The MiG-17 (which I forgot to post after creating it months ago), although outwardly similar to the MiG-15, was in fact a completely different aircraft. R&D started in 1949 and was the last design in which Mikhail Gurevich actually had a direct role.
Service deliveries commenced in 1952, with total production numbering over 5000.
Part of my Cold War Series.
As always, please feel to critique and provide constructive feedback!
