Information

1:72 MIKOYAN-GUREVICH MIG-17F `FRESCO` (SHENYANG J-5)

The MIG-17 was designed to preform the role  of the bomber kiler and was never

intended as a dogfighter, however its excepitional agility would allow this aircraft  

to score combat victories over more modern American designs. The Vietnam War 

proved to be something of a sobering experience for the US Air Force, as some of their 

most modern aircraft would fall victim to the guns of the MIG-17. An extremely 

cost-effective aircraft, the rugged MIG-17 become the standard warsaw pact fighter 

for a decade from the mid-1950s with aircraft produced under licence in both China and Poland
