Developed in the 1950s by the Soviet Union, the MiG-17F Fresco was a major step forward in Mikoyan-Gurevich design. The MiG-17F Fresco saw action in several major conflicts during the Cold War, including the Vietnam War and in Korean War aviation history. It was a key player in the air battles that defined much of the Cold War era.
This photo was taken August 8, 2025 at the Abbotsford International Airshow during the Friday afternoon/evening Twilight Show around the Blue Hour.
Pretty remarkable capture considering the lighting.
