The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23 is a Soviet supersonic fighter aircraft developed in the 1960s. It was designed as a multirole close combat aircraft and as an air defence fighter. The MiG-23 is equipped with a turbocharged engine that allows it to reach speeds of up to 2,500 km/h, and is also capable of high-speed maneuvering. The aircraft has also been equipped with advanced radar and electronic systems to track and destroy targets. The aircraft has been used in more than 30 countries and has been deployed in many conflicts around the world, including the Gulf War and the Soviet war in Afghanistan. It was also used in many other conflicts in the 1980s and 1990s. The MiG-23 was a highly successful aircraft that was admired for its high speed and maneuverability. However, it also had several limitations, such as limited flight endurance, which meant that it had to be escorted by tanker aircraft. It also had a limited ability to operate at low altitudes, which meant it was vulnerable to anti-aircraft defences.
