The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23 "Flogger" was one of the Soviet Union's most significant variable-sweep wing fighters of the Cold War — a fast, capable aircraft that equipped Warsaw Pact air forces and Soviet client states throughout the 1970s and '80s. Its distinctive swing-wing configuration gave it versatility across both air superiority and ground attack roles, and it remained a credible threat to NATO planners for decades. Academy's 1/144 kit captures the Flogger's angular fuselage and variable-geometry wings in a compact format ideal for Cold War jet collections.
