The missile was introduced into service in 1974 and was widely used on various versions of the MiG-23 fighter, which formed the backbone of Soviet aviation during the Cold War. The R-23R missiles utilized a semi-active radar homing head, allowing for precise engagement of aerial targets in all weather conditions. They were used, among others, in Middle Eastern conflicts, during the Soviet-Afghan War, and were exported to Warsaw Pact countries and other Soviet allies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel scale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of origin (original):\u003c\/strong\u003e Soviet Union\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eService period:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cold War, 1974-1990+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-quality resin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet includes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 R-23R missiles with mounting details\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resin model, upgrade set for 1\/48 scale aircraft models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose RESKIT RS48-0161?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe precisely cast R-23R missile set from RES\/KIT is a perfect addition for any modeller building MiG-23 fighter jets or other Soviet combat aircraft from the Cold War period.
