For example, swift fighter managed time (7)
I believe the answer is:
migrant
'for example swift' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'fighter managed time' is the wordplay.
'fighter' becomes 'mig' (fighter jet produced by Russian company MiG).
'managed' becomes 'ran' (I've seen this in another clue).
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'mig'+'ran'+'t'='MIGRANT'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for migrant that I've seen before include "One travelling to find work" , "Animal moving with the seasons" , "Person who has moved residence to another place" , "Traveller" , "Person moving abroad" .)
