10 days left! New units in Strategic Mind: Spectre of Communism | Part 5

In Strategic Mind: Blitzkrieg we introduced the jet fighter planes by adding a German Me-262. This time around we are happy to add the Soviet MiG-9 jet fighter plane. It was introduced only after the end of the war. However, in Strategic Mind: Spectre of Communism we have 3 alternate history operations in 1946, that allows us to give the stage to the first mass-produced Soviet jet plane.



MiG-9 used a reversed engineered version of the German BMW 003 engine. Like every pioneer model, it had its flaws. For example, it suffered from persistent problems with engine flameouts when firing its guns at high altitudes due to gun gas ingestion. Yet, despite all the shortcomings, the model was moderately successful and established the future line of Soviet jet planes. Like any jet fighter, it was largely superior to the planes of older generations. Thus, having such a modern weapon at one’s disposal provided a huge tactical advantage.

We will keep posting new units that will appear for the first time in the Strategic Mind series, so stay tuned!
