This kit offers a faithfully reproduced legendary Soviet fighter MiG-17F, which was one of the pillars of Soviet aviation in the 1950s and 1960s.

MiG-17F (NATO reporting name: Fresco C) was an improved version of the MiG-15 fighter, featuring better aerodynamics and an afterburning engine that allowed short-term boosts of thrust. This aircraft was designed and implemented into service in the USSR at the beginning of the 1950s, and gained its worldwide reputation mainly during conflicts such as the Vietnam War, where it successfully faced American aircraft despite their theoretical superiority. The MiG-17F was widely exported – it served in the air forces of more than 35 countries, including Poland, East Germany, Egypt, North Korea, and China. It remained in use from the early 1950s up until the late 1970s – and some countries used it even longer!
