Overview

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-3 was a Soviet high-altitude interceptor fighter of World War II. When it first appeared in 1941, it was one of the fastest and most capable interceptors in the world, designed to engage high-flying enemy bombers. While it was less suited to the low-altitude dogfighting common on the Eastern Front, the MiG-3 played a crucial and heroic role in the air defence of Moscow during the critical winter of 1941-1942.

This large 1/32 scale kit from Trumpeter is a detailed replica of the famous Soviet fighter. With over 130 parts, the model features premium details such as photo-etched hinges and sturdy metal shafts for the ailerons and flaps, allowing them to be accurately and securely positioned. The kit builds into an impressive and large-scale model of this important early-war fighter, famously flown by top Soviet ace Alexander Pokryshkin.
