Some fictional history:
In 1950, Mozkubi planned to make a new version of the M-23 with turboprop engines designated M-23H, at first it was a four-engine, but later the plane of the M-23H was redesigned and changed to a twin-engine as the new turboprop engines were powerful enough.
The M-23 already had a tail turret in 1947 with the M-23E version. In the Korean War Mozkubi planned for the M-23H with turboprop engines to combat in the war, but because it was still in development, the piston-engined M-23G was the one that entered the war.

The bomber it's armed with:
- Twelve 500 kg bombs

    @AverageBreakingBadMeme If my M-23B-10 took me about 3-4 days to finish (I think it is nothing compared to the creations of other users but for now it’s a lot for me 🙂) , a bomber that will be bigger, I think it will take me a few weeks to finish it. (But I do plan to make one.)
