The MiG-23 Flogger is a Soviet supersonic fighter jet produced since the late 1960s. It entered service in 1970 and was widely used by the Soviet Union and other Warsaw Pact countries during the Cold War. It was also deployed in military operations in Afghanistan and the Middle East. The MiG-23 was one of the first mass-produced fighters equipped with variable-geometry wings.

Aires 4598 focuses on the precise recreation of the closed exhaust nozzle – a component that is often simplified in plastic kits.

Thanks to this component, the final result will be significantly more realistic, which is especially noticeable when displaying models at exhibitions or in a showcase.
