The MiG-9 was a clumsy-looking aircraft, but quite historic. It was the first jet aircraft used by the Chinese People's Liberation Army Air Force just prior to the Korean War. In his book Red Wings Over the Yalu: China, the Soviet Union, and the Air War in Korea (College Station: Texas A&M University Press, 2009), Xiaoming Zhang discusses and provides photos of these PLAAF aircraft, which were soon superseded by the MiG-15.

Thanks for letting us know about and providing an assessment of this model, Leif.
