  1. In 1984-1985, 66 pieces of MiG-23MLD (23-22A/23-22B) were produced for the Bulgarian and Libyan Air Forces -Another (Factory) name MiG-23MLAE-2)…

Speaking of the MiG-23MLD, there is a theoretical possibility to install an older canopy without a central pylon, as was the case with the some export MiG-23ML?

Namely, the central pylon restricts the view in the simulator quite a bit, and it would be nice to be able to change the type of canopy. I think the older canopy had problems at high speeds so in theory installing the older canopy would lower the top speed.

No Russian MLD’s had the removed cockpit bar that I am aware of.

It’s a pity.

I previously made a suggestion but it seems each time I make suggestions that await approval on the new forum they are simply deleted instead of accepted. On the old forum the suggestion was also denied outright which is highly unusual. Not sure if forum moderators had any ill intentions there.

MiG-23MLD(23-18)-late since 1984…

What is the switch for?

This looks like radar screen:

this modification is just putting a MiG-23BN canopy over another MiG-23 canopy, it results in top speed being restricted to mach 1.75. This was only done in middle eastern airforces.

But it was technically possible also give it on MLD, wasnt it?

it could fit in any MiG-23 canopy it just wasnt done because IRL the crossbar was generally not seen to be as big of a problem since you can move your head side to side to look around it.

That is true, but in the case of WT it is not possible unless the player uses VR.

I recommend this keybind then, allows you to shift your head from left to right, I used to use it before I got Track IR

Oh, I thought it was just me. I’ve made 2 suggestions here and both have seemingly disappeared. (F-15C which was missing from their previously suggested vehicles thread and the L3Harris Vampire)

Hmmmm. Thanks you very much.

Yeah… I think they’re just deleting stuff to be quite honest.

The weird part with the F-15C one is that I contacted a suggestion mod prior to clarify that they didn’t have it previously suggested. Now the post isn’t even in the pending tab so i’ve got no way to retrieve and repost it.

I play SIM in VR got my VR 1.5 month ago, if you want me to send screenshots or videos of something from angles only possible in VR i can send it, didn’t read all the posts so i dont know what it is about but i’d be glad to help

1.Manual/Automatic…Front hemisphere/Rear hemisphere…For Radar- for which radar modes-I don’t know for sure …
2.We also added SOS control (The roll is set to 45 degrees/The roll is set to 70 degrees)…
