The Mikoyan Project 1.44 is a multirole fighter technology demonstrator developed by Mikoyan OKB. It was designed for the Soviet Union's MFI (Mnogofunksionalni Frontovoy Istrebitel, "Multifunctional Frontline Fighter") project for 90s, the answer to the US ATF programme which resulted in the F-22 Raptor. On 29 February 2000, the aircraft performed its first flight. The program has since been cancelled, with the sole prototype known residing at Gromov Flight Research Institute, it was later restored/refurbished and was displayed at MAKS 2017.
