 Mig Pilot
The only thing the MiG had in common with the F-15 was the relative ease in handling, he said.
“If the MiG driver survives to the merge [within visual range], he has the advantage because of the off-bore site weapons capability,” he said, referring to the helmet-mounted site that guides missiles in the direction in which the pilot is looking.
But, as he pointed out, the MiG may never make it to the “merge” because U.S. and western pilots are likely to identify the aircraft miles out and shoot it down before the Fulcrum pilot has a fighting chance.

Mig 29 Fulcrum is one of the best fighter jet in the world and it was also the most feared conventional weapon by the Western world during the cold war.
This book illustrates how the Mig 29 came about into existence, its development over the years, all the variants with a lot of detail background information.
Also the author tends to be a little bit biased towards the MiG aircraft.Especially when you read the MiG-29 vs. the rest part.He has some figures to support his claim but most of them are opinions and assumptions.In this respect he's more close to sales representative from MiG than a true aeronautic journalists or analist.
