Description MiG-23S was a swing-wing jet fighter by the Mikoyan-Gurevich bureau in the Soviet Union.
Type S was the early production version that has a slender wing without sawtooth. I like its smart style.

Thank for comment!
I don't know whether MiG-23 took part in the Vietnam War, but typeS was applied mainly to test.
Yeah, I will try to P-51 someday!

Well...looks like a combination of Saab Viggen, F-14 (wings) and Mig-21 (tail)

Waiting for P-51!

Intereasting indeed, wasn't it also used by the NVA during the Vietnam War?

not.. they used MiG-17, MiG-19 (only a little), MiG-21 and pilots favoured the MiG-17
