AIRCRAFT #6334 - MiG-29SM Fulcrum C (Yemen [1990-] - 2002) and #5795 - MiG-29SM+ Fulcrum C (Serbia [1992-] - 2021)

Summary of Changes

For Yemen version only one of its load out options uses the AA-12 and it is a SEAD load out - 32440 Over 100 AA-12 were delivered to Yemen per SIPRI and as the most advanced AAW for the MiG-29 its likely to have been used primarily for air to air combat missions. Please add a pure AAW load / CAP load out : Suggest 4 x AA-12 and 2 x AA-11 + 1500 litre drop tank as Indian AF load out - 5272

For Serbian version it only has an all AA-12 load out which is unlikely: Load out 30901 has 6 x AA-12 but a more realistic option would be a typical mixed load out of 4 x AA-12 and 2 x AA-11 + 1500 litre drop tank as Indian AF load out - 5272 Plus would the Serb AA-12 be an R-77 or given current Russian prodction more likely an R-77-1?

Thanks.
