Yeah, and reading between the Ukrainian lines you can read it used to be 36(yw):
"MiG-29 №47
The MiG-29, with flight number 47, is part of the 204th Sevastopol Tactical Aviation Brigade, based in Lutsk.

The aircraft was built in March 1990 and since March 1992 it is part of the Air Force. Formerly, it was numbered 36 yellow and by 2001 was part of a 168 pilot test complex in Kirovsky, Crimea. After disbanding, it was stored.

In 2014, it was exported from the occupied peninsula and in 2016 it underwent repair at the Lviv Aviation Plant, where it received a new onboard number 47 blue and transferred to 204th BrTA"

Apparently they wrapped it up quicky when the Russians came...

According to Scramble db there are 2 (I have my doubts :roll: )
... 36 ye MiG-29 Kirovske? Stored sep96 may13
... 36 ye MiG-29C 2960728195 LDARZ Stored sep96 oct17

Which possibly even uncovered the construction number... And no, I do not guarantee that this information is correct...

Tot zover.

Grtz,

Yes, those two entries concern the same aircraft.
It went to Kulbakino initially after it was recovered from Crimea.
