Wiki:
The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 (NATO reporting name: Fishbed) is a supersonic jet fighter and interceptor aircraft, designed by the Mikoyan-Gurevich Design Bureau in the Soviet Union. Its nicknames include: "balalaika", because its planform resembles the stringed musical instrument of the same name; "Olówek", Polish for "pencil", due to the shape of its fuselage, and "Én B?c", meaning "silver swallow", in Vietnamese.

Approximately 60 countries across four continents have flown the MiG-21, and it still serves many nations six decades after its maiden flight. It made aviation records, becoming the most-produced supersonic jet aircraft in aviation history, the most-produced combat aircraft since the Korean War and, previously, the longest production run of any combat aircraft (now exceeded by both the McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle and General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon).

This is my MiG-21 fighter jet. It’s pretty fast with a speed close of Mach 2, thanks to a working afterburner. I can’t figure out what to put here, so time for controls and explaining the cockpit.

Controls:
AG 1: Canopy.
AG 2: Afterburner.
AG 3: Jettison Missiles.
VTOL: Flaps.

IMPORTANT NOTE: YOUR MAIN GUNS ARE CANNONS, SO THE JOYSTICK FIRES WEAPONS LIKE CANNONS AND MISSILES!

Cockpit:
Big Button At The Middle Of The Radar: Target Mode.
Buttons To Left Of Radar: Next And Previous Target.
Buttons To Right Of Radar: Next And Previous Weapons.
Button By Throttle: Flares.
Lever Closest On The Right: Flaps.
Lever All The Way To The Right: Trim.
Button By Flaps: Landing Gear.
Button By Trim: Trim Reset.

Sorry about all of that, now enjoy!
