The Algerian Air Force is equipped with MiG-29M2 fighter jets, and the country's air force has procured a total of 14 MiG-29M2 fighter jets. Prior to this, the Algerian Air Force had decided to purchase 36 MiG-29SMT fighters, but due to the poor quality of the fighters, in 2006-2007, the Algerian Air Force returned 15 MiG-29SMT fighters and cancelled the subsequent order. Instead, more advanced Su-30 fighter jets and MiG-29M2 fighter jets were procured.
This kind of return due to the quality of fighters is quite rare.
