  • The Soviet MiG-17 fighter was designed to be much more stable than its predecessor, The MiG-15 had been unstable at high rate and too tight a turn may cause an uncontrolled snap roll and spin. To overcome this problem, the fuselage was lengthened, tiny 'fences' were installed regarding the top areas of the wing to control airflow, as well as the wings swept right back 45 degrees. The additional room in the fuselage enabled the inner design and systems to be revised, and a more angular end had been added. These modifications offered the aircraft great security, essential for a fruitful tools platform. The MiG-17 joined frontline service in February, 1953. The Fresco-A maintained the original VK-1 turbojet regarding the MiG-15. A VK -1F engine with afterburner had been then fitted to the newest Fresco-C, or MiG -17F . A fixed-scan radar had been put into the MiG-17PF, or Fresco-D. The MiG-17PFU, Fresco-E, became the Soviet Union's first interceptor with its cannon deleted and four air-to-air missiles added.
