Why is MiG-21 called "The Flying Coffin"? | History of MiG-21 | MiG-21 Crash |An Open Letter

India got its first MiG-21 back in 1960s and they worked best in 1971 war but over the time, these have run out of their shelf-life. Over the life, they have been given a notorious name of 'The Flying Coffin'. However, there are a few experts who have an opposing view.

In this video, I have talked about all of this through historical context, series of accidents and our plans to tackle this situation.
