Either way, it turned out quite realistic. What's the story behind it? Did Bazu ever fly this in wartime? Any kills attributed to this particular plane? Good job!

This was a problem, because Ilyushin Il-2 was in higher esteem as useful aircraft for the Red Army, thus always got priority in engine supplies. And this "Soviet" engine (Klimov M-100) was actually licensed from Hispano-Suiza (a copy of Hispano-Suiza 12Y). Klimov improved the engine into Klimov VK-105, but this product did not end inside MiG-3.

The known story

QUOTE

Другим пользователем МиГов стала Румыния. В 1941 году в руки румын попал по меньшей мере один исправный МиГ, о котором имеется подтвержденная информация. 3 декабря 1941 года на аэродроме в Мелитополе приземлился МиГ, который перегнал через линию фронта украинский дезертир. Самолет включили в состав 19-й разведывательной эскадрильи, где уже находился один И-16. МиГу присвоили тактический номер «2» (номер «1» нес И-16). Румыны летали на этом МиГе долго, самолет дождался «освобождения» советскими войсками в сентябре 1944 года. К этому времени самолет нес характерный для румынской авиации пятнистый камуфляж.
