can anyone make out what those 3 black aircraft are? i guess the blue ones are mig-29Ks
Sorry, I was unclear in my post - have added a question mark besides catapults to make it clear.Does it have a catapult?
At least one of the launch positions (catapults?) obstructed by the landing area. The island would take a pounding in heavy seas - and the crew members there would need super-sea legs because of the range of motion there, that’s if they weren’t swimming for their lives.

A probable Yak-130 naval trainer?can anyone make out what those 3 black aircraft are?
Dont see why not.Would a full Diesel power plant applicable for such a carrier?
Yeah, our project numeration is sometimes... annoying.I often got confused by the design numbers Russia / Soviet Union uses. As some sites states 5 digit numbers without dots other include the dot.
It does not helps either that many civilan ships had such project numbers as well and from time to time the same number was allocated for a warship class and say a riverine passenger ship "class".Yeah, our project numeration is sometimes... annoying.I often got confused by the design numbers Russia / Soviet Union uses.

I have tried my best to unravel the project numbering system here.
It is a confusing system, especially when the 0 prefix is used for more recent numbers.
Nah the dimensions and hull form are way too different. Also, I really can't imagine them basing a design for an icebreaking pocket carrier off a fast cruiser hull, as opposed to actual icebreaker hull designs.By the date and displacement it looks like based on the Kirovs hull
The only other large-scale English-language listing seems to be the Globalsecurity one complied in the early 2000s but it has several errors in it. I had to trawl through a lot of Russian language sites to try and piece together bits, especially for the civilian ships.
The GDR system must have had labyrinthine levels of opacity for security reasons and it beats the hell out of me!

Nothing can beat Su-27 subvariants utter mess. NO-THING. My brain is bleeding just thinking about the whole thing.

So what happens to the MiG light fighter? Or with they be involved in a fly off against each other?
Who knows. But it is likely that MiG is waiting with LMFS for new opportunities. By the way, there are currently interesting discussions in Russia, when the existence of a new deck fighter project is necessary for the building of the new aircraft carrier. MiG works with twin-engine concepts and has gained vast experience with the K/KUB...
