HISTORY ASPECTS:
The Mikoyan MiG-21MF LanceR C, operated by the 712th Fighter Squadron of the Romanian Air Force in 2002, has a storied history as a capable supersonic jet interceptor and multi-role fighter. While not directly involved in large-scale conflicts during its service, the LanceR C variant has been part of Romania's defense and has contributed to regional stability.
One significant aspect of the MiG-21MF LanceR C's history is its modernization program carried out by the Romanian Air Force, known as the LanceR program. This initiative aimed to upgrade existing MiG-21s to enhance their avionics, weaponry, and overall performance, extending their operational life. The LanceR C variant, equipped with modern radar and avionic systems, showcased Romania's commitment to maintaining a capable air defense force.
The 1:100 scale model is a testament to the aircraft's longevity and the dedication of the Romanian military to keep their fleet technologically relevant. Aviation enthusiasts can now own a meticulously detailed replica that pays homage to the LanceR C's service history and its role in securing Romania's airspace.
