No canards. The still image captures the MiG-23 with a floodlite pole in the foreground. It gives the impression of canards/foreplanes. The ejection was unsuccessful

I figured that out after what I believed originally while I watched the aircraft drop to just about where your pic shows it....notice the cross beams at the pole in front of it. Well in the video as you may have noticed....the plane was rotating a bit along it’s x axis..... it looked like a forward conard wing. I was wrong. Thanks.
