Historical information about the MiG-21MF

The MiG-21MF fighter is a development of the popular Soviet supersonic jet introduced into service at the end of the 1960s. This aircraft was widely used by Warsaw Pact countries as well as many nations in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. In particular, a large number of these planes were used by the Polish People’s Army, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Egypt, Syria, and India. The MiG-21MF took part in, among others, the Middle Eastern conflicts – the Yom Kippur War and the Six-Day War – and was a key element of air defense during the Cold War.
