We spent piles of loot making Iraq free, and I think we should have those aircraft available for OpFor exercises at Fallon, or down at Las Vegas, or something.

We could have our guys learn a lot of stuff —MANY nations still fly that old crap.

MiG21s are not a bad bird. Sorta like a really nice 1975 Olds 442 of the air. It's had a longer production run than anything except the VW, and in good hands, is still fairly capable.

The MiG 23 is an OK fighter.little bit of bomber, and is only a decade or so behind the times.
