Mikoyan MiG-9 01 Red
The MiG-9 was the first pure jet design from Mikoyan. 610 examples were built from 1946 to 1948. The type suffered from various issues that were typical of all early jets, mainly with the engines.
One of only 3 complete airframes left in existance, this example is the only one left in the former Soviet Union, with the other two at Chinese museums in Bejing.
