Mikoyan Gurevich MiG 19 Farmer
 

Developed from the smaller MiG 17, the MiG 19 became
the first sovjet supersonic jet fighter. Fitted with
2 engines, swept wings and a slightly different aero-
dynamic configuration, it became the standard fighter
aircraft for some years, until it was relieved by the
more powerful MiG21.
