boom175 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I know Cuban MiG-21bis' were but I am trying to find out if any of the MF type were. I read where up to two squadrons (or detachments) of MF's were sent to Angoloa and flew in Angoloan markings. Did any of those come back to Cuba and receive the distinctive Olive/Blue over bluish grey camo or did they retain the African camo scheme? More inportantly are there any pics? I have found plenty of bis' but except for one in a museum no camoed MF's Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
john53 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) I'm not sure if this helps but my Aztec decal sheet, 48/72-047, Cuban Raiders, shows Mig-21MF black 672, as green and grey over blue, says picture was taken at Key West 1993. The other Mig-21MF is black 665 which shows blue, grey green over blue, there's a picture of it at San Antonio de los Banos Airport.---John Edited April 4, 2018 by john53 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(of course I could be wrong!) thanks for replying, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
