A competition for a COIN aircraft similar to the American OV-10 Bronco was initiated in 1980 to meet the demands of the war in Afghanistan. The Mikoyan proposal designated izdelye 101 won against designs from Sukhoi and Ilyushin. Interest in the COIN aircraft later faded, however, and the 101 was transformed into the 101N, 101NP, and 101N.
