Fiche
Pertinence pour les conflits
Ceci est la fiche unique du catalogue pour ce système. Il est pertinent pour le module ci-dessous ; le Force Atlas de chaque module montre comment il y est employé.
Opérateurs
Malian Armed Forces (FAMa): Acquired during the Soviet-aligned period under Moussa Traoré; airframes survive at Bamako-Sénou as non-flying stock.
Rôle sur le champ de bataille
Context rather than capability: Mali's Cold War fighter fleet marks the first Soviet alignment, which the current Russian partnership consciously echoes. The airframes themselves have been inoperable for decades.
Points forts
Historically, a cheap supersonic interceptor that a small air force could acquire with Soviet credit and training — which is exactly the transaction the 2021–2022 Russian packages repeated with different aircraft.
Limites
Inoperable since the 2000s: no spares, no trained pilots and no mission in a war against insurgents on motorcycles. Its only relevance to the module is the lineage it documents.
Identification visuelle
A small delta-wing fighter with a nose intake and a central shock cone; the surviving Malian airframes are static.
Emploi documenté dans les conflits
No employment in the current conflict; documented only as the Soviet-era inventory of the Malian Air Force, as recorded in the historical literature and in reference inventories that list it as non-operational.
