Explore our range of detailed diecast models of the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 - Authentically Crafted, Historically Significant, and Collectible Airplane Models.

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 is one of the most famous jet fighters from the early Cold War period. First flown in 1947, this Soviet aircraft became known for its swept-wing design, a revolutionary feature at the time. It played a prominent role in the Korean War, where it engaged in combat with American aircraft, notably the F-86 Sabre, challenging air superiority with its effective high-altitude performance and rapid rate of climb.

Key variants of the MiG-15 include the MiG-15 (basic fighter version), MiG-15bis (improved version with enhanced engine and armament), and MiG-15UTI (a two-seat trainer variant). The MiG-15's impact on aerial combat during its era, its role in various global conflicts, and its significance in the evolution of jet fighter design make it a compelling subject for military aviation historians and model collectors.
