Mikoyan-Guryevich MiG-21F Fishbed-C

Built to counteract the threat of United States Air Force (USAF) B-52 bombers, the MiG-21 was capable of flight over Mach 2 and had a service ceiling of at least 60,000 feet. First produced in 1959, the MiG-21F began arriving to Warsaw Pact countries in 1962. MiG-21F aircraft were equipped with a Tumansky R-11F engine, which gave the aircraft 13,120 pounds of thrust—a ten percent increase from previous variants. They were also equipped with a 129-gallon drop tank, a multi-channel radio, identification, friend or foe (IFF) capability and radar warning receiver and many other additions. These aircraft were used by thirty countries and they have fought in almost every major conflict in the modern world.
