Mikoyan MiG-23 & MiG-27: Famous Russian Aircraft Gordon Yefim
Originally conceived as a replacement for the famous MiG-21, changing priorities turned the MiG-23 into a STOL fighter with variable-geometry wings that first flew in June 1967. This, in turn, was progressively improved as the MiG-27D/MiG-27M and the MiG-27K.The MiG-23 family was widely exported. After two years of testing, the aircraft, codename Flogger, entered service in 1969.From then on development of the Flogger proceeded along two parallel lines originally as a fighter/interceptor with a two-seat trainer variant and later as a fighter/bomber which evolved into the MiG-27 used by the Soviet Air Force.
Later, second-hand machines were sold from CIS stocks to various parts of the world, which allowed the MiG-23 to remain active abroad longer than in New aircraft were supplied to the Soviet Union's Warsaw Pact allies and selected nations in the Middle East, Africa and Asia.
