Shenyang J-6C/F-6C Farmer C (China, Egypt, Pakistan, Cambodia)

The MiG-19 was the first Soviet supersonic fighter developed in the early 1950s. Licence production of its clear-weather fighter model was started in China in 1961 under the designation Shenyang J-6 and in total 3,300 aircraft were built. The J-6C had the braking parachute installed at the base of the fin.
It was a single-seat, all-metal monoplane powered by two WP-6 (a licence-built Mikulin RD-9B) turbojets and designed for interception, close air support and limited fighter-bomber roles.
Besides the Chinese Air Force, Pakistan was the biggest foreign user of the Chinese J-6C models (export designation was the F-6C), receiving 120 aircraft. Other operators of these aeroplanes were Albania, Bangladesh, Congo, Egypt, Iraq, Cambodia (Kampuchea), North Korea and Somalia
