Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21PF Fishbed-D – The MiG-21 of The Missile Age

+1 every addition is welcome. Game is getting boring and top tier is not fun. We need more less modern vehicels

This is the only way I would ever see this being added as a semi viable plane if it doesn’t have a gun. Without them, it would be completely useless and a bad addition because 2 R-3S missiles is the worst missile loadout in the whole game.

The sea vixen is probably overtiered at 9.0, and it lacks a gun despite having considerably better missiles, and great subsonic flight performance.

-1 unless it comes with a gun or better missiles.

The MiG-21PFS (mid-production) and the MiG-21FL both received gun pods in some cases. However, these two variants differ physically from the PF, particularly in the tail section.

PF would offer an interesting challenge to play, much like the MiG-21F-13, which also leaves little room for error. If it were up to me, I’d assign the MiG-21PF to the Hungarian subtree.

I was just looking into this aircraft myself an hour ago lol, what a coincidence! Major +1 from me, and I’d love to see skins from its foreign service as well!

PF with GP-9?

Unfortunately a PFS mid-production. You can tell them apart by the parachute housing on the tail.

If you’re interested in making a suggestion, you could focus on the mid-production MiG-21PFS, a MiG-21PF variant featuring SPS blown flaps, a GP-9 gun pod, and an upgraded engine. Make sure not to confuse this jet with the late-production MiG-21PFS as it is nearly identical to the MiG-21PFM.

As for me, I’m considering doing one for the MiG-21FL for India.

First serial MiG-21 can be also interesting:

+1, me and the other MiG-21 enjoyers will appreciate this.

Not looking into suggesting it at the moment, just eh variant and its history/specifications in general. Right now I’m looking into the conflict of the 6 day war and the aircraft that opposed Israel in the Egyptian Air Force. They had a few of those, but they had limited success due to their lack of a gun. They had to rely on the MiG-17Fs and MiG-21F-13s more so.

The MiG-21FL served India very well, and it came with the GP-9 pod.

Edit: My Indian MiG-21FL suggestion is pending.

+1 maybe folderd with the PFM?

Nah, I’d argue it should just go to Hungary or East Germany.

Fair enough

+1, would be an interesting parallel to something like the F-102
