Ага,ён самый. Вместе с израильским пилотом который его обкатывал и задействовали:
"The captured plane almost went into combat in the spring of 1967. At the time, a mystery enemy plane, which seemed to be a MiG-21, made occasional appearances on Israeli radar screens. It used to cross the Jordanian-Egyptian border over Eilat, and the IAF Staff was concerned that by the possibility it was taking reconnaissance photographs of the Israeli 7th Regiment, which was arrayed along the border with Egypt. The Mirages that had been scrambled towards had not even been able to make eye contact with it, and Shapira suggested putting the MiG-21 - which had better acceleration than the Mirage - on interception alert. The green light was given. The MiG was equipped with Shafrir air-to-air missiles and shells, and Shapira sat in the cockpit for three days, awaiting the moment in which he would be scrambled to meet the MiG. But the mystery MiG never showed up."
Отсюда
Но слухи говорят что и во время операции "Фокус" иракский МиГ привлекался для дежурства ПВО - потому как опасения насчет воздушных боев с арабскими ВВС были серьезные, в готовность привели всё что могло летать и стрелять.
