MiG 15bis - eduard 1/144

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 (Russian: Микоян и Гуревич МиГ-15; NATO reporting name: "Fagot") is a jet fighter aircraft developed by Mikoyan-Gurevich OKB for the Soviet Union. The MiG-15 was one of the first successful swept-wing jet fighters, and achieved fame in the skies over Korea, where, early in the war, it outclassed all straight-winged enemy fighters in most applications.
Later, the MiG-15 would also serve as a starting point for the development of the more advanced MiG-17. The MiG-15 is believed to have been one of the most widely produced jet aircraft ever made; in excess of 12,000 were manufactured. Licensed foreign production may have raised the production total to over 18,000. The MiG-15 is often mentioned, along with the North American F-86 Sabre, as the best fighter aircraft of the Korean War, and among the best fighter aircraft of all time. The MiG-15 remains in service with the North Korean Air Force as an advanced trainer.

The very new kit is not difficult to build and the details are very fine, very thin and great. The 1/72 MiG 15 I built years ago is not yet so good. You can build this 1/144 MiG streight from the box and it is a excellent model. I put it on a little base with printed hexagon plates of a soviet airfield, added two figures from Preiser, a scratchbuilt generator trailer and a ladder made of wire. Ready is the little diorama :
