It's a joke? You might as well post a picture of an actual MIG 23 toned down!

It's the stealth variant...

Looks like they gave a midget the job of painting those numbers.

Thank you.

It's always good to see more development progress pics.

Look forward to eventually see the complete product !

Would you rather they rush it?

For the years it has been in development, we can no longer call it a rush, but perhaps crawling to the finish line.

[Kaktus]

by the time this gets out i'll be retired with eyesight so bad it won't matter much the graphics.. lol..hopefully my grandkids will be able to fly it in 2040..

I think its because its mainly being worked on by only one or few people... From what i understood most of the RAZBAM team was working on F-15E. 

So lets hope resources shifted to build and finalize this beauty at this moment, only RAZBAM can tell though.

Yes, the F-15E is out, Flogger graphics are on schedule and only now the flight model programmers at Razbam can concentrate on the three (at the very minimum) different flight models required for the MiG-23 and mixing their equations while the wings are sweeping back or forth. Very exciting.  

[WarbossPetross]

It's just standing there... menacingly!

Apparently its confirmed that Galinette (radar wizzard guy that did a fantastic job on the F15E radar) will be doing at least some systems coding on the 23, so the radar and possibly IRST should be done really well (IRST probably will have major issues unless ED actually adds clouds to the game IMO).
