The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23 ( NATO reporting name: Flogger) is a variable-geometry fighter aircraft, designed by the Mikoyan-Gurevich design bureau in the Soviet Union. It is a third-generation jet fighter, alongside similar Soviet aircraft such as the Su-17 "Fitter". It was the first Soviet fighter to field a look-down/shoot-down radar, the RP-23 Sapfir, and one of the first to be armed with beyond-visual-range missiles. Production started in 1969 and reached large numbers with over 5,000 aircraft built, making it the most produced variable-sweep wing aircraft in history. The MiG-23 remains in limited service with some export customers.
The basic design was also used as the basis for the Mikoyan MiG-27, a dedicated ground-attack variant. Among many minor changes, the MiG-27 replaced the MiG-23's nose-mounted radar system with an optical panel holding a laser designator and a TV camera.

@IQinventory The two aircraft from different countries suddenly collaborated with simple the Mirage F-1 and Mig-23 MLD Flogger-G, making Iranian F-14 Tomcat users overwhelmed, not to mention that Iranian F-4 Phantoms and F-5s were also shot down by this aircraft.
@TheRepublicofAmnesia thanks
@ReynaldoHeavyIndustries correct and mirage f1 also shot one down
