Historical Background

The MiG-15bis Fagot and MiG-17 Fresco are among the most recognizable jet fighters in aviation history. Designed in the Soviet Union, these machines were widely used by Eastern Bloc nations and saw action in conflicts such as the Korean War (MiG-15, 1950s) and the Vietnam War (MiG-17, 1960s and 70s). The landing gear tires were especially important, required to withstand the harsh conditions of field airstrips and the heavy loads of armament.
