The Chengdu J-7C is a Chinese-built version of the Soviet MiG-21 for the People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF), introduced in the early 1990s. It features a single Liyang WP-13F turbojet, capable of Mach 2 and a service ceiling around 57,000 ft. The J-7C has improved avionics, including the JL-7 radar, fire-control systems, and a modern ejection seat. Armament includes a ventral 23mm twin-barrel gun, five hardpoints for missiles, bombs, or drop tanks, and air-to-air missiles such as the PL-2 or PL-5. Primarily a short-range interceptor, it also served in ground-attack roles. The J-7C is gradually being retired as the PLAAF moves to more advanced aircraft.
Designed as a Chinese produced version of the MiG-21, the J-7 was first flown in January, 1966. © Copyright 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
Hobby Master's 1:72 scale MiG-21 is constructed in diecast metal with only the smallest amount of plastic used. The configurable cockpit canopy provides a clear view of the interior and pilot figure and the central air brake is deployable. A G-P9 cannon pod with hand-painted 23mm twin-barrel 23mm can be seen below the cockpit. The wing is crafted of solid metal, and structural details can be seen inside the wheel wells and inboard gear doors. Each wingtip has an integrated fence and air date sensors. Ordnance includes removable fuel tanks and K-13A air-to-air missiles.
