Photo Comment

This unmarked former Russian MiG-21F is preserved in the Polish town of Szprotawa, that used to have a Soviet base. The aircraft was placed here in 1985, with Polish markings added. The aircraft remained in place, but the Soviet stars were removed indicating the changed relationship between Poland and Russia.
