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 swept-wing jet fighters, and achieved fame in the skies over Korea, where, early in the war, it outclassed all straight-winged enemy fighters in most applications.

The MiG-15 is believed to have been one of the most widely produced jet aircraft ever made; in excess of 12,000 were manufactured. Licensed foreign production may have raised the production total to over 18,000. 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.

I made this for you, Ahiredgun!

It is by no means my best plane, but I really tried on this one to make it look right and fly. The fusage is a little off but its pretty damn hard to get a circular look when you are dealing with blocks... Also, the paint-job is not one of the common MiG-15 markings, but it is one that is authentic. Again, I was limited by the building block's shapes.

Once up to speed, she flies near perfectly balanced. But until you achieve speed, you may have to fight to maintain pitch control. You are more than welcome to make any mods to get it to your liking.

    Excellent plane. I found this funny, as yesterday I uploaded the U-2 from the US Air force. The U-2 was practically an enemy of the MiG. Once again, GREAT JOB!

    My favorite replica from you; other lag much. This one is kinda simple, but looks much like the original, without being too fragile. But, and there is a "but", the plane is under-propulsed; it flies to max 300 mph. But this is my favorite plane from you. It is simple, realistic and flies pretty good (stable). This is one of my favorite planes (the MiG-15) and I'm happy to see that you realize it well. Thanks.

    Thanks for the kind words, my man. Yeah, when you first spawn it tilts back because it kind of plops down onto the runway (that's just how the game is with any plane on the initial spawn) and the rear gear are only just ever so slightly behind the CoM. But if you pause and restart first thing, the plane will be upright and won't tilt backwards or break!

    Another great plane. The aesthetic is very similar to the actual thing, and it flies perfectly except for its nose going down ever so slightly its not that noticeable though. But for some reason when I spawn it in, it tilts until the back of the plane hits the run way then back to the original position (with possible broken parts).
