1/32 MiG-23 Flogger B
Trumpeter 1/32 MiG-23MF Flogger-B is a plastic kit of the Soviet swing-wing fighter. The kit contains 565 parts. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The MiG-23 was designed by the Mikoyan-Gurevich bureau as a supersonic variable-geometry fighter with a secondary ground-attack capability. The first prototype flew in 1967, and aircraft of the MiG-23 family were built in large numbers for the Soviet air arm and for export. The MiG-23MF was an export derivative of the MiG-23M, intended mainly for Warsaw Pact countries.
According to the manufacturer, the Trumpeter kit in 1/32 scale has 565 parts on 24 sprues, including separate upper and lower fuselage halves, tyres and a photo-etched fret. The wing sweep can be varied, the flaps can be fitted in different positions and the canopy is moulded in clear plastic. The finished model is almost 55 cm long.
The manufacturer lists two marking options: a MiG-23MF of the Czechoslovak 1st Fighter Air Regiment and an East German air force machine of JG 9 “Heinrich Rau”. The sizeable model will appeal to modellers who collect Warsaw Pact aircraft in large scale. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
Nationality: Czechoslovakia, Germany. Period: Cold War.
