Photos of SyAAF MiG-21s


 

Few photos for SyAAF MiG-21's of different variants been collected from web and gathered to be posted here.
Starting with a MiG-21MF with four AA-2 Atoll missiles fitted on, might be photographed in Dhmeyr AFB (note the angular shape of HAS).


Another MiG-21MF with serial 1549 photographed in Dhmeyr AFB, this time with the Syrian hero Majeed Al Zughbi who claimed Seven air victories against IAF.

 
Another still for the same MiG-21MF.
 

A still for MiG-21 could be an 'M' variant as it carries the serial 19xx (a batch was delivered from East Germany shortly after the 1973 war) extracted from a media, referring to the old Syrian flag at the fin, it means this was videoed in late 1970s.

MiG-21MF with serial 460, also in display at the entrance of Al Tabaqa AFB.
