Raymond Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Hiya this originally was going to be an Ethiopian bird, but those decals went on another project!! so i decided to use this semi-completed model for the groupbuild! as a result of the Iraq-Iran war, a number of Iraqi MiG-23BNs were modified for increased battlefield survivability; in a similar manner to the later modified MiG-23MFs, a few Iraqi MiG-23BNs received ASO-2 flare dispensors from Su-22s mounted on the top of the fuselage, and "Sirena 3" Warning systems, replacing the non existent, or basic RWR fitted to soviet export models. heres a photograph of a surviving modded MiG-23BN (on the right) ive added the attachments from my spares box, which just need some light sanding to go, then into the paintshop!

Benner Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Since you started this build as an Ethiopian build, I'm not sure this build of yours is eligible for the Desert Storm Group Build Quote Link to post Share on other sites
