" Fighter Wing 1 "Fritz Schmenkel" (Holzdorf), part of the 1st Air Defense Division, presented its aircraft inventory to interested journalists. Through this, the Air Force/Air Defense command of the NVA (National People's Army) aims to demonstrate its defense-oriented structure. The wing’s inventory includes the MiG-29, one of the most modern combat aircraft..."
This image of one of the unit's MiG 29s was taken on 9 June 1990 according to the Bundesarchiv caption. However this machine may well have belonged to the NVA-Jagdfliegergeschwader 3 (JG-3) based at Preschen -two views taken at Preschen below - prior to being 'integrated' into the Bundeswehr (Kennungen '29+19' and '29+14') The NVA flew their last sorties literally days later prior to disbandment in September 1990 despite what you can read elsewhere.
