From Mikoyan-Gurevich the MiG-15 was a communist star of the Korean War. With the NATO reporting name "Fagot", this nimble multi role jet taught the enemy the value of keeping things simple, able to outperform the more complicated planes of the opposition. When the Americans responded with the F-86 Sabre, also a swept wing design, the stage was set for some truly epic air to air combat.
