mig 21 F cockpit - MIG 19 seat

The MF cockpit is a bit different than the F, F-13, or PF cockpit. The early ones with the one-part canopy hinged at the front had a different ejector seat (SK-1) and instrument panel shroud with a thick piece of armor glass. There are probably panel differences also, but the seat and IP shrourd are the big changes.

 

AFAIK, the ejection seat on the Russian-built MiG-19 was the same KK-2 on all varients. The MiG-21 MF used the MF-1 seat, which was vastly different than the KK-2 seat.

One more correction. There is SK-1 seat in the cockpit of MiG-21F and KM-1(KM-1M) in later versions of MiG-21.

There are more other differencies like cockpit color grey instead of blue/green for MiG-21F, etc.

Best reference about differencies between MiG-21F and MF cockpit you`ll find in 4+ publication dedicated to MiG-21.
