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.
The Mongolian People's Army Aviation trained to operate jet fighters by using Yak-18, L-29 and in the early 1970s they received former Soviet Air Force MiG-15UTI and MiG-17. In the mid to late 1970’s former Soviet Air Force MiG-21s, Mi-8s and Ka-26s were delivered and the MiG-21PFMs were serial numbered 001 – 0012. In the 1990s; due to a lack of funds and spare parts 8 – 12 fighters and 2 trainers were placed in storage. In 2007 – 2011 all MiG-21s were removed from service and replaced by MiG-29s.
