Mikoyan Gurevich MiG-21R
The Mikoyan Gurevich MiG-21 is probably one of the best known Soviet aircraft. Operated by nations all over the world, the Mig-21 holds the distinction of being the most produced warplane since WWII. The subject of MMP’s newest monograph is the reconnaissance variant Mig-21R.
The 24-page book is composed of line drawings, photographs, captions, and a color profile of a single aircraft. All of the aircraft featured are Polish Air Force. Close in-detail photos of the fuselage, wing, tail, undercarriage, armament, cockpit and canopy are provided.
Two pages are dedicated to the interior of the vertical fin providing details of the spars, ribs, hydraulic lines, fuel lines, and components not normally seen. Other photographs are of operational Polish Air Force aircraft.
The line drawings include armament typically carried by the MiG-21R and details of the different reconnaissance pods. A nice touch, is the color photos of the cockpit and canopy. This book will provide the modeler with detail photos needed to enhance or correct a given kit. It is not an all-encompassing publication on the MiG-21R but a concise look at specific areas of the aircraft.
Thank you to MMP for the review sample.
