CFS Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG15 Fagot in Egyptian Air Force (EAF) Livery.

Egypt bought a handful of MiG-15bis and MiG-17 fighters in 1955 from Czechoslovakia with the sponsorship and support of the USSR, just in time to participate in the Suez Canal Crisis. During the air combat against the Israeli Air Force the Egyptian MiG-15bis's managed to shoot down at least three Israeli aircraft in spite of suffering several losses: a Piper Cub and a Meteor F.8 on 30 October 1956, and a Dassault Ouragan on 1 November which then performed a belly landing – this last victory was scored by the Egyptian pilot Faruq el-Gazzavi.
