Came across one of the most rare MiG-21's in the world. The book i was reading mentioned Blue 15 and i found her.
I got very intrigued by the fate of the MT versions. As it turns out shes just slowly rotting away in the mercy of nature in Dolgoye Ledovo.

She was ment to be an export product but the SMT/MT versions of the MiG-21 had bad flight characteristics because the expanded fatback fuel spine was making it instable.
Most of the SMT's got Bis spines instead to make em stable again from what i read.
Blue15 was probably the last from the 15 MT's they made for the export market. They never got sold though and there she stands....
This is not the way she was mend to end in my opinion and thats why i decided im was going to bring her into our world.
