Rob Colvin Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Is there a website out there with good color pics of in service Russian Mig 23 MF floggers? While I am at it.......does the MR Color Line of paints represent the Russian colors? Thanks Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Colvin Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 When the 23mf was in service.......all I seem to find are mostly museum birds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Airfixer Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) Mr Paint offers a wide range of Soviet/Russian colours. Predominantly WW2 and contemporary colours, though: http://mrpaint.sk/farby/lietadla/USSR Pictures: It's a bit tricky. It seems that the best photographs of in-service Soviet MiG-23M [sic] are buried deep inside unit-related threads on Russian/Ukrainian aviation fora - airbase.ru, aviaforum.ru, airwar.ru, scalemodels.ru et al. Google ("MiG-23M, VVS, FA, PVO, Soviet Air Force") will only retrieve rather unsatisfactory results. Maybe you'd like to try this one: yandex.ru ("Russian Google") Keywords: "МиГ-23М", "МиГ-23М ВВС ПВО" https://yandex.ru/images/search?text=%D0%BC%D0%B8%D0%B3-23%D0%BC https://yandex.ru/images/search?text=%D0%BC%D0%B8%D0%B3-23%D0%BC%20%D1%84%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%BE HTH Erik Edited February 23, 2018 by Airfixer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnarg Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 The 23 is an amazingly beautiful aircraft, and it just screams power from a 1980's perspective. Thanks for the pictures. Too bad my head will not let me do red stars on airplanes.... it wants to explode every time I try to do that. Too many Cold War fears as a young kid, I guess.
