3 Squadrons for mig 29 left I guess.
More reasons to not retire the mig 21, replacement aren't arriving fast enough.
All MiG-21s in the IAF, having flown for over 40 years, are well past their technical lifespan and are unsuitable for even basic flight operations, let alone combat missions. This aircraft should have been retired by 2006, but the prolonged MMRCA procurement process and issues with the Tejas program forced the air force to continue operating these aging planes.
