Brief history of the MiG-15bis

The MiG-15bis was one of the most important Soviet jet fighters, used by the USSR Air Force as well as many Warsaw Pact and allied countries. It served extensively during the Cold War, gaining a formidable reputation in the Korean conflict (1950-1953), where it was a direct opponent of the American F-86 Sabre. Developed since 1949, the MiG-15bis was an advanced version of the basic MiG-15, upgraded in avionics and flight performance.

The featured airbrakes allowed for rapid speed reduction during combat flight and landing—accurate reproduction of these parts in 1:72 scale significantly enhances the credibility, realism, and final effect of the finished model.

The Eduard 672020 set is recommended both for advanced modelers and intermediate hobbyists who wish to improve the authenticity and detail of their MiG-15bis models. The product is definitely worth choosing for projects where faithful interior details and structural elements visible after opening the airbrakes are important.
