The MiG-23 Flogger is a high-speed swing-wing interceptor with a secondary capability of ground attack. Designed by the Mikoyan-Gurevich bureau in the Soviet Union, development began in 1964 and the prototype first flew in June 1967. It was delivered to Soviet Air Forces in 1970. A total of over 5,000 aircraft were built before production ended in the late 1980s, and large quantities were exported to countries outside the Soviet Union. The MiG-23MF Flogger-B was an export derivative of the MiG-23M, originally intended to be exported to Warsaw Pact countries.
