Tthe 미코얀 구레비치 미G-15 (Russian: Микоян и Гуревич МиГ-15; NATO reporting name: “Fagot”) was a jet fighter aircraft developed by Mikoyan-Gurevich OKB for the Soviet Union. The MiG-15 was one of the first successful jet fighters to incorporate swept wings to achieve high transonic speeds. In combat over Korea, it outclassed straight-winged jet day fighters which were largely relegated to ground attack roles, and was quickly countered by the similar American swept-wing F-86 Sabre. The MiG-15 is often mentioned, along with the North American F-86 Sabre, as the best fighter aircraft of the Korean War, and among the best fighter aircraft of all time.
When refined into the more advanced MiG-17, the basic design would again surprise the West when it proved effective against supersonic fighters such as the F-105 Thunderchief and McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II in the Vietnam War of the 1960s.
The MiG-15 is believed to have been one of the most widely produced jet aircraft ever made; in excess of 12,000 were manufactured. Licensed foreign production may have raised the production total to over 18,000. The MiG-15 remains in service with the North Korean Air Force as an advanced trainer.

Tthe MiG-15bis 1940년대 후반 소련을 위해 Mikoyan-Gurevich가 개발한 제트 전투기인 MiG-15의 개량형이었다. MiG-15bis는 더 세련된 생산과 약간 더 강력한 엔진 덕분에 더 나은 성능을 발휘했습니다. 또한 각 날개 아래에 무기와 외부 연료 탱크를 운반할 수 있는 3개의 하드 포인트가 있었습니다. 1949년 말에 취역하여 한국 전쟁에서 널리 사용되어 당시 대부분의 서양 전투기보다 우수하다는 것이 입증되었습니다. MiG-15bis는 역사상 가장 많이 생산된 제트기 중 하나였으며 소련에서 18,000대 이상이 제작되었으며 다른 국가에서 허가를 받았습니다.
