1/48 MiG-21MFN

Description

This is an injection-plastic jet aircraft model kit.

From the manufacturer:

The MiG-21 was one of a long list of Mikoyan-Gurevich products to be integrated into the armed forces of the Soviet Union, the Warsaw Pact, and allied client states. Its predecessors included such notable types as the MiG-15, MiG-17, and the supersonic MiG-19.

This kit allows you to build a model of twelve existing MiG-21MFMs, the upgraded version of the MiG-21MF. The “N” signifies the upgrade of avionics to the NATO standard. It was powered by the Tumansky R-13-300 with afterburning and carried RP-22SMA Saphir-21 radar. The armament was composed of GSh-23-2L 23mm cannon with 200 rounds. The underwing pylons could carry a combination of FAB bombs up to 500kg in size, UB-16-57U rocket pods and R-3S, Kh-66, and R-60 missiles. Typically, two R-60MK (AA-8 Aphid) under inner pylons and external fuel tanks under outer pylons were carried.

This kit consists of parts molded in grey and clear plastic and includes decals and Eduard Superfabric parts.
