Thanks this is very useful. Perhaps, I can repaint a Mig-21 cockpit, get rid of the pitot tube sticking out front and Starfighter can make a HUD...if indeed the early Mig-23s had much of one.

Hey Ordway, thanks for the cockpit, and i'm just wondering, this cockpit can be used in more than one variant, can you tell me if it can be used in the P model or the MLD perhaps?

Sure you can use it, but would be cool to know the differences?

Looks like the Mig-23P had a radar scope:

 

 

"Around 500 aircraft were manufactured between 1978-81. The MiG-23P was never exported and served only within the PVO in Soviet service.

 

MiG-23bis. Similar to the MiG-23P except the IRST was restored and the cumbersome radar scope was eliminated because all of the information it provided could be displayed on the new head-up display (HUD). "

Wiki can be wrong, too however.

 

I am trying to work with Starfighter 2 on an earlier cockpit (Mig-23P)with a radar scope and his superb HUD.
