This skin represents a MiG-21MFN of the Czech airforce. It was one of the last operational MiG-21's in the Czech airforce. The first time this MiG-21 MFN with this specific livery made its public debut was on may the 21st 2005 on Čáslav airbase.

Version 3. A small error in the texture of the left stabilizer has been discovered. A bit of orange and white was missing. Also the DDS files are compiled with Mipmaps.
This skin is not ready for DCS world version 1.5 and up. When 1.5 goes stable, a new and updated Czech 4003 special livery skin will be available for download.
This livery was made to honor and celebrate 44 years of MiG-21 in the Czech(oSlovakian) airforce. It is a very interesting livery. Not too flashy, but every part of the aircraft has been visually modified. The livery consists of the oval emblem of the airbase Čáslav, tiger print on the control surfaces and different texts on both sides of the spine. And of course the outline of the MiG-21 F13 on the fuselage. I don't know exactly how they did that, but it looks like a lot of work. Today, this beautiful machine rests on poles at the entrance of Čáslav airbase as a gateguard. After the final flight of the MiG-21 in Czech service, all airdefence duties were taken over by the Saab Gripen.
