Quickboost QB48861 MiG-21MF gun pod - early version is a high-quality detail set designed for 1/48 scale MiG-21MF fighter models, mainly intended for Eduard kits. The product is a precisely rendered replica of the early version gun pod, used on one of the most important Soviet combat aircraft of the Cold War era.

The MiG-21 (NATO designation: Fishbed) was the primary supersonic frontline fighter of the USSR Air Force as well as numerous Warsaw Pact states and others. The MF version, introduced into service in the early 1970s, was widely used by the Soviet Union, Poland, East Germany, India, Egypt, and many other countries on all continents. Armament in the MiG-21MF included, among others, a GSh-23 gun pod – the very component recreated in this Quickboost upgrade set.

The gun pod was used during, among others, Middle Eastern conflicts (Arab-Israeli wars), the Vietnam War, and in combat operations during numerous border incidents in Europe and Asia up to the early 21st century. The Quickboost QB48861 set is intended to reproduce the early version of this pod, ensuring authenticity for models from the 1970s and 1980s.
