Many Fishbeds still fly but are at the end of their resources...

Every 5 years or so our AF says that resource for Fishbeds are near ending. And we still have 30 operational BiS kites, so go figure. :grin:

Maybe then can go on forever? Hehe :good:

The Mig-21 may be the most successive fighter ever in terms of long service, like the AK-47. grin.gif

Well it kinda comes with longevity, it's a 1950's design flying all this time...

Plus many of the nations flying them never put much resources into training. I doubt they'd have survived more often even in better planes.
