1/32 MiG-21MF
Trumpeter 1/32 MiG-21MF Fishbed J is a plastic kit of the Warsaw Pact supersonic fighter. The kit also includes resin and metal parts. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
For many years the MiG-21 was the standard fighter of the Warsaw Pact countries, proving itself as an interceptor and fighter-bomber. Succeeding the MiG-15, MiG-17 and MiG-19, it entered Soviet Air Force service in 1960–1961. It saw its baptism of fire in Vietnam and the Middle East and was continually improved throughout its career. The MF version received the more powerful Tumansky R-13-300 engine, improved electronics and a more capable radar.
The Trumpeter kit in 1/32 scale builds into a model with a 493 mm fuselage and a 225 mm wingspan. According to the box, it contains parts for one model with accurately reproduced exterior and cockpit, supplemented by resin and metal parts. The box art and the sample build show the camouflage of 23+15 with the JG 1 badge in post-reunification Luftwaffe colours.
At almost half a metre long, the MiG-21 becomes a striking display piece. The bold green and sand camouflage offers scope for subtle tonal variation and restrained panel line work. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
Nationality: Germany. Period: Cold War.
