North Korean MiG-21MF Fishbed-J
tactical fighter type

It is a lesser known fact that the North Korean Air Force also received a small number of factory fresh MiG-21MF ‘Fishbed-J’ tactical fighter and MiG-21UM ‘Mongol-B’ two-seater trainer aircraft. Two squadrons of the MiG-21MF are said to be arriving from the Soviet Union in the first half of the 1970s.

Unfortunately, after the turn of the millennium, there is no information about them.
