[C10] Mikoyan-27 Flogger D 1/72
Description
The Mikoyan MiG-27 Flogger D is a fighter/attack aircraft that developed the ground attack capabilities of the Soviet Air Force's variable-sweep wing fighter, the MiG-23. While it shares the same variable-sweep wings and tail as the MiG-23, the radar fire control system was removed, resulting in a flattened nose and a bulletproof cockpit. Seven additional pylons were also added to increase the amount of external armament.
