MiG-21 "Fishbed"

Today I built the MiG-21 because you can't build the F-4 Phantom II without his counterpart. xD The MiG-21 is the most produced supersonic jet aircraft in history with over 11 000 units produced. It is very common to see preserved jets in front of air force bases and towns in the former Soviet Union. The MiG-21 is still in service with many air forces around the world including the Cuban, Indian, North Korean and Romanian air forces.

Cool: If you put a minecart in the cockpit, you can actually sit in the plane.
