The aircraft with the serial number 2960526377 was deli-
vered from the Soviet Union to the 11th slp. (Fighter Air
Regiment) in Zatec AB in late 80’s. This was one of ten
MiG-29As delivered that were capable of carrying the
RN-40 nuclear weapon. This capability was removed
from the aircraft to satisfy conditions imposed by in-
ternational nuclear disarmament agreements. In all,
Czechoslovakia took delivery of eighteen single
seat and two two-seat MiG-29s from the Soviet
Union. In October, 1993, the 11th slp MiG-29s
were transferred to Ceske Budejovice to the
1st slp. Over the course of dividing up assets
between the Czech Republic and Slovakia
in 1993, this aircraft remained in the Czech
Republic, and became a part of a contro-
versial agreement that saw the Czech
MiGs go to Poland for eleven W-3A
Sokol utility helicopters. Today, this
aircraft ies with the Polish air
force with the bort number
‘77‘.
