Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-6

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mikoyan-Gurewitsch MiG-6 ( Russian Микоян-Гуревич МиГ-6 ) is the name for a Soviet aircraft project from 1940.

Mikoyan and Gurevich developed the heavy, armored attack aircraft TSch (Tjaschely Schturmowik) under the project designation "65" according to the technical requirements for a model competing with the Ilyushin Il-2 . The intended official name when taking over the service was MiG-6. It stayed with paperwork. This happened parallel to the corresponding work by Sukhoi, which led to the Sukhoi Su-6 .
