Photo Comment

Moments before towed away from the flightline, this MiG-23BN was delivered to the NVA in January 1980 and assigned to Jagdbombergeschwader 37. It was moved to the Luftwaffe as 20+43 on 3 October 1990. The Luftwaffe serial was never used and the FLOGGER was withdrawn from use in February 1991 at Drewitz. The MiG was transferred to Rothenburg museum, still as 695 in March 1995. In 1997 it was moved to Pendine (UK), and then dumped at Stock (UK). It was last seen heavily damaged without cockpit section.
