The fighter jet shaped the era of the Cold War. The MiG-21 was one of the most important aircraft of the third generation and was developed in the Soviet Union. It was widely used by the states of the Warsaw Pact. In Poland, the MiG-21 was put into service in 1963, and its successor variants remained in use until 2003.

In Czechoslovakia, it served for decades as the most important fighter aircraft of the air defense. The MiG-21 was used not only in Poland, the GDR, Czechoslovakia, and the USSR, but also in dozens of countries worldwide. It participated in numerous conflicts in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America.
