The aircraft gets 60 mm bulletproof glass in front of the pilot and 10 mm of steel behind the pilot. At top-tier, this will not save you from much damage. The plane gets self-sealing fuel tanks in the wings and over the engine.

Usage in battles
Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Has access to R-3R, R-3S, R-13M, and R-60 anti-air missiles
- Decent radar to slave R-60s
- In a downtier, it can dominate hard with its gun and flight characteristics
- Fast plane
- Decent manoeuvrability at high speed
- Ballistic computer for rockets
Cons:
- Bad energy retention
- Poor acceleration
- Has to give up the gun for flare/chaff pod
- Suffers in uptiers
- RWR is only working in the rear, not all around
History
The MiG-21 SPS (also MiG-21 PFS) was a subvariant of MiG-21 PF. The acronym SPS comes from "сдув пограничного слоя" ("sduv pogranichnogo sloya") which means "blown flaps". For this, the engine was modified and received a new name R-11F2S-300, this engine redirected some air from the compressor to the flaps. The military wanted it to be able to take off from unpaved airfields, and these modifications shortened the takeoff run to 480 m on average and reduced the landing speed to 240 km/h. Two SPRD-99 (СПРД-99) boosters could be installed to shorten the takeoff run even more. It was mass-produced from 1961 to 1965.
