The Russian MiG 21 known in the west by its Nato Code name 'Fishbed-C' is now one of the world's most widely used fighters and is the first line equipment of no less than seventeen air forces. The first prototypes of the MiG 21 is fairly small and comparatively inexpensive and is suitable only for local defence in clear weather but in combat over Vietnam has proved almost the same performance as the most sophisticated Western aircraft. The 'Fishbed-C' is armed with two 'Atoll' infra-red heat seeking missiles very similar to the 'Sidewinder' and there is provision for two 30mm cannons, although only the starboard one is normally fitted. The turbo-jet is of approximately 10,000lb s.t. (13,500lb s.t. with re-heat) giving a top speed of Mach. 2.0 (1,320mph). Range, with one 132 gallon drop tank is 1,250 miles.
