  Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-3
Mikoyan and Gurevich made a large number of modifications to the MiG-1 design after field testing revealed a number of dangerous characteristics of the type.
The most significant of these was doubling the dihedral of the outer wings in an attempt to create more stability, and lengthening the nose of the aircraft to move the engine and therefore centre of gravity further forward.
Throughout the rest of the war, Mikoyan and Gurevich continued to develop the MiG-3 along the high-altitude interceptor lines that it had originally been designed for, leading to a series of ever-larger and more powerful prototypes, the I-220 to I-225.

 Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-1 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Further works upon the I-200 design were given to Mikoyan and Gurevich, who later became, not fully justly, recognized as its designers.
The result was a highly conventional aircraft that flew on schedule on April 5, 1940, although its intended powerplant was not ready in time.
Here, it was discovered that the high wing loading of the small aircraft produced some very nasty handling problems, including tendencies towards both stalling and spinning, and a lack of directional stability.

Even today, despite the death of Mikoyan in 1970, and that of Gurevich in 1976, the designation MiG continues to be used to identify the most advanced Soviet combat aircraft, in remembrance of the partnership between the two great technicians, which originated in 1938, immediately prior to the outbreak of war.
In that year, Mikoyan and Gurevich began their long association with the intention of building a single-seater interceptor developed around the large and powerful Mikulin AM-35, a 12-cylinder Vee engine capable of generating 1,200 hp at 19,735 ft (6000 m) and 1,350 hp at takeoff.
However, Mikoyan and Gurevich's fighter remained in front-line service until the final months of 1943, and it was subsequently relegated to secondary roles.
