Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Mikoyan OKB's response was a design with the bureau designation I-310; a project that was influenced by plans for the Focke-Wulf Ta 183, which Soviet forces captured when they overran Berlin in 1945. Desperate to get hold of an intact MiG for testing, the United States offered $100,000 and political asylum to any pilot who would defect with their airplane. Eventually a North Korean pilot, who claimed to be unaware of the proferred reward, landed at Kimpo Air Base in September 1953, allowing the first detailed evaluation of the aircraft. www.wikipedia.org /wiki/Mikoyan-Gurevich_MiG-15   (1034 words)

Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 : Mikoyan MiG-15 Desperate to get hold of an intact MiG for testing the US offered $100,000 to any pilot who would defect with their aircraft.

MIKOYAN The VK-1 was used to power the MiG 15 It had a thrust of 6,000 pounds. The U.S. then offered to return the MiG to its rightful owners but when no country claimed the plane, it was transferred to the USAF Museum in 1957. And this was done with the slightly inferior F-86 which had neither the speed, maneuverability nor the altitude of the MiG. www.456fis.org /MIG-15.htm   (2927 words)

Mikoyan-Gurevich Mig-15 Fagot The MiG bureau began the design of a swept-wing fighter to meet an urgent Soviet requirement for a high-performance turbojet fighter.

Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 Although Mikoyan and Gurevitch were aware of German turbojet and swept-wing work, this design was wholly Russian--except for the engine.

MiG 15 vrs F-86 Sabre - Special This is the magic behind the story of the rivalry between the North American F-86 Sabre and the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG 15 'Fagot'. In practice, however since the MiG was less armoured so the F-86's smaller shells were just as effective and the greater number tipped the balance towards the Americans. Also both had engines based on British experience, the MiG's being an illegal copy of the Rolls Royce Nene engine and the American's also having studied British technologies, however their engine was not a direct copy. homepages.manx.net /theatreofwar/MiG15%20vrs%20F-86.htm   (1074 words)

Warbird Alley: MiG-15 Fortunately, Allied pilots were better-trained and had better equipment installed in their aircraft, and they prevailed against the MiG. In 1948, the Soviet MiG design bureau developed a high-performance jet fighter design called the I-310. It incorporated some advanced features, such as a 35-degree wing sweep, and it promised to be a sprightly performer. www.warbirdalley.com /mig15.htm   (459 words)

Mikoyan-Gurevich MIG-15: The Soviet Union's Long-Lived Korean War Fighter The goal (particularly regarding the combat performance of the F-86 vs the Mig-15) seems to be to attack US claims of a 10-1 kill ratio, and to install a claimed 2 or 3 to one ratio in favor of the Mig when Soviet pilots were involved. But, Soviet claims that there is a 3-1 kill ratio in the Mig's favor are just plain ludicrous. Nothing in war is always what it seems, and there is probably good reason to revisit that famous 10-1 kill ratio; it probably should be downgraded considerably. www.textkit.com /0_1857801059.html   (833 words)
