Hello and good morning,

DOWNLOAD

of

newest version of the AI MiG-23 replacement:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/trqpute3b9ibgd9/TOMsMiG23-MOD_V2.0.rar/file

Before you overwrite or replace a file, please create a backup copy first.

This mod replaces the AI model for the MiG-23 and features the MLD and MF variants. It comes with skins for the Soviet, Syrian, Polish and East German air forces. In the early '70s, it was the state-of-the-art fighter designed to counter American and European fighters such as the F-4 Phantom or the F-104 Starfighter. 
The MiG-23 was never designed as a "dogfighter", but rather as a ground-controlled interceptor. To this end, the MiG carried R-24 missiles, which were infrared and radar guided. The tactic was to fly the MiG behind an enemy aircraft without using the radar. Once in position, the command was given to activate the sensors and fire the primary missiles in a single attack before escaping at high speed.

 
However, despite the sound design, the MiG-23 was too expensive and complex, meaning the older MiG-21 is still in service. In the '80s, with the emergence of more modern jets such as the Tomcat, Eagle and Falcon, the MiG-23 was no longer competitive, but could still pose a threat if used within its limits and tactics.

For the mod:
To switch between variants, please change the board number in the DCS editor: below 5 (0–4) for the MF variant and above 5 (5–9) for the MLD variant.

 

Cheers

TOM
