Love the gun tray. That alone makes the MiG-15 a fantastic fighter design!! How simple, yet completely ingenious.
 
Very cool Joe, Is that a Polish built one?

Perfect place for the batteries!

Smart! Thought there was something odd about a battery connector in the gun bay.
 
Yes, Polish built, converted from a single seat.

That's novel considering there are so many UTIs out there. Did they switch forward fuselages or dig a hole aft of the cockpit of the single-seater?
 
Removed some paneling, restructured some longerons, cut about the forward fuel tank (just behind the cockpit) and relocated and/or removed some equipment before fitting dualed controls, instruments etc, although I belive converted ones didn't have an Instructors ejection seat.
Also this work would also have given some Soviet Poles and engineering concerns a job for a time too.

I'll bet no ejection seat for the instructor resulted in some very careful flight training.
