- HISTORY ASPECTS:
- The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-19S Farmer C is a Soviet-built supersonic jet fighter aircraft that was developed in the early 1950s. It was the first Soviet production aircraft capable of supersonic speeds. The MiG-19S was operated by the Voyenno Vozdushnye Sily (VVS) or the Soviet Air Force. Red 37 is the markings for a specific MiG-19S aircraft operated by the Soviet Air Force.
- The MiG-19S was first deployed in the late 1950s and saw action in a number of conflicts, including the Vietnam War and the Six-Day War. During the Vietnam War, the MiG-19S was primarily used for ground attack missions and was responsible for shooting down several U.S. aircraft. The MiG-19S was also used by the Soviet Union during the Sino-Soviet border conflict of 1969, and in the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965.
- The MiG-19S was known for its high speed and agility, making it a formidable opponent in air-to-air combat. However, it had a relatively short service life and was phased out of service in the late 1960s and early 1970s, replaced by newer and more advanced aircraft.
- This 1:72 scale replica of the MiG-19S Farmer C is highly detailed, with features such as a rotating engine turbine, realistic panel lines, and historically accurate markings specific to Red 37. This diecast metal and plastic replica is sure to be a great addition to any collection of military aircraft.
