Ah yes, my favourite jet fighters, the MiG-1 and MiG-3

Poor Gurevich, you completely left him out.

The MiG-25 is an astonishing bird. A jet figther developed over 50 years ago capable of Mach 3 and its still able to outrun the vast majority of modern fighters.

MIG-17 and MIG-21 were legendary fighters of the 20th century!
Vietnamese pilots flying MIG-21 shot down B-52 in 1972 in Hanoi

Is anyone gonna talk about how the MiG-15 on the thumbnail is labeled as a MiG-9

[Lancer_]

Mikoyan, one of my favorite fighter jet manufacturers of all time
Especially the Mig-29

Some side notes to the video : 1) as you see there were no more piston-engined fighters after Mig-3. This is due to the fact that Mig-3 was overspecialised as a high-altitude interceptor, and was a relatively poor dogfighter. Throughout WW2 the Soviets have been very confined in resources, so the decision was made to abandon production and development of Migs and focus on that of Ilyushin IL-2 ground attack and Yakovlev Yak-3 fighter aircraft. 2) Mig-9 and Mig-15 have been developed and built when the Soviet jet engine R&D was in its infancy. Mig-9 engine was based on the reverse engineered BMW engines captured from the defeated Nazi Germany, and Mig-15 engine was based on Rolls Royce Nene engine purchased from the UK. 3) Mig-15 was developed with the threat of American B-29 bombers in mind, so it was optimised for shooting down large and tough aircraft (the use of 37mm cannon). As a side effect, it had a slightly poorer shooting accuracy than that of its counterpart, F-86 Sabre. 4) The picture of Mig-15 actually depicts Mig-15 Uti, the twin-seated trainer version of Mig-15. 5) Mig-27 is based on the same platform as Mig-23, in fact, it has originally been developed as a variant of Mig-23. 6) An interesting feature of Mig-23 and Mig-27 is a foldable ventral fin, which increases directional stability at high speed. 7) Mig-29 was actually never intended to counter F-15, Sukhoi Su-27 was. Mig-29 is a light fighter and was meant to fulfil the same role as F-16.

Good Wikipedia read. Love to see the MiG-3 Jet fighters and the non descript models for which you got the statistics for

Why do you call the piston engine equipped MIG-1 one for a jet fighter????

[micheldaveau]

Top technology, respect and congratulations....!!

Sukhoi : *develops supermanueverability against missiles
Migs : Lulz *speeds up

[Haecqal]

Tupolev, Yakovlev, We love Russian plane....

I like MIG-25 Foxbat and MIG-29 Fulcrum most. MIG-25 was developed to stop American Blackbirds from intercepting and it was very successful. It used to be called the iron fist of the Soviets. Then comes MIG-29 which is such a legendary fighter. When Germany was reunited, some of the Fulcrums from East Germany took part in NATO manoeuvres and used to outperform the best American fighters (e.g. F-15 Eagle). Yeah...that's the way it was

[featheredserpentofthewest]

Awesome! You always deliver great content. Thank you for noticing those request for the MiGs 😎😎😎

[palwinder_kaler]

Russian planes are just like russian girls.... Hot, perfect, beautiful, elegant but extremely dangerous

[drjorgeluiz]

"Jet fighters" ok, and what about the propeller of the mig-1 and mig-3?

[MiKeMiDNiTe-]

I love all the MiGs but the MiG 19 Farmer for me is one of the nicest looking aircraft ever for me it's the 57 Chevy of the Russian jets

[thestørmcrier]

I’ve always liked the yak fighters since playing iron aces as a kid. Man that game takes me back

[RikthDcruze]

MiG21 my love ♥️ I wish I was a fighter pilot..., just to fly the MiG-21
