Old Jets

[QuietOne]

3 ex-Soviet fighters on static display at the Ontario Airport.

The Mig 17 was used extensively by North Vietnam during the Vietnam war.


The Mig 21 was used by North Vietnam in the latter part of the Vietnam war. It is believed that in many cases, these aircraft were actually flown by Soviet pilots.


The Mig 23 is a variable sweep wing jet, like the F-111 or the F-14. There is actually one being flown as a civilian aircraft in the United States.
