Introduction
Following the retirement of the long serving Mig21Bis with the Croatian airforce a replacement was saught with a view to bringing the airforces aircraft upto modern day standards. RJ was approached and it was decided to build upon the experience and knowledge gained from the F118 THunderstrike program.
This particular airframe is in the Croatian national colours and the scheme was used by the national aircraft discplay team as the replacement for their Mig21Bis display aircraft (hence no missile armament.)

Planning on playing checkers with this plane?
@RamboJutter ah ok, still cool though
@AWESOMENESS360 nah its just a display scheme, it's the Croatian flag. For normal military operations everything is a shade of boring grey.
I love that dazzle camouflage, I imagine it’s to make it confusing for the enemy in regards as to which way you’re facing?
Looks like a parachute. I love it
