Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 speed brake

Original speed brake of a Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21 Fishbed jet. The item is in excellent condition and very clean. It can easily be incorporated in any setting. It is a lightweight item, especially considering its size. The back side allows for possible lighting to be added easily.

More drag

The speed brake, or air brake, is added to an aircraft design to increase drag. More drag means that an aircraft slows down. The MiG-21 has two speed brakes below the cockpit, one on either side of the fuselage.
