It's not the MiG-23, but it sounds awesome.

I should be able to add this to the red inventory for my 1975 YK2 event. 

When I was in the AF I was intercepted by two Floggers North of Norway. Was warned by Scottish Mil and they did a quick overhead pass to check out my WC-135B.

@grok: what year was the MiG-23M Flogger deployed?

1973 (with production starting in 1972).

The MiG-23M (NATO reporting name Flogger-B) was the first major production fighter variant of the MiG-23 series. It first flew in June 1972, with series production running from 1972 to 1978 (roughly 1,300 built).

It began entering service with Soviet units (initially a training/evaluation unit, then frontline Frontal Aviation and some PVO regiments) in 1973. The broader MiG-23 family had an official introduction around 1970 with earlier limited variants like the MiG-23S, but the M was the definitive first-generation version with improved radar (Sapfir-23D), engine, and other systems.

So it'll be a while.

If you travel at near light speed it might actually seem to be available in Two Weeks "relative" time.
