In the early 1960s,. OKB A.I. Mikoyan began to show interest in the aircraft with variable geometry wings, who possessed a distinct advantage. In the view of the military, when a full-scale war, large airports with concrete runways will be too vulnerable and therefore need planes, capable to be operated with truncated runway. This can be achieved in two ways was: through the use of hoisting or engines using variable-geometry wing.

Future aircraft was intended to combine the best qualities of the MiG-21, and gave him a pre-code "MiG-23". The main advantages were to be high speed and rate of climb, long distance and flight duration. Testing the aerodynamics of the future fighter was conducted in wind tunnels. Complete Series models has been created, tested at different flight modes: takeoff, landing, at transonic and supersonic speeds.
AT 1964 g. OKB A.I. Mikoyan started the engineering design of two variants of the MiG-23. Fighter with two lift engines - "23-01" and the machine with variable geometry wing - "23-11". The first flight of "23-01" made 3 April 1967 g. (Test Pilot rm. Ostapenko). After the cessation of the development of "23-01" aircraft with short takeoff and landing priority acquires the program "23-11" with variable sweep wing, the implementation of which was accelerated by the order of the MAP. MKB «Rodina» (Chief Designer Selivanov) instructed to create rotation mechanism wing. Design "23-11" fighter was carried out rapidly. In a very short period of time, from January to March 1966 city, preliminary design was created by the MiG-23. Before final selection of "23-01" schemes and "23-11" has been specially designed jet engine Turbojet R-27F-300 (By EDO. R. Khachaturova) in various R & Lights 11F2S-300. A decisive role in the final design of these systems has played a chief pilot EDO AV. Fedotov.

10 June 1967 g. A test pilot. AT. Fedotov made its first flight, wherein the wing sweep was at position 16 °. The second wing flight he checked in full from 16 ° to 72 ° range of change of sweep angle. The third flight Fedotov passed the speed of sound. The aircraft was shown at the air parade in Domodedovo. for AV. Fedotov it was the 13th flight. A total of nine cars were involved in the test program.

Series production of the MiG-23 began at the Moscow factory "Banner of Labor". Total MiG-23 of all versions were built 5047. The emergence has brought disappointment in parts of these aircraft. Due to the insufficient strength of the airframe were introduced at overload restriction. Training air fights between MiG-21 and MiG-23 unambiguously proven advantage of the first. MiG-23 well were exported and used in almost all international conflicts. Vehicle with № 231 It is in the Air Force Museum in Monino.
