HC Deb 19 February 1976 vol 905 c802W
Mr. Maurice

Macmillan asked the Secretary of State for Defence how many MIG 23 Flogger aircraft were deployed in East Germany in (i) February 1975, (ii) June 1975, (ii) January 1976, and (iv) February 1976.

Mr. John

We estimate that in February 1975 at least 30 of these aircraft were deployed in East Germany and that this number had more than doubled by June of the same year. The number is estimated to have risen since then to about 140.
