Mig varients?
« on: January 24, 2012, 07:09:42 PM »

IS there a MiG-15UTI in the works?

I have also heard that there is a naval version of the Mig-15?

IT would be pretty cool to have the trainer version.

Never knew about a naval version! That's interesting :)

As for a trainer, would be cool to have something to match the US's T-33 we have here already, wouldn't it?

;) Held off mentioning it in my last message, but in fact the MiG-15UTI was in beta testing at the time and is now available here:

Also:

SN prototype. Following the encouraging experiments with the SU MiG-15 fitted with pivoting armament, a MiG-17 "Fresco-A" was fitted with a "solid" nose containing three pivoting AM-23 23 millimeter cannon and an engine intake forward of each wingroot. The cannon could pivot up about 27.5 degrees and down about 9.5 degrees. There was one cannon on a pivot on the right side of the nose and two cannon mounted top-bottom on a common pivot on the left side of the nose. The pivoting cannon could be used for both strafing and air combat, under control of a special gunsight



And some other interesting tests:
