context_section_description: Algeria has 32 aircraft in service. Algeria has ordered 65 MiG-29s, four MiG-29UBT in total. 36 MiG-29SMT were to be delivered between 2007 and 2008. However, in March 2008, in an unprecedented move, Algeria decided to return 15 of the MiG-29SMT aircraft delivered in 2006-07 back to Russia, citing the "inferior quality" of certain components and units. Following this the MiG-29SMT has been cancelled with Su-30's instead ordered.  14 Mig-29M/M2s on order.
