To cure the poor spin performance of the MiG-1, automatic slats were added. No other country had such a high-speed, high-altitude interceptor in service, and even the Luftwaffe was taken by surprise when some of its high-altitude reconnaissance planes were lost to unseen Soviet fighters. The MiG-3 was almost perfectly suited for its designated role, but the well-known events of 1941 forced pilots to engage the MiG-3 as a replacement for conventional fighters or even ground attackers. It was a forced misuse of a good high-altitude interceptor with limitations in low-altitude performance. At the beginning of the Great Patriotic War (what was WWII for Soviet people) many MiG pilots rammed German bombers after running out of ammunition - often the order was \"to stop bombers by any means\". All were equipped with protected fuel tanks with neutral gas filling. This somewhat 'cushioned' other low-altitude deficiencies. The Soviets built 3,322 MiG-3 variants. The aircraft was in service almost until the end of the war, thanks to exceptionally easy maintenance, reparability and part compatibility. Generally, a flying MiG-3 could be assembled in the field from two or three irreparable aircraft.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease see the paint guide below for Trumpeter’s suggested colors. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003e________________________________\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003eProduct Details:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003eScale: 1\/32\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eParts: 134\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLength: 10.2”\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWingspan: 12.52”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Painting and assembly required\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- \u003c\/span\u003e5 sprues\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Metal aileron and flap shaft\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Clear parts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Accurately reproduced exterior and cockpit\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Rotating propeller\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Detailed landing gear and bays\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Clear parts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Underwing mounted rockets\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- \u003c\/span\u003ePhoto-etched parts\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- \u003c\/span\u003eIncludes instructions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003e________________________________\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN\"\u003ePaint Guides:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMiG-3, 12 Guards IAP Air Defense of Moscow, March 1942\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSignal Red\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFlat White\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMedium Gunship Grey\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMatte Black\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInsignia Yellow\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMatte Forest Green\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMatte Light Grey\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTire Black\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClear Red\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMetal Black\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBurnt Iron\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAluminum\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HobbyTyme Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":45845878669629,"sku":"TRP02230","price":57.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/7259\/9101\/files\/9580208022307_992aae5e-9cb3-4619-9a2f-3eac8fd19311.jpg?v=1783225966","url":"https:\/\/www.locohobby.com\/products\/mikoyan-gurevich-mig-3","provider":"LocoHobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
