Description

Designed and developed within the latter part of the 1960’s by Mikoyan-Gurevich, the Mig-23 has for several years been the backbone of this Warsaw Pacts’ fighter squadrons. Introduced into solution in the very early ‘70s to displace the quick and agile but operationally limited Mig-21, the Soviet single-seat fighter (NATO reporting title: Flogger) was characterized by the use of this variable swept-wing design. Due to its Tumanskij afterburning turbojet, the Mig-23 could reach a maximum speed of Mach 2.3. It was armed to do its primary role with a 23 mm. gun and might be full of different combinations of air-to-air missiles in its pylons. The ‘BN’ variation had been made to perform strike and close support missions. The fighter ended up being popular by the Warsaw Pact Bloc and also by the air forces of several nations supported by the previous Soviet Union. The Mig-23 has consequently played an active role in several local conflicts undertaking many different functional roles.
