Seventies-era Soviet Strikers

Developed during the seventies as a "third generation" fighter interceptor, the Mikoyan-23 was designed with variable-sweep wings to improve its ability to take off with large loads of ordnance. The huge numbers of "Floggers" built were eventually outclassed by the fourth generation of fighters and many were converted to the Mikoyan-27 fighter bomber standard. These aircraft carried improved targeting systems for attacking ground targets and were available in the closing days of the Soviet-Afghan war. This limited edition kit combo features two models, each with two sets of decals.
