Following a protracted research and development phase, Mikoyan
Gurevich’s MiG-23 finally entered service with the former Soviet Air
Force in the early 1970s. Almost immediately, a number of foreign
customers pressed Moscow for deliveries of this long-overdue type,
expected to succeed the popular MiG-21 as a standard interceptor.
Correspondingly, large numbers of MiG-23 interceptors and
fighter-bombers were exported to five major Arab air forces in the
mid-1970s.
This is a detailed history of the operational service
of this Soviet-manufactured interceptor and its fighter-bomber variants
in service with Algerian, Egyptian, Iraqi, Libyan, and Syrian air
forces, since 1974. While Egypt purchased only a handful before its
final break with Moscow, and Algeria limited related acquisitions, Iraq,
Libya and Syria continued purchasing advanced variants in significant
numbers through the 1980s. The units operating MiG-23s were soon
transformed into the backbone of the military services in question, and
they saw combat service in a number of intensive military conflicts. In
the 1980s, they fought against Israeli jets over Lebanon, against the
Iranians in the Iran-Iraq War, and confronted US Navy’s F-14s on
numerous occasions off Libya. In 1991 Iraqi MiG-23s were deployed in
combat against the US-led coalition’s F-15s. Indeed, in Syria, different
versions of MiG-23 continue flying combat operations today.
Illustrated
with over 110 photographs – many of these never published before –color
profiles and a dozen maps, this volume provides a unique point of
reference, revealing much detail about camouflage patterns, unit
insignia and aircraft markings.
