Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 Fishbed Diecast Model

Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 Fishbed
Designed as a successor to the Soviet Union's family of early MiG jet fighters, the MiG-21 was first flown on February 14, 1955. This supersonic jet fighter was the first Soviet aircraft to successfully combine fighter and interceptor characteristics. Its delta wing design gave it the ability to climb quickly and its light loading further improved its performance, making it possible for a skilled pilot to successfully engage in dogfights with contemporary enemy fighters. Today, more than 50 years after its introduction, the MiG-21 still serves the air forces of many nations and has become the most-produced supersonic jet in history.

Colours accurately depict paint chips found on a real a/c in service that was poorly painted at squadron level on a 'nearest matching colour' basis. Of course the camera colour balance is slightly off, you may be viewing using a non colour profiled browser, and possibly your monitor's colour rendition may not be 100% faithful.

Actually I just made that up, but having been a Spitfire aficionado for over 35 years I am always amused about the bitter colour accuracy arguments that still persist to this day.

Don't think we even want to go into scale effect or the merits of pre shading then!
