F.O.D. (Foreign Object Damage) covers are real, removable covers used at airports to secure the air intakes of aircraft and prevent contamination while parked. In the case of the MiG-21, their use was extremely important in minimizing the risk of engine damage from foreign objects. F.O.D. covers were used by most countries operating the MiG-21—especially in Soviet, Polish, Czechoslovak, Indian air forces, as well as in Middle Eastern countries.
