MiG-21BIS – a brief historical note

The MiG-21BIS was the culmination of the development of one of the most recognizable military aviation designs – the Soviet MiG-21 fighter. This aircraft was operated in many Warsaw Pact countries, as well as in the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, serving, among others, in the air forces of the Soviet Union, Poland, India, Finland, and Bulgaria. Its period of intensive use fell in the 1970s and 1980s, during the Cold War, and many units remain in service to this day.

The MiG-21BIS was used for both air-to-air missions and ground-attack roles. The aircraft's effectiveness was significantly influenced by its aerodynamically refined design, with its characteristic sharply pointed radome, which housed the radar and affected the overall silhouette of the machine.
