WEEKEND
EDITION

The MiG-21 was one of a long list of Mikoyan-Gurevich products to be integrated into the armed forces of the Soviet
Union, the Warsaw Pact, and allied client states. Its predecessors included such notable types as the MiG-15, MiG-17 and
the supersonic MiG-19.
The roots of this project reach back to the first half of the fifties. In 1954, the Ye-1 project came to an end, and was quickly
picked up by the Ye-2. Both had a swept wing. The first machine to feature the delta wing was the Ye-4, which first took to the
air on June 16th, 1955. It was also demonstrated a year later at the Moscow airfield Tushino.
The first of the new line to enter production was the MiG-21F, which together with the MiG-21P and F-13 represented the
first generation of the MiG-21, and was in production through the end of the fifties and the beginning of the sixties.
Subsequent versions included the PF, FL, PFM, R, the production of which peaked at the end of the sixties. The third
generation started production in 1968, which included such versions as M, SM, MF, SMT, bis among others.
Simultaneously, two-seat training versions were also produced designated MiG-21U, UM and US. Production of the
MiG-21 ended in 1985, and was put into service with some fifty nations.
Over the course of the cold war, the opponents of the MiG-21 included the likes of the Northrop F-5 Freedom Fighter and
the Dassault Mirage III. NATO assigned it the reporting name Fishbed. It became the most produced supersonic fighter
in terms of quantity. The new machines came off Soviet production lines in Moscow, Gorky and Tbilisi. The MiG-21F-13 was
also built under license in Czechoslovakia and the MiG-21FL, M and bis in India by Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. The Soviet
Union produced 10, 645 examples of all versions, 194 were built in Czechoslovakia and 657 in India. Outside of the Soviet
Union, the type flew with a long list of nations on all continents with the exception of Australia. The MiG-21 participated
in combat in Vietnam, the Indo-Pakistan wars, the Cuban participation in Angola and in the Arab worlds attempt to eliminate
Israel. Thanks to the high volume of use, the highest number of aces produced on the type was in Vietnam. The top of the
ladder is occupied by Nguyen Van Coc with nine kills.
The type serving as a fighter-bomber served with the Soviet Union and other nations of the Warsaw Pact into the
eighties, when it began to be displaced by the MiG-29 Fulcrum.
This kit allows you to build a model of twelwe existing MiG-21MFNs, the upgraded version of MiG-21MF. The
N signifies the upgrade of avionics to the NATO standard. It was powered by the Tumansky R-13-300 with afterburning
and carried RP-22SMA Saphir-21 radar. The armament was composed of GSh-23-2L 23mm cannon with 200 rounds. The
underwing pylons could carry a combination of FAB bombs up to 500kg in size, UB-16-57U rocket pods and R-3S, Kh-66
and R-60 missiles. Mostly two R-60MK (AA-8 Aphid) under innner pylons and external fuel tanks under outer pylons were
carried.
