Thank you guys for doing some old soviet planes. There is a lack of informative english language videos on the soviet aircraft from WW2 (other that the Il-2 that is)
True designer of MiG-3 (I-200 project) was Nikolai Polikarpov. Gurevich was his deputy. When Polikarpov was on a business trip to Germany, Mikoyan stole his plane. Stalin probably knew about this. Mikoyan was a friend of Stalin.
