                                                                  New Delhi: It's a bittersweet day for the Indian Air Force (IAF) as its legacy fighter jet, the MiG-21, retires. The Russian-origin fighter jet's induction in the early 1960s catapulted the IAF into the jet age. Where will the retired jets be kept? We discuss.
Here's your 5-point cheatsheet to this big story

                                                                               

  • While nothing is confirmed, it would not be a surprise to see a MiG-21 at the Air Force Museum in Delhi's Palam in the near future.</p>
  • Many of the retired jets would be headed to museums across the world. Some reports say a few MiG-21s may be maintained in flying condition to be used as a ceremonial vintage squadron.</p>
  • Whether it would be the upgraded MiG-21 Bison or an older version that will continue flying as part of a vintage squadron remains to be seen.</p>
  • The MiG-21 used to be the mainstay of the IAF for a long period of time. After its first induction, the IAF procured over 870 MiG-21s to boost its overall combat prowess.</p>
  • Six decades later, they are given a huge farewell at Chandigarh air base. The Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) Tejas is the closest successor to the MiG-21.</p>
