English version :

A new improved version of the Mig X with a cockpit.

The MiG-X "Rhombus" or "Rhomboid", a plane created by journalists, which never flew on paper. Here's the real story.

In 1954, an article by aircraft designer Mikoyan on diamond-shaped or delta wings appeared in the Western press.
The article was published in several magazines and sparked quite an interesting reaction. Many journalists have decided
that the USSR had already built a fighter with a similar wing. For the first time, reconstruction appeared in the
“French aviation journal” in 1956. The plane is simply and unpretentiously called “the MiG”. According to the description, it
It was a supersonic interceptor, armed with two cannons, without any additional details. Since that moment, history of this
had this written in the magazines. Soon it received the name MiG-X.
The description of the aircraft has also changed. In the Italian "Journal of Aviation" they wrote that this interceptor was already in
mass production . The Spanish aviation almanac already reported the presence of guided missiles in the armament of
the plane . And in the French magazine "Avion" suddenly became a combat training subsonic fighter.
Thus, with different images, the MiG-X surfaced in several articles until the late 1960s.

Helge Bergander is a great expert on Soviet aircraft, very familiar with newspapers and magazines of the time.
Here is the explanation he gives about the mysterious Mig X. AI Mikoyan (Anastasy Ivanovich Mikoyan), published an article on June 19, 1954
in the daily “Sovietskaya Literatura”. This article was also translated and published in British and American magazines "Aviation Week September 20, 1954".
AI Mikoyan does not write specifically about Mig aircraft, but about the entire Soviet aircraft industry. The term “rhomboidal wing” appears. He comes from
TSAGI, (Russian Central Institute of Aerohydrodynamics) and does not mean rhombus as a mathematical-geometric term, but
a delta wing with a negative swept trailing edge as used on the Tsybin RSR, Myasishchev M-54 or Convair B-58.
Here is the story, The MiG
newspaper misunderstood or poorly translated.

I created this unique plane on SimplePlanes from the "Russian Rhomboid" plan. I found it completely by chance while searching.
on the Net . The article is called "Soviet Aircraft - Cold War Phantom Fighters".
The five drawings are the only ones in existence, to my knowledge.

-Key 1: left reactor.
-Key 2: right reactor.
-Key 3: Position lights.
-Key 4: Landing lights.
-Key 5: Airbrakes.
-Key 6: Parachute brake.
-Key 7: Release external tanks.
-Key 8: Front axle lock.
-Power >90% to activate post-combustion.

-Trim: Trim.
-Vtol: shutter.
