Several.

MiG-3, LaGG-3, Yak-3.  There are at least three threes missing.  Digging up useful information on them is a beast.  I know some Russian and I know a native speaker or ten who can translate anything I can't.  Just need to pry docs out of the archives of a hugely secretive establishment.  I'm going back there this summer, but nobody at the ministry of defense has heard of a Freedom of Information Act request.

Here's a Mig 3 captured by Germany:

And here is a picture of a Mig 3 in some sort of video game:

EDIT: Don't know about you, but the pictures wouldn't show until I right-clicked them and pressed "Show Picture".

Google. (http://www.google.com)

FYI: It's poor form to ask for a plane you know squat about. You don't know what it even looks like, or the stats. Might want to actually look up the aircraft before asking for it. Just a tip.

I'd definitely make it my ride of choice, as I like the Bf-109F-4, but it's not quite got the performance I need for the altitude I fly at (about 15,000 feet). The MiG-3 would be a very nice (and much-needed) early-war addition to AHII.

Well I think the best way to get to know a plane and see what it looks like would be to buy it Cobra:aok

I just love the look of the Mig-3.  Really does have such a cool factor about it.

I think the Mig-3U is the best looking of the bunch.

i want a MiG17 those are awesome lol. NOT A REQUEST FOR AH! I REPEAT, THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR A MIG17 IN AH! Thank you. The russians captured Ta-183 blueprints when they entered berlin and the MiG15 was born. 37mm and 2x 23mm is ownage lol. People know MiG for the jets, so idk if alot of ppl would kno what a MiG3 is. I know tho.

guess what! MiG-15 is not based off Ta-183 Huckebein!
They look similiar but those were charcateristic common in every jet of the time!
The jet age was young so everybody had about the same info, so they made similiar jets! Its like saying a Ki61 is based off a C.202, they look very similiar but the Japanese didnt borrow the C.202 schematics to make the Ki61!

Wrong.

 And IIRC they took a partly finished one back with them to, but the whole Ta-183/Mig thing is a myth.
