For this week's Mega I will be sharing one of my all time favorite fighter planes: the MiG-23. This was the last single engine fighter of the USSR I believe. I will add some information about it each day.
Day 1: Origins
The MiG-23 had the unenviable task of replacing the MiG-21. The MiG-21 was fast, maneuverable, it the most produced supersonic fighter jet of all time, and had an impressive service record with the Vietnam People's Air Force (VPAF) against the US air force. However it would need to be replaced eventually. It was a fairly small and short range fighter, and the nose intake limited the size of the radar that could be installed. It soon became clear that a new design would be needed to effectively take advantage of the new technology and manufacturing capabilities that the USSR had developed.
The MiG-23 was designed from the beginning to carry brand new technologies, even some that would not be available when the initial variants of the MiG-23 were produced. It would ultimately carry a larger and more power radar with look-down shoot-down capabilities, along with the first medium range air to air radar guided missile of the USSR: the Vympel R-23. It also featured a swing wing, allowing it to change the wing geometry in flight to suit supersonic speed and acceleration with the wings folded back, or low speed maneuverability and take off and landing performing with the wings all the way forward, or anywhere in between. A high degree of automation for the time allowed the pilot to focus on combat. One of the coolest features in my opinion though was the integration of an IR search and track system (IRST) which would allow the pilot to find and lock onto airplanes without ever turning on the radar, preventing the enemy from detecting that they're being targeted. The MiG-23 could even launch missiles from beyond visual range (barely) without ever turning its radar on, or only briefly to verify that the plane it was locking was an enemy, using the combination of the IRST and the IR guided variant of the R-23: the R-23T.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

I met up at a bar last night with my new gf and friends (we both were at work and went separately). While we were all chatting and fiercely making out with each other, we noticed a lonely transfem sitting, looking sad and called to her to come over. She sat next to me, I asked if she needed a hug, and she proceeded to attach herself to me for the next hour-plus while my gf held her hand and whispered sweetly to her. We never found out what was going on with her, she just held onto me for dear life quietly. When our group finally decided to leave, we got her discord info so we could keep in touch, though.Earlier, during the makeout, my gf's friend asked if she could come by afterwards to give her a massage and, of course, we said yes. Long story short, the massage was a thinly veiled ruse and we just ended up fucking (shocking, I know). I've only known my gf for a little over a month now but quickly learned it's not easy to get her to cum. However, after taking turns giving her head for a while, she started the telltale convulsing, squeezing my head onto her dick with her thighs. I felt her dick start twitching and pulsing as her whole body shook and I just kept going. I think she had 3 or 4 orgasms in quick succession before I let her off the hook. When I let up, she was shaking and quivering all over, fully nonverbal for several minutes while me and her friend cuddled her and told her how good she was. After she calmed down and was able to speak again, we turned off the lights and slept with gf in the middle being held by the two of us. In summary:

fully nonverbal? damn, that's so coolspoiler
T4T rules. I have had a quiet week but next week I have some truly wild stuff planned.spoiler
ofc it was
from my experience there is actually a 50/50 chance that the thinly veiled ruse was set up to get unsuspecting transfems to play some obscure boardgame that takes 12 hours on average and requires a degree in engineering, ancient languages or city planning to parse

My girlfriend was invited to have dinner, watch a sad movie and hangout with two girls we've already had sex with. She was like "I think nothing is going to happen" and I was like "Oh something is definitely going to happen, have fun!"I would both set and fall for the second trap
