The MiG-27 shares the basic airframe of the MiG-23, but with the revised nose (referred to as Utkonos, platypus, in Russian service) introduced on the MiG-23B that deletes radar in favor of a downward-sloping profile that improves pilot visibility and contains a laser rangefinder and marked-target seeker. Additional cockpit armor is installed, along with a totally new nav-attack system. Because the MiG-27 is intended to fly most of its missions at low altitude, the fighters variable intake ramps and exhaust nozzles were deleted in favor of a simpler, fixed configuration, reducing weight and maintenance requirement. The aircraft also has larger, heavy-duty landing gear to facilitate operation from poorer airfields..
The initial MiG-27 was known as Flogger-D to NATO. It was subsequently replaced by the upgraded MiG-27D (Flogger-J). A later MiG-27M model shared the Flogger-D code, being based on the earlier MiG-23BK, but was actually an upgrade, incorporating a new 30mm GSh-6-30 six-barrel cannon with 260 rounds of ammunition in a fuselage gondola, much improved ECM systems, and a new PrNK-23K nav/attack system providing automatic flight control, gun firing, and weapons release. However this modification was not very successful, because the new cannon had a very big recoil and bursts longer than two or three seconds often led to permanent damage on the plane..
Test pilot – V.N.Kondaurov described the first shooting from GSh-6-30Ð so: As I, imposed the central mark on the air target and pressed the trigger to shoot, I heard such noise, that I have involuntarily drawn my hand aside . From shooting the whole plane begun to vibrate and has almost stopped from strong recoil of the gun. The pilotless target which was just making a turn ahead of me , was literally disintegrating into pieces. I have hardly come to the senses from unexpectedness and admiration: This is a calibre! Such a beast! If you hit somethingeuro; scaron; scaron; scaron; it will be not little..
The final Soviet version was the MiG-27K, which added a laser designator and compatibility with TV-guided electro-optical weapons. It was designated Flogger-J2 by NATO..
