Mikoyan-Gurevich MIG-23-98-1

I’d say the performance difference is very difficult to calculate without getting the exact specifications of each jet.

The engine on the MS was slightly newer, although I am not sure if it had better performance.

I’d say they are plus minus equal.

Yeah ok

Worse engine, older type of wings without reinforcement so it can pull less G with differenet aerodynamic elements and angles, conical radome instead of ogival and many more. Its pretty significant difference. You can check Ruslet for all differences which was made.

+1. I would love to see this in the tech tree at 13.0. It would be similar to the f-4 ice and av-8 which is why I think it should be 13.0

I wonder if it had the same RWR-- that being the SPO-15, or if it was upgraded to the SPO-15T or L-150.

Would like to see it at 13.0 regardless in the tech tree! Preferably after a “late” MiG-23MLD with R-24Ms (upgraded R-24Rs) and R-73s. Would be a good 12.3 or so jet as well :D

Tornado F.3 Late with 4 AIM-120Bs at 13.0 as well.
He doesn’t know what he’s talking about and should be ignored.
