МиГ-21 ВВС Болгарии

В 1989 году Болгария имела не менее 200 самолетов МиГ-21. В 2011 году оставались только МиГ-21бис и МиГ-21УМ из состава истребительной эскадрильи 1/3, приписанной к 3-й истребительной авиабазе.

This colourful grey and blue MiG-21UM Mongol displayed at the Dutch Air Force airshow at Volkel on July 1 and 2, 1995. Serialled 3756, this aircraft was until recently held in storage - it belongs to the Czech Republic Air Force Test Group based at Caslav.

Принятый на вооружение в конце 1950-х годов, МиГ-21 продолжал нести службу в ВВС некоторых стран Восточной Европы и в начале 21-го столетия. МиГ-21УС, изображенный на снимке, принадлежал ВВС Словакии, в которых самолеты этого типа продолжали использовать до 2002 года.

On the Malacky flight line are MiG-21MFs, a MiG-21UM, Su-22M4s, Su-22UM3s and an L-29.

В Венгрию массово поставлялись самолеты МиГ-21 в течение 1960-1970-х годов. Больше всех было МиГ-21бис/УМ (сейчас списаны).
Photographs of military aircraft in service with the Warpac air forces have been easier to obtain since the political changes swept across Europe in 1989. Michel Fournier has provided this photograph of a MiG-21 serving with the Hungarian Air Force.

Further interesting photos from Hungary are provided by Siete Meeter (Friesian Aviation Photo), who visited Budapest's Ferihegy airport on 12 July 1990 and there recorded this MiG-21 in interesting colour scheme.

Еще одной задачей десяти румынских LanceR B (бывшие МиГ-21УМ/УС), на которых готовятся пилоты для боевых LanceR, является непосредственная поддержка войск.

Румынский учебный самолет МиГ-21УМ LanceR B садится на авиабазе Граф-Игнатьево, Болгария, 2003 год. Вероятно, Румыния станет последней страной в Европе, эксплуатирующей эти самолеты.

The LanceR B is a two-seat training version with a strike capability.

This HRZ MiG-21UMD sports the colours of the Croatian national flag.

This image, taken in early August 2014, shows MiG-21 UMD s/n 165 in the display scheme a few days after it was officially accepted into service following the overhaul in Ukraine. It has been 'undergoing maintenance' since August 2017 and is unlikely to return to service

MiG-21UMD s/n 164 cycles its landing gear shortly after it took off from Pleso on an air-to-ground training flight in September 2020 armed with a pair of VAB-250 practice bombs

The business end of the two-seat MiG-21 UMD s/n 167 as it taxies at Pleso after returning from a training flight in August 2020. Note the instructor's periscope in the extended position on top of the rear canopy

The only remaining MiG-21 in the SAF&AD, 16180, could potentially still fly in 2021. However, it will probably never take off again because the fatal crash of 16185 extinguished any enthusiasm to extend the career of obsolete Cold War technology

Aircraft number 16174 is one of nine MiG-21UMs that were converted to become non-combat aircraft in 1996

The last Serbian MiG-21 jets are with the 4th Flight, 101st Fighter Aviation Squadron. The unit formed in 2006, having evolved from the 126th Squadron. The demon emblem on the MiG-21UM nose was inherited from the disbanded 126th

Dual-seat MiG-21UMs were used in the fighter squadrons for conversion training from subsonic aircraft; pilots regaining currency after a flying break; as well as for checking flight qualities, weather flights and other auxiliary tasks

Between 2015 and 2020, the QRA occasionally had two dual-seaters - one MiG-21UM and one MiG-29UB. When the MiG-29s became operational again in 2018, the need for air policing with the MiG-21 disappeared

The sun sets on the MiG-21 at Batajnica, where MiG-21s have operated for 58 years under Yugoslavian and, after 2006, in Serbian markings

MiG-21UM 16185 (c/n 516999513) was the last MiG-21 produced in the former USSR, at the 31st plant in Tbilisi in December 1986. It was the final MiG-21 to be put into service by the Yugoslav Air Force

Финляндия заменила свои МиГ-21У раннего выпуска на четыре МиГ-2УМ. Когда МиГи были сняты с вооружения 1998 году, один УМ еще оставался в летном состоянии.

MK-105 в конце 80-х получил светло-серую окраску, которую затем предполагалось нанести и на остальные МиГи, однако это не было сделано. Более светлая панель перед фонарем - результат ремонта после того, как самолет "словил" птицу на посадке. Желтая полоса на держателе ракеты - для отличия их от стандартных АПУ, установленных на "бисах".

A MiG-21U alias Type 66 - 600 series, two of which are on the strength of most first-line MiG-21FL squadrons of the IAF for refresher training, checks, etc. It will be noted that the MiG-21U sports an IAF roundel both fore and aft of the wing whereas the single-seat MiG-21FL normally has one fuselage roundel on each side but this can be positioned either forward or aft of the wing.

Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 UM Mongul-B 322 of the Cuban Defensa Anti-Aerea y Fuerza Aerea Revolucionaria (Cuban Anti-Aircraft Defence and Revolutionary Air Force) seen recently at Las Tunas. A handful of the two-seaters are believed to remain operational to provide instruction for pilots converting to the MiG-23 and MiG-29 at San Antonio de los Banos and Holguin.

Still on its own undercarriage but looking somewhat the worse for wear, two-seater BN serial NAF702, delivered in October 1984, sits alongside an NAF MiG-21 at Makurdi three decades later. The BNs did not have the rectangular fin-mounted electronic countermeasures housing fitted to the SNs.

Former Polish Air Force MiG-21UM 51-6905011/VH-XXI, owned by Dick Macintosh, Ross Cooper and Paul Stoddart, undergoes initial engine runs at Bankstown Airport, Sydney, Australia on March 18, 1993. The aircraft will operate from Williamtown RAAF base. Australian CAA rules governing jet warbirds are under review since both occupants of MiG-15UTI VH-LSN died when it crashed at Canberra on March 13 after hitting powerlines ten miles from the airfield.
