On June 16th, 1955 MiG-21, the most widespread supersonic jet in history, performed its maiden flight. Thanks to modernization and the release of more advanced modifications it remains in use even today, almost 80 years later, by over 15 countries.

MiG-21 SPS-K temporarily available for Golden Eagles


To commemorate MiG-21’s first flight, its 1964 modification, MiG-21PFM, renamed by East Germany as MiG-21SPS-K, returns to sale for Golden Eagles from June 16th (12:00 GMT) until June 20th (9:00 GMT)!

K in its name means “Kannon”, as it can be equipped with a two-barrel 23 mm GSh-23L cannon that fires powerful, fast, and precise rounds. The aircraft can also carry R-60 and R-13M missiles, and even R-3R, semi-active radar homing missiles!
