Welcome to another MiG-17F update. The team is working hard and continously with the current focus being on the MiG-17F systems and texturing. 
For this reason, today we would like to talk about one of those systems, the Radar Warning Receiver (RWR) Sirena 2 (SPO-2 / CPO-2) of the MiG-17F.
The MiG-17F was equipped with an early RWR system that could only detect radar signals from the rear hemisphere. The RWR receiver is mounted on top of the tail fin assembly.

Technical data:

Range: 5 – 6000 meters
Beamwidth: 50° vertical, 80° horizontal
The RWR Sirena-2 gave the pilot an audio warning signal that the airplane was being painted by a radar (from the rear); the audio signals varied according to the distance of the radar impulses that hit the antenna (the distance of the radar behind the MiG-17F).

Audio signals:

4 - 6 km: high-pitched, continuous sound
2 - 4 km: rising and falling howling tone
0 – 2 km: humming tone

Control of the Sirena 2 is managed by the main circuit breaker on the right side wall, while the control panel is located on top of the main instrument panel, to the left of the ASP-4N gunsight.
The control panel consists of a two-position power switch and two lights. The right light (red), indicated that the system was switched off. The left light (green), indicated that the system was on and operational.
We also have some pictures for you of the latest texture work. As always, everything you see is Work In Progress. Enjoy, and thank you for your continuous support!

^ Two extra hardpoints under the fuselage for bombs, plus extra hardpoints and racks under the wings for rockets.

Soviet and Warsaw Pact derivatives of -F didn't have these until Polish ground-attack Lim5M, 6 and 6 Bis versions also got developed with similar idea in mind.

Does this mean this version carries the  A-A missiles on the outer pylons?

Ah ok I was reading up on it and saw some F versions carried the A-A missiles so I'm guessing this one won't? To bad
