The aircraft is equipped with two Tumansky RD-33 dual-shatt, axial-flow turbofan engines with variable air intake ducts and variable exhaust nozzle sections. ‘Two air intakes are installed in nacelles below the wing roots. For foreign object damage (FOD) prevention, the air intakes are closed after landing and generally on the ground. With the intake ramps. closed, engine air is taken in through a series of louvers in the upper surface of the wing root. Each engine drives an associated engine gearbox (ENG GBX). Both ENG GBX are interconnected to the aircraft accessory gearbox (GBX). For engine start, an auxiliary power unit (APU) provides torque ‘to the GBX which drives all accessories. Normally, the thrust-to-weight ratio is greater than 1 (depending on the aircraft load and configuration). It enables high velocities, high rates of acceleration and high turn rates. The aircraft shape is characterized by an integrated fuselage-to-wing design which forms an overall airfoil The almost fiat bottom of the fuselage is an integrated part of the lower surface of the airfoil. The aircraft structure comprises cantilever low-wing monoplane wings with leading edge flaps (LEF), trailing edge slotted flaps and ailerons. The tail of the cantilever structure includes two vertical stabilizers with small inset rudders and two tailerons. Dual irreversible hydraulic actuators position the control surfaces. Electrical power is provided by an AC and a DC generator driven by a gearbox. Two batteries supply emergency power. The fuel supply system incorporates internal fuselage and wing tanks, single point refueling and a fuel tank vent system. An external centerline tank (CL tank) and two wing drop tanks (WDT) can be installed. The hydraulic power supply system provides pressure to the hydraulic actuators. Two separate and independent systems supply hydraulic Pressure to the main and to the boost system. An emergency pump supplies pressure in the event of a main pump matfunction. The pneumatic pressure supply consists of a main and an emergency system to control and pressurize aircraft systems. The landing gear is hydraulically operated. It includes pneumatically powered brakes, anti-skid for all wheels and nose wheel steering. A drag chute contained in the aft section of the fuselage significantly reduces landing roll distance. A rocket-assisted ejection seat is designed to provide safe escape under minimum speed / zero altitude conditions. It is fully automatic throughout the ejection sequence. The oxygen system is divided into a main and an emergency system. The main system supplies oxygen to the pilot during normal flight conditions and supports APU start and engine relight. ‘An emergency oxygen bottle is installed in the ejection seat to provide the pilot with emergency oxygen. The pitot system includes a main and an emergency pitot boom. To prevent icing, both booms are electrically heated. An angle of attack (AOA) limiter system and an automatic flight control system (AFCS) with automatic pitch control is incorporated. Change 4 1-3GAF T.O. 1F-MIG29-1 ‘The weapon delivery system comprises fire control, missile launchers and 30 mm gun. The fire control system includes the pulse Doppler radar, an infrared search and track system (IRSTS) and a weapon computer. Two digital computers process armament control data to provide displays of navigation, steering information and weapon aiming data to the head up display (HUD) and head down display (HDD). Ahelmet mounted sight (HMS) system can be used to designate visually acquired targets to the radar, ‘the infrared search and track system and to the infrared (IR) seekers of the missiles. Target range information is provided by an integrated laser range finder (LAF) in conjunction with IRSTS operation. I Navigation equipment such as tactical air navigation (TACAN) is incorporated. The aircraft has electronic protection measures 1 (EPM) capabilities and a radar homing and waming receiver (RHAW). AA flare dispenser system is installed for protection against IR missiles. Information and warning equipment is installed to attract the pilot’s attention to failures in aircraft systems by audio and visual means ie. telelight panel (TLP), voice information and warning system (VIWAS) and AEKRAN. Flight data are continuously recorded for further processing after the mission. ‘A HUD camera jis installed to record display and visual target information, MIG-29 GT Trainer Version The tandem-seat trainer version has a continuous framed canopy. 4-4 Change 4 ‘The GT has no radar but is capable of employing IR missiles and the 30 mm gun. A radar simulation contro! panel is installed in the rear cockpit to display simulated targets into the HUD and the HDD. The emergency simulation contro! panels are deactivated. For safe ground operation, a periscope system enables the rear occupant to have visual contact with the area in front of the aircraft.

They are equipped with ring combustion chambers and afterburners, variable air intake systems and variable exhaust nozzles. Refer to figure FO 1-5. For standard day/sea level conditions, the approximate static thrust ratings are as follows: - NPM = Normal Power Mode - LPM = Limited Power Mode G/GT NPM LPM Maximum AB thrust 8300 kp 7520 kp Minimum AB thrust 5.600 kp 5 280 kp MILITARY thrust 5.040 kp 4680 kp IDLE thrust 180kp 180 kp The two engines are mounted side by side in the aft section of the fuselage, ‘An APU gas turbine engine started by an electric motor is used to crank the engines for starting, Either the batteries or an external electrical power source can be used to provide electrical power during engine start. The engines are supplied with separate intakes located below the wing roots. On the ground, air is provided through louvers in the upper surface of the wing roots since the variable ramps of the intakes are closed to prevent FOD. In flight, engine air flow is controlled by variable ramps and variable stator vanes of the first two stages of the high-pressure (HP) compressor. It allows optimum engine performance over a wide range of aircraft operating conditions. Engine air is routed through the four stages of the low-pressure (LP) compressor. After the LP compressor the airflow is divided into two streams, a hot main stream and a cold bypass flow. The bypass air flows through an annular duct surrounding the HP compressor, the combustion chamber and the turbine section to rejoin the main flow in the air mixer of the afterburner (AB) section. The main stream flows through the nine stages of the HP compressor to the annular combustion chamber, where a controlled quantity of fuel is injected and ignited during start by ignitor plugs. The hot high-pressure gas from the combustion chamber expands through the turbine section and mixes with the cold bypass stream for further expansion. The turbine section of the engine consists of two single-stage turbines driving the HP compressor and the LP compressor. The two rotor shafts are mechanically independent of each other. Engine speeds are indicated by a tachometer showing the HP compressor speed of both engines a8 a percentage of nominal maximum RPM. During AB operation, additional fuel is injected into the hot gas stream by AB spray bars located in the ‘AB chamber behind the turbine section, producing a substantial gain in thrust. The exhaust nozzle area is fully variable and automatically controlled to obtain the desired thrust within engine operating limits. The engine control unit (ECU) controls the hydro- mechanical equipment of the engine control system and supplies discrete fail signals to the warming equipment. The engine system is described in the following paragraphs: ~ Bleed air system ~ Engine oil system ~ Engine fuel system ~ Engine control system = Engine anti-surge system AB fuel system Exhaust nozzle system ~ Engine air intake system - Variable stator system ~ Engine ignition system ~ Engine starting system ~ Engine AB system ~ Throttles + Engine controls and indicators - Engine fire detection system = Engine fire extinguisher system - Engine operation Change 1 1-5GAF T.O. 1F-MIG29-1 BLEED AIR SYSTEM Engine compressor bleed air taken from the LP and HP compressors (refer to figure FO-5) at three locations is utilized for the following functions: LP compressor: ~ Fuel accumulator tank pressurization. + External tank pressurization and fuel transfer, ~ Internal tank pressurization HP compressor Sth stage: - HP and LP turbine rotor and stator cooling. HP compressor 7th stage: = Air-conditioning and pressurization system. - Anti-ice system of the LP compressor intake. ENGINE OIL SYSTEM Each engine is equipped with a self-contained, dry- sump full pressure oil system to provide circulation of oil for lubrication and cooling of the engine main bearings and of the ENG GBX. Venting of the bearings and of the oil tank is provided to prevent excessive pressure build-up. Refer to figure FO-4 Oil is drawn from the oil supply tank by a main lube pump and delivered through a pressure filter to the accumulator and the oil pressure sensor. Tappings are provided to feed the three main engine bearings and the ENG GBX. Oil from the engine main bearings is returned by scavenge pumps to the oil tank via two separate fuel-cooled oil coolers (engine and AB fuel systems) to cool the engine oil. Filters are fitted in the oil return lines in front of the scavenge pumps. ‘A magnetic chip detector to provide an indication of engine wear and warning of engine components breakdown and an oil temperature sensor are provided downstream in the return line, Two suction pumps draw return oil from the ENG GBX and feed it to the output side of the main lube pump. When the engine is shut down, oil from the forward main bearing is drained to a separate return tank which is connected to a scavenge pump, The three engine bearing chambers, the oil tank and the oil-air separator are vented to the ENG GBX which in turn is vented overboard via a centrifugal breather. For negative g flights a pendulum-like suction pipe inside the oil supply tank ensures oil supply to the main lube pump. INDICATIONS AND WARNINGS The equivalent information will be recorded by the flight data recorder. Engine Oil Temperature Engine oil temperature is sensed by a temperature probe in the oil return tine, The engine fault detection unit will illuminate a red warning caption on the telelight panet (TLP).

The system is controlled by the engine fuel control as a function of various intemal operating signals. ‘The engine fuel system consists of a low pressure and a high pressure system. Fuel is supplied to the low pressure fuel pump of the low pressure system by two fuel booster pumps located inside the engine supply tank. The pressurized fuel passes through a fitter and is distributed to the engine control pump (ECP), the AB fuel pump and the nozzle HP pump of the HP system. The ECP meters the fuel according to throttle position and various engine parameters. The engine fuel is routed via the drain and cut-off valve, the fuel-cooled oil coolers and the engine fuel flow divider valve to the nozzles of the first and second manifold of the engine combustion chamber, where injection into the airstream occurs. ‘The ECP supplies fuel to position the actuators of: = Variable stator vanes of the HP compressor inlet = ABignition contro! IL - Automatic engine and AB control equipment. 1-8 Change 2 ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM The engine control system is a hydro-mechanical system manually controlled by throttle inputs and operated by an electronic engine control unit (ECU), refer to figure 1-14, Main system components of the engine control system include: - ECU - ECP ~ AB and nozzle control unit = Engine starter unit. The throttle produces an engine speed demand ‘signal which is routed mechanically to the ECP and to the AB and nozzle control unit. The ECU supplies electrical control signals to solenoids in the ECP, the AB and nozzle control unit and to the engine starter unit in order to modify engine performance within safe operation limits. ‘The entire performance range of the engine may be divided into four distinct operation regions: + IDLE + Crise > MIL, > AB Which system(s) or system components are active to control the engine depend on in which region the throttle is positioned, refer to figure 1-1. In the column throttle position, the four regions of the engine performance range are listed. In the same row as the throttle position, to the right, the control systems or units are listed which are active for that particular throttle position, while in the columns undemeath, the parameters being adjusted or ‘modulated to control the engine.GAF T.O. 1F-MIG29-1 cRuIse ss E A vt ¢ aa OFF iL TLE ” Throttle position Ecu ECP AB and Nozzle Control Unit IDLE : NH NL Cruise NL Correction NH NL depending on air mass flow MIL NH, NL, T4 : Nozzle area AB 4 : 7 Figure 1-1 In addition to the normal ECS the following — - Providing a fuel pressure signal (servo fuel) to functions are provided: control the AB ignition system. + Supply of servo fuel to the control valve of the - Automatic engine start sequence on the ground engine anti-ice system. and in flight. = Control of air intake flow during weapon + Control of the variable air intake guide vanes deployment to prevent stall (IGV) of the HP compressor, Change 2 1-9GAF T.O. 1F-MIG29-1 ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM [exe SENSOR INPUTS STARTER LP COMPR, SPEED NL 1 FUEL SUPPLY HP COMPR, SPEED NH et =| ann ] AIR START NAVE ‘COMPR.
