Mikojan-Gurewitsch MiG-15bis

Mod Seeras  8.8 years ago

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 is a jet fighter aircraft developed by Mikoyan-Gurevich OKB for the Soviet Union. The MiG-15 was one of the first successful jet fighters to incorporate swept wings to achieve high transonic speeds. In combat over Korea, it outclassed straight-winged jet day fighters which were largely relegated to ground attack roles, and was quickly countered by the similar American swept-wing F-86 Sabre. The MiG-15 is often mentioned, along with the North American F-86 Sabre, as the best fighter aircraft of the Korean War, and among the best fighter aircraft of all time.

    @Seeras Do you know someone who can make a nice cockpit for it? I don't know how to make the gauges work and I am also not very good at positioning these small things. :D

    @Seeras I'm working on a huge MiG-21 with real propellers as turbine blades, but I am not too good at making things scale, it needs much time and patience. :D
