The MiG-19. The Farmer. The ginger middle child of messers. Mikoyan and Gurevich.

Everyone likes the MiG-15, everyone knows the MiG-17. The MiG-21 is one of the most ubiquitous combat aircraft of the modern age. OK; the MiG-23 quite frankly sucked balls and the follow up MiG-27 wasn't even a fighter, but no one really cares about those swing wing twits anyway.

The Fulcrum is a wonderful aeroplane and the Foxbat is, well, batty.

But the 19? Who has love for the 19? Well - the Chinese, for one - they bloody loved the MiG-19. So much so that they copied it, improved it, called it the Shenyang J-6, exported it like crazy (as the Shenyang F-6) and even based a fighter bomber on it (The Nanchang Q-5).

So - yeah, not really a popular type (the Vietnamese AF far preferred the MiG-17 over it during the war - you know which one...) but the Chinese liked it.

And that's good enough for me because I like it too.

It looks like the sort of jet you drew as a school boy - all sharp wing sweep, arbitrary pointy bits, big guns and a gaping nose inlet. It looks like the fevered scribblings of some lunatic savant that was locked in the basement of the Kremlin, given a crayon and told to draw the coolest jet fighter they could imagine.
