Historically, are MiG-21s capable of being equipped for AAR?

 

I personally feel that all aircraft that have done it for real ought to be able to in DCS World. It is an excellent if difficult skill to perfect, and a major part of modern air operations.

 

It's one of the main attractions to the Typhoon, and I am certainly going to be at the front of the queue for that one!

Mig21’s were designed as quick response interceptors rather than long range CAP. So AAR wasn't really a priority

Actually first fighter to test aerial refueling in the Russian airforce was SU-27UB. They used aerial refueling for bombers. First Mig 29 which is equiped with aerial refueling system is SMT model, then Mig-29K, SU-33, SU-35, Su-34.....As someone said Mig 21 is short range interceptor, they were used for very quick response to any threat.

This photo had me wondering:

But it appears to be just wiring, those bombers back in old days some used to refuel wing to wing.:music_whistling:

Draken international MIG 21's are equipped with refuel prob's along with basic avionic upgrades like GPS,radios and TCAS. Same goes for Bisons of IAF AF. Would be really cool to see a mod including air refueling :D

Oh those crazy Finns. Let's hope the Buffalo is never added to DCS, lest the Finns use their Scandinavian magic to take over with it.

That's not a refueling probe. It's just a cover for the pitot tube. Why would Finns even install a refueling probe on the Mig, since we don't even have tanker aircraft?

 

Edit: A better image of the contraption:

I just quoted the Picture's description. Which said that was a refueling probe.

@rubbish You just seriously necromanced a 4 year old thread just to show a picture of a J-7 that has no refueling probe, just like all other J-7s??  🤨
