Introduction.
Seems poggers right?
While doing some research with migs I stumbled upon this aircraft. The reason why I decided to built this cuz firstly its unseen which makes it kinda unique, secondly I guess the whole community didn't even heard of this before.
Kinda cold war relic.
MiG -15 "Ohkotik Podderska letayushchiy Radio"
This is the MiG-15 OPLR “Fireside”.
This MiG -15 variant "Ohkotik Podderska letayushchiy Radio" or OPLR was seen by NATO observers in company with other MiG-15 and later -17’s and was mistaken for a fighter, hence the callsign starting with F.
It was actually conceived as a “hunter” airborne radarstation over the vast Russian skies co-working with “killer” team MiG-15 and later Mig-17’s like a wolfpack. So it wasn't a fighter in true essence. Although tried for some time with continuous improvement of the airborne radar, it had limited radar capabilities and was too slow for contemporary fighters. So, the concept was abandoned.
Maiden flight: December 1953
Livery: PVO-Strany, Magadan-13 (Magadan area), October 1955

For such an original model , I find that there is not much vote . VOTE PLEASE . Thanks in advance from all the creators .
If you search the name in google you won't get the results. Read it here
Searched it up, apparently it seems to have been a fictional plane made by combining some model kit parts together (which is the model in the picture). Still a cool concept though!
@Trainzo thanks.
