I have posted about this before but I am too busy to find the link, but below are the details that I posted:

“According to the latest Newark Air Museum Guide Book the MiGs they have on loan from Hawarden Air Services are as follows:

Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23ML “Flogger” – 024003607 “07”

Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-27K “Flogger” – 61912507006 “71”

But it may be that the MiG-23, ’07’ is an early M type not an ML; also the MiG-27, ’71’ might not be a K variant as this had a different and more sophisticated Laser Rangefinder in the nose.

Both are listed as having been delivered from Hawarden, Clwyd on May 22nd 2002.

Both aircraft are in the aircraft list on the museum website”
