About the MiG-23BN “Flogger-H”

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23 was developed during the Cold War as a supersonic fighter with a variable-geometry wing system, allowing it to adapt its wing sweep for different flight conditions. The BN variant, known by NATO as “Flogger-H,” was specifically adapted for ground-attack missions rather than air superiority.

The MiG-23 became one of the most widely produced swing-wing combat aircraft of its era and served with numerous air forces across the world. Its unusual design and operational history make it a popular subject for Cold War aviation modelling.
