The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-1 (Микоян-Гуревич МиГ-1) was a Soviet fighter aircraft of World War II that was designed to meet a requirement for a high-altitude fighter issued in 1939. To minimize demand on strategic materials such as aluminum the aircraft was mostly constructed from steel tubing and wood. Flight testing revealed a number of deficiencies but it was ordered into production before they could be fixed.
