The MiG-3 fighter plane, like the history of the creation of the
Mikoyan and Gurevich (Микоян и Гуревич) design
bureau, is relatively well known to anyone interested in the
history of Soviet aviation. Many books and articles have been
published about this machine, but information about the
circumstances of the birth of the project and the conditions of its
creation are very brief and concise. MiG-1 and MiG-3 were the most
numerous new generation fighters in Soviet aviation at the time of
the German invasion of the USSR. They played a very important role
in the first period of the war. Until now, it has been assumed in
the literature that this applies mainly to the use of these
aircraft during the battle of Moscow, as well as capital's and
Leningrad's air defence, but MiGs also took on a large weight of
air combat at the front in 1941.
