Russian designers Artem Mikoyan and Mikhail Gurevich became legendary by designing the MiG-15 (1947–48), an interceptor that could protect the Soviet Union from America’s strategic bombers such as the B-29 Superfortress. The MiG-15’s Klimov VK-1 turbojet engine propelled this single-seat fighter to speeds of 669 mph (1,075 kph) at altitudes up to 50,850 feet (15,500 meters). Over 12,000 MiG-15s were built and, counting license-built examples, the number probably reached 18,000.

The MiG-15 secured its place in history during the Korean War (1950–53), where North Korean, Chinese, and Russian pilots flew it against United Nations forces. The MiG-15 also made history on September 21, 1953 when a North Korean pilot defected to South Korea with his aircraft.

This MiG-15, displayed on the flight deck, is a Chinese-built example that is painted in the colors of one of the Soviet ace pilots during the Korean War. It was purchased by the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in 2006.
