The MiG-19 (factory designation: I-350, NATO code name: "Farmer") was designed by the Mikoyan-Gurevich design bureau and first flown in 1952. It was the first Soviet supersonic fighter to enter serial production and service at the end of the 1950s, widely used by the air forces of the USSR, PRC (as Shenyang J-6), as well as countries such as Poland, East Germany, Egypt, and North Korea. It took part in numerous local conflicts—including the Korean War (in its final stage), the Laotian Civil War, the Vietnam War and the Arab-Israeli conflicts. Replacing earlier designs such as the MiG-15 and MiG-17, the MiG-19 set a new standard of speed, maneuverability, and firepower for Eastern Bloc aviation in the 1950s and 1960s.

The Armory Models AW72051 set stands out for its exceptional detail quality—precisely crafted components, no deformation, excellent fit, and ease of assembly make this product appreciated by both advanced modelers and intermediate hobbyists seeking to upgrade their MiG-19 model. Installing the weighted wheels provides not only enhanced realism but also the opportunity for a convincing presentation of the aircraft on a diorama.

• Years of original service: from 1955 (Cold War)
