170:В ходе боев в Ливане летом 1982 года истребители МиГ-23МФ сирийских ВВС выполнили с 6 по 11 июня 52 боевых вылета и провели семь воздушных боев, сбив восемь пилотируемых самолетов израильтян (в том числе пять истребителей Локхид F-16А) и один БПЛА ВОМ-34, потеряв шесть машин. Истребители МиГ-23МС уничтожили два самолета Макдоннелл-Дуглас F-4Е (сирийские потери составили четыре самолета этого типа). Во время очередного обострения положения в Ливане, зимой 1982-1983 гг. сирийские МиГ-23МЛ сбили три израильских истребителя F-15А и один F-4Е, не понеся при этом потерь. Другим театром военных действий, на котором широко применялись МиГ-23, была Ангола, куда в 1985 году было направлено 50 самолетов МиГ-23МФ и МиГ-23БН, пилотируемых кубинцами. В 1987 году над северными районами Намибии самолетами МиГ 23 был сбит один истребитель Дассо "Мираж"F.1Z2. Во второй половине 1987 года еще один самолет "Мираж"2.1С2 в воздушном бою с МиГ-23МФ получил попадание ракетой Р-60 (однако сумел вернуться на базу). Кроме того, в Анголе самолетами МиГ-23 был уничтожен истребитель ВВС ЮАР Дассо "Мираж"III и штурмовик "Импала". Самолеты МиГ-23 различных модификаций широко использовались Ираком в войне с Ираном в 1980-1988 гг. Самолетом этого типа, вооруженным двумя управляемыми ракетами класса "воздух-поверхность", 17 мая 1987г был атакован и тяжело поврежден американский фрегат "Старк". В Афганистане истребители МиГ-23МЛД советских ВВС использовались для нанесения ударов по наземным целям, а также прикрывали действия ударных самолетов в пограничных с Ираном и Пакистаном районах. Советским истребителем МиГ-23МЛД был сбит самолет F-16А ВВС Пакистана, нарушивший воздушную границу Афганистана. В ходе войны в районе Персидского залива зимой 1991 года истребители США F-15С, по западным данным, сбили шесть самолетов МиГ-23, пытавшихся перелететь в Иран. В свою очередь, иракские истребители МиГ-23 сбили, как минимум, один самолет противника - истребитель-бомбардировщик "Торнадо" ВВС Италии, уничтоженный над Багдадом 18 февраля 1991 г парой МиГ-23МФ. 504:снарядов к пушке ГШ-23А. За шесть дней ливанской войны летчики эскадрильи совершили на МиГ-23МФ 52 самолетовылета, уничтожив по одним данным 6 израильских самолетов, по другим - 9 (шесть F-16, два F-15 один беспилотный разведчик). At the beginning war operations over Lebanon in 1982, the composition of the fighter squadron of the 17th air brigade of Syrian Ar Force (air base Of sigal) it was compoused by 21 aircraft MiG-23MF. The combat war load of the majority of the MiG-23MF of squadron included two R-23R, two R-60 and 200 projectiles to the gun -23. In six days of Lebanese war the pilots of squadron completed on MiG-23MF 52 sorties, after destroying according to one data 6 Israeli aircraft, on others - 9 (six F-16, two F-15 one pilotless UAV). Bold text as you can see i was not wrong however it is more common to claim the MiG-23MF shot down only six F-16 but other data included two F-15s, so as you can see both MiG-23 variants the MiG-23MF and MiG-23ML probably shot down four F-15s: 211:Первое крупное столкновение с участием МиГ-23 состоялось 19 сентября 1979 г., когда сирийские МиГ-23МС атаковали над Ливаном израильский разведчик Макдоннел-Дуглас RF-4 'Фантом' 2, однако не достигли успеха. В июне 1982 г. началось вторжение Израиля в Ливан. В небе долины р. Бекаа завязались ожесточенные бои между сирийской и израильской авиацией, кульминацией которых явилось воздушное сражение 10 июня. В бой было вовлечено 350 самолетов с обеих сторон. Сирийцы потеряли 22 истребителя (в том числе 4 МиГ-23МФ и 8 МиГ-23МС). Потери израильской авиации составили 10 истребителей. В целом ВВС Сирии с 6 по 11 июня, когда было заключено соглашение о прекращении огня, сбили в воздушных боях 23 и потеряли 47 самолетов. Двукратный перевес в сбитых самолетах объяснялся не только техническим превосходством F-15 над МиГ-23 первых модификаций, но и широкое использование Израилем самолетов ДРЛО и РЭБ, а также лучше отработанной тактикой боевого применения истребительной авиации. 183:Первое крупное столкновение с участием МиГ-23 состоялось 19 сентября 1979г., когда сирийские МиГ-23МС атаковали над Ливаном израильский разведчик Макдоннел-Дуглас RF-4 Фантом II, однако не достигли успеха.

К первым относились высокие скоростные и разгонные характеристики, дававшие МиГу возможность выполнять стремительную атаку и выходить из боя с высокой скоростью, переложив крыло на максимальный угол стреловидности, а также способность к относительно длительному полету на малой высоте со сложенным крылом. Слабыми сторонами МиГ-23МС и МиГ-23МФ явилась недостаточная маневренность по сравнению с F-15A, худшие характеристики бортовой РЛС и ракетного вооружения, плохой обзор из кабины. В конце 1982г. в Сирию прибыла партия из 50 усовершенствованных МиГ-23МЛ, что способствовало изменению качественного соотношения сил в воздухе в пользу Сирии. В декабре 1982г. начался "второй раунд" воздушных боев между сирийской и израильской авиацией. На этот раз успех сопутствовал сирийцам: их МиГ-23МЛ сбили три израильских F-15 и один F-4, не понеся при этом потерь. 192:В 1979г. советские вооруженные силы были введены в Афганистан. В составе частей ВВС, направленных в эту страну, находились и истребители МиГ-23, разместившиеся на аэродроме Кабул, а несколько позже - в Баграме. Помимо задач обороны от возможных действий ВВС Пакистана, МиГ-23МЛД широко использовались для нанесения ударов по наземным целям, причем потери от огня зенитных средств противника были минимальными: благодаря высокой тяговооруженности МиГ-23 резко набирали высоту после взлета и быстро выходили из зоны поражения ПЗРК, с которыми "душманы" подкарауливали свою добычу вблизи аэродромов. Кроме того, успешному применению МиГ-23 в условиях высокогорья способствовали хорошие взлетно-посадочные характеристики этой машины. В воздушном бою советские МиГ-23МЛД сбили один пакистанский истребитель F-16A. В то же время пакистанским истребителям удалось уничтожить два МиГ-23 ВВС Афганистана. 226:В 1979 г. советские вооруженные силы были введены в Афганистан.

Кроме того, успешному применению МиГ-23 в условиях высокогорья способствовали хорошие взлетно-посадочные характеристики этой машины. 195:МиГ-23МФ и МиГ-23МС активно использовались Ираком в войне с Ираном в 1980-1988гг. Самолеты привлекались для завоевания господства в воздухе и перехвата иранских самолетов, а также для нанесения ударов по наземным целям. 4 января 1989г. произошло боевое столкновение двух ливийских МиГ-23МС, выполняющих, по утверждению ливийского командования, обычный тренировочный полет над нейтральными водами Средиземного моря, с американским воздушным патрулем - двумя F-14A Томкэт с авианосца Джон Кеннеди. По сообщению американцев, Томкэты обнаружили ливийскую пару при помощи бортовых РЛС на удалении более 130 км. МиГи летели на высоте 10 000 м со скоростью 800 км/ч. Американцы сочли действия ливийской стороны угрожающими и сбили их. 975:. It is my recommendation that those who wish to present Russian-/Arab-sourced claims make the extra effort to find (reliable) sources presenting them. Why? First, the information becomes "accessible" to most of this Knowledge (XXG)'s readers. (Those who can read Russian or Arabic should look at it as their language skills allow them to more easily find information in these primary sources, so that they know what to look for among secondary English-language sources.) Secondly, English-only readers who want to learn more will have a place to go to for further information to make up their own minds. Third, if the Russian and Arabic claims presented in these articles are 1032:, particularly in cases where the government not only controls the release of information, but also has a vested interest in shaping domestic and foreign perceptions of significant military outcomes. In general, "socialist" countries — and here I mean socialism in its broadest sense — by nature vest greater powers to their government, including the "organs of propaganda," as the Soviets used to phrase it. (The more power given a government, the more power its politicians have to cover up any failures or ineptitude.) The period under debate above is one where most of the Arab states which fought Israel, Russia 1311:- MiG-23 was very heavy, because the fuselage centrebox, that held the main fuel tank and the fulcrums for the swing wing bearings and the main undercarriage attachment points, had to be constructed entirely of special steel to tolerate high G loads with the long wings. The centrebox needed plasma cutter when the MiG-23MF was eventually retired and scrapped, it was built like a tank. (Usually aircraft were as much aluminimum as possible until the 1980's and since then as much composite as possible, to keep weight down. It is a huge agility and range backdraw to have a steel heavy fighter.) 223:Другим театром военных действий, на котором широко применялись МиГ-23, была Ангола. В 1985 г. в эту страну было направлено 50 МиГ-23МФ, пилотируемых кубинцами. Самолеты немедленно были переброшены на юг страны, где вступили в боевые действия с авиацией Южно-Африканской Республики. Их основными противниками в воздухе стали истребители Дассо-Бреге 'Мираж'Т1С и 'Мираж' III. Несколько самолетов этих типов были уничтожены ангольскими и кубинскими истребителями МиГ-23, вооруженными УР Р-60. Ангольско-кубинские ВВС сумели завоевать и удержать господство в воздухе над южными районами страны. 189:Другим театром военных действий, на котором широко применялись МиГ-23, была Ангола.

К началу боевых действий Ирак располагал самолетами МиГ-23МФ и МиГ-23МС, которым предстояло померяться силами с новейшими западными истребителями, в частности, Макдоннел-Дуглас F-15C последних серий. Всего в ходе войны истребители США (по западным данным) сбили шесть самолетов МиГ-23 (все - самолетами F-15C). Сообщений о победах МиГ-23 в этой войне на Западе не публиковалось, однако, по арабским источникам, МиГ-23МФ сбили, как минимум, один F-16, применив УР Р-23 на встречных курсах. 1314:- The landing behaviour of MiG-23 was total opposite of the MiG-21. After touchdown, you let the control stick go forward in the MiG-21 and it stopped itself smoothly and nicely with the drag chute. If you did the same in the MiG-23, it bounced off, fell back, broke the main legs, bounced off again, fell back, broke the nose gear and caught fire. A lot of them were totalled this way, when re-training pilots who grew up with the MiG-21. Pilots had a mantra to recite on landing final, so they never give the stick forward out of bad habit. 776:] airplane is a MiG23 of the Libyan government. It also puts the picture next to "ground attack variants". Can anyone verify any of these facts? Supposedly the picture was taken March 19th over Benghazi. But on March 17th a Su-24 was also shot down over Benghazi. As both types look rather similar, given the bad quality of the picture, the question remains, what type of plane this is. In addition, there are no good sources as to which side the plane belonged. News channels state both sides varingly.-- 31: 930:
I've learned. First of all, the IAF understates aircraft losses. This shouldn't come as a surprise, given the need for Israel to appear as strong as possible against its more numerous Arab foes. In fact, until very recently it has been official policy to provide as little accurate public information as possible about Israeli losses of all sorts for all of its services. Again, this is understandable given Israel's geostrategic reality.
1052:
people who cannot read the primary languages (Arabic, Hebrew and Russian), then you need to do your best to identify English-language sources that present the information accurately. As I see it, the main "unfair" advantage the Israelis have is that much more of their story gets published in English than is true of the Arabs' and Russians' ... which you are in the position of being able to (at least partially) remedy. Cheers,

air combat campaigns: the tendency for combat-inexperienced to over-estimate their kill effectiveness in the dynamic, fluid and highly emotionally charged arena of aerial combat. Moreover, "real-time" battle damage assessment (BDA) remains a poorly developed art today even though there are fewer fighters and a whole lot more reconnaissance assets available than in previous wars. The "fog of war" has not been eliminated.
2336:
Mach 0.8 (940 km/h) with wings unswept - no mention of whether at low or high altitude. Ceiling is as stated, while the ferry range stated is with three 800L drop tanks. No combat radius, normal range or climb rate is given. The speeds quoted appear to be for the very different MiG-23BN. Deagle.com probably isn't a reliable source anyway and doesn't say what version the limited specs it does provide is for.
571:
at every article about the other Migs. Nowhere do I see it say according to the Russians this, arrocriding to Western sources this. We need more proof than a couple Russian fanboy site that most people in here can't read. Just becuae some pro-Russian sites say the Mig-23 shoot down a bunch of Israelis we are suppose to believe it vs articles written by AmMerican, European, Asain, and Israeli sources.
1321:- The radar was advanced by WARPAC standards, but it was built with non-integrated semiconductors and an analogue computer processor, so the quality of manual workmanship was most important for its performance and reliability. Soviet build quality was very much uneven and so there was 5x, rarely 10x difference in detection range and reliability of the radar sets between two MiG-23 of the same batch! 840:
repeated kills of the F-15 & F-16 ridiculous. The F-4 Phantom perhaps yes, but certainly not the other two advanced aircraft. It is, however, possible that they may have managed a one-off kill of the F-15 & F-16. Moreover, it did not have a better BVR missile than the F-16. In mock combat, the Bis ran circles round the swingwing! I you think MiG-21 cockpit vis is bad, try fly the swingers!
1467: 485:
to many russian articles they say a Minimun and that is quit important you can not say they did not shot down more than three F-15s, any way up to this moment the article has to say at least 5-6 F-16s and at least 3 F-15s and the 14 MiG-23BN shot down were shot down by AAA and F-16 working in conjuction and that gives a tally of 26 MiG-23 shot down according to russian sources

В целом, истребители ВВС Сирии в ходе активных боевых действий с 6 по 12 июня 1982 г уничтожили в воздушных боях 42 израильских самолета (в том числе, как минимум, пять F-15A и шесть F-16A), а также один ДПЛА, потеряв при этом четыре МиГ-23МС, шесть МиГ-23МФ, 26 МиГ-21бис и 11 МиГ-21МФ. 357:Боевое крещение МиГ-23 произошло в небе Ливана.

Essentially it was just as a big human burden, as the Harrier's simultaneous handling of throttle + nozzle vectoring handle with one hand and caused just as many mishaps. 1830:? But the biggest thing that I have a issue with is in the comment above this one about the Iran F-14 victorys over Mig-23s. That they came from a book that was written based on the accounts of the Iranian pilots that it was questionable. But I believe that you have done the same for citing F-16s kills as confirmed. 2017:
Numbers shown there are just wrong. Libyan Air Force is showing a bit more than 1 MiG-21 flying. There have been 3-4 MiG-21's and a couple of MiG-23's as far as few days ago. Syrian Air Force statistics look totally wrong. Their numbers on smaller or "hostile" air forces where the MiG-23 is likely to
1129:
In few words as a fighter it is not unlikely F-4s or F-5s were shot down by MiG-23s niether it is unlikely that in the 1980s a few F-16s and F-15 fell pray to the MiG-23 weapons. The MiG-23 proved that if well flown it could achieve kill rates of 2:1 to its favour against even the ultra maneouvrable

embraced socialism — i.e., were closed societies to some degree or another. Israel was a sort of schizophrenic case. It was quite open where culture and business were concerned, but the most closed of all of these (including the USSR) where the military was involved. It has only been in the last year
816:
Now if you say these books are non Western there are books published in the west that also claim the MiG-23 killed F-16, F-15s , Mirage F1 and other aircraft, one of these and the most important is the famous series of books by the British aviation publisher Ian Allen from the series of books AEROFAX
759:
On the other hand, providing (or even showcasing) the Russian view offers something new to more readers to inspire more research. If the Russian view is correct, then it may help open the path to a true reanalysis. Well, and if it is wrong ... well, we did present the Western side as well, and in any
719:
In fact, by the examples you gave, what we perhaps should do is use a purely Russian view. After all, the Western POV had a free ride in the Israeli article and also the F-4 article (and probably the F-15 and F-16 too). That would maintain a wierd kind of NPOV (if an adversarial one) throughout Wiki.
517:
I took out the reference to Bulgaria still flying Mig-23s. It has been three years they have not flown Mig-23s! I don't know how many times I have given sources for it! Here is the latest one. In the October 2006 issue of Air Forces Monthly there is a story devoted to the Bulgarian Aif Force. On
484:
You have corrected me thanks, i was wrong, i did read only some fragments, but you are correct after you have shown me those paragraphs however the 14 MiG-23BN i read F-16s shot them down so still you can say 14 MiG-23BN were shot down by F-16 in conjuction with AAA. However consider that according

This article says fourteen MiG-23BN were shot down by F-16s that were patroling at low altitude: начала воевать более эффективно и совместно с истребителями F-16A, действовавшими на малых высотах, сбила 14 МиГ-23БН. Израильским зенитчикам бросилось в глаза отсутствие грамотного планирования сирийцами

The Mig-23 MLD is the last version of the Mig-23 role fighter . It's possible that the max speed is just 1880 km/h at high altitude  ? In the book " MiG-23/27 Flogger: Soviet Swing-Wing Fighter / Strike Aircraft" (Aerofax) by Yefim Gordon the max speed of Mig-23 MLD is indicated as 2.500 km/h ,
1406:
Essentially yes, but they also had several previous articles in the hungarian "Aranysas" (ex Top Gun) about the MiG-23. The low production number, only about 1500pcs of the MiG-23/27 family proves it was not a good combat aircraft design. Anything prior to MiG-23 MLD variant had little combat value.
1185:
If you want to fix up the service career, we need to do something about the way it is written. Putting Soviet view and Western View over and over again sounds horrible. Why not split that up and put a Western Pov section and Soviet Pov section. This article looked horrible the way it was before.
1046:
My point remains, though, that declaiming each other's POV does nothing to advance the quality of this article. Neither side can demonstrate they have God's perfect view, although the case can be made that one side is more likely to be closer to it. There is nothing wrong with presenting both sides'
933:
It is also true that not all kills reported by Arab and Soviet Union sources can be verified. In part this is the result of propaganda ministries trying to soften the blow of lopsided loss-exchange ratios; however, some of it is due to a common experience by all air forces involved in high-intensity

As a Mirage 2000 pilot with the Indian Air Force, I have had the good luck to fly the MiG-21FL, MiG-21M, MiG-21Bis, the MiG-23- both the GA and AD versions & the Indianised and later licence-produced in India by Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd MiG-27. I find the claim that this swing wing aircraft has

The Russian Book ОКБ им. А.И.МИКОЯНА by the Russian publisher Polygon, reports the MiG-23 shot down F-15s, F-4s and F-16s, this Book was written with soviet and russian first hand information, supported by Belyakov who was once the Chief general director of MAPO MiG. This book got direct information
570:
What kind of logic is that? There is hundreds and hundreds of sources that dispute the Russian claims, but a couple fanboy Russian sites makes those points invalid, are you joking? Make a seperate section for the Russian view. The Western view is the one that is supported with many sources. Look
372:
If you have read the links i gave in special the one by www.waronline.org you will see that the main argument of against the Russians claims is the lack of pictorial evidence. however you will see also very scarse Israeli evicence of their kills too In that webpage they say the Israelis lost in 1982
1692:
And I'm also entitled to an opinion. The two of you seem to be at each others throats wherever you run into each other. I don't know if you run into each other by accident or through deliberate stalking, but whatever it is it is boring. As well as destructive. As for claims versus kills, kills must

It is interesting that they mention early MiG-23, Russian airticles mention similar things but these were solve in newer MiG-23 variants like the MiG-23ML and MiG-23MLD, so far hungary never operated those improved variants so that article can not be generalized to accept MiG-23 losses or claim the

Okay, gentlemen, enough with the insult and slander. I've yet to see an article benefit from it. I have spent many years studying air forces around the world — including the Israeli Air Force — with a focus on discovering "ground truth." I don't have any axes to grind, so let me share a few things

and Deagle.com). Belyakov and Marmain does not give specifications for the MLD but does for the similar ML - the dimensions match (although no height is quoted) and the loaded and max take-off weights match (no empty weight is given). It quotes a speed of Mach 2.35 (2500 km/h) with wings swept and
2171:
Is it possible to get more on these areas? Some posters on these talk pages refer to the use of a lot of steel in the wing box, which is quite believable, but not in the main article and what about the rest of the airframe.? Why was the undercarriage so configured? I have read elsewhere that there
1327:- MiG-23 has a tendency to fall into a progressive stall death spiral when the wings are highly swept back at low altitude and the psychological condition of the pilot is not ideal. The window for correction is just 0,5 seconds, so the plane ends up underground if the pilot is not perfectly alert. 1115:
When we rate the MiG-23, we would see basicly it is a fighter between the F-4 and the F-16 in terms of capabilities but definetively is not a fourth generation aircraft because in many ways it is not as capable as the F-15, F-14, F-16 , F-18 or Mirage 2000 although using the right tactics it still
