| LASTWOODSMAN | Dumas Kit #233. MiG 17 | Parked | 27-Dec-16 12:55 |  | | Views : 807 | | The Mig 17 (advanced from the Mig 15 of the Korean War - where the Mig 15 fought the F86 Sabre), had the easily visible difference of an added "ventral fin" under the rear fuselage (the Mig 15 had none), and the Mig 17 also had an added third "wing fence" on each wing. |
