft was preceded by the deck landing trials carried out on several prototypes using the carrier-based navigation equipment and arrester hook. The MiG-29E first flight was performed on 23 July 1988.On 1 November 1989, in the same day with the SU-27K, The first landing of MiG-29K on the ‘Tbilisi‘ aircraft carrier deck ( its present name is ‘Admiral Kuznetsov‘).

The MiG-29K multirole carrier-based fighter is designed to air cover the ship grouping, gain air superiority and destroy sea surface and ground targets with guided high-precision weapons, day and night, in any weather. The aircraft is optimized for deployment on carriers of medium water displacement.
