Well, these are definitely done and finished and going in the display cabinet this time
The Ye-2 (swept wing) and Ye-4 (delta) were the earliest of a series of prototypes for the MiG21, first flying in February and June 1955, and displayed at the Tushino airshow in 1956. Following on from the MiG-19, the prototypes were set to test which would be the most efficient wing for a transonic interceptor, later to become the MiG-21
These have been modified from the previous completed post, by moving the wings forward to their correct position. The Ye-2 is a heavily modified Trumpeter Chengdu F7-II, the Ye-4 is a modified Anami Area 88 MiG-21 F-13
And next on the build list, an actual MiG-21. A pre-production F
