Product Description
-In the 1960s, the performance of the aircraft exceeded Mach 2 and it was expected that the air battle would not occur and it would be an air stop that would destroy the runway and prevent enemy aircraft from flying.
-As the Soviet Union requested a fuselage that can take off even in that situation, the development of a fighter with STOL characteristics has progressed as a successor to the MiG-21.
-Prototypes with lift engine and variable wing type were made for comparison and tested.
-The lift engine type showed tremendous STOL characteristics with a take-off distance of 200m, and the information was greatly disseminated.
-However, development was discontinued because there were fewer merits than the variable wing type due to problems such as dead weight during flight of the lift engine and compression of the internal volume.
