Petrovec - dumped MiG?

Post by patrick dirksen »

Hi, the news item of the Macedonian Frogfoots possibly going to the Ukraine (see https://www.scramble.nl/military-news/m ... to-ukraine) is accompanied by a photo with an overview of the storage ramp. On the right hand side is the fuselage of something that resembles a MiG. Anybody who knows what this is?
Cheers,

Looks like an F-86 to me.

Various D-models were reported there in the late 80s. See Sramble DB:-)
