Scratch one Iranian SU-24

I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

reminds me of the FEDEX crash in Japan with the porpoising, once I saw that I knew it was going to be bad.

USCG,
Recheck your Soviet designs, yes the SU-24 Fencer is a swing-wing bomber, very much like the F-111 the US used.
The Mig-23 and little brother Mig-27 are single seat. Maybe you were thinking of the SU-25 Frogfoot?
