The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-3 was a Soviet fighter-interceptor used during World War II. Originally designed as a high-altitude fighter-interceptor, combat over the Eastern Front was generally at lower altitudes, where it was inferior to the German Messerschmitt Bf 109 as well as most of its Soviet contemporaries. It was also pressed into service as a fighter-bomber during the autumn of 1941 but it was equally unsuited for this.
The Comet Authenticast airplane miniatures were originally constructed under a Federal program sponsored by the Navy Department for a set of aircraft identification models suitable for distribution to smaller vessels and forward areas. The 1:432 scale (1" equals 36 feet) was picked so that when the model was held 18" away from you, it would appear the same as the real aircraft at a distance of 1/2 mile.
