  The Mig-21 was originally built by the Mikoyan and Gurevich Design Bureau in the Soviet Union with a NATO nickname Fishbed. No other jet has had as many planes produced as the Mig-21. Depending on the reference source 8,000 - 13,000 planes of all versions were made in the Soviet Union, under license to allied countries and China without license. A small, fast, agile, dependable and most importantly simple making it easy to turn out great numbers of the plane.

  In the early 1960’s Lt. Nguyen Hong My of the North Vietnamese Air Force was trained to fly MiG-21s in the Soviet Union and was presented his pilot wings by Ho Chi Minh. Hong My is credited with downing one American aircraft. On April 16, 1972 Hong My’s MiG-21 was downed by Major Dan Cherry flying F-4D 66-7550. Lt. Nguyen Hong My broke both arms and injured his back but recovered to fly two more years. Retired Brigadier General Dan Cherry and Lt. Nguyen Hong My have since become friends.
