Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The airspeed indicator was redlined at Mach 2.8, and pilots were required not to exceed Mach 2.5. Pilots were forbidden to engage the radar on the ground, and legend held that it was powerful enough to kill rabbits near runways. www.wikipedia.org /wiki/Mikoyan-Gurevich_MiG-25   (1320 words)

MiG На самолете выполнено 25 полетов, в основном по программе доводки силовой установки и обеспечению устойчивой работы Р-21Ф-300. The aircraft is used by at least 25 countries (Soviet-built or Chinese J-5 fighters, JJ-5 trainers). Indeed it was MiG-17's guns that turned down 'missile only' fighters development in both USSR and USA (see a letter from Dave Sutton, private MiG owner). www.aviation.ru /MiG   (3970 words)

[1.0] MiG-25 Foxbat One MiG-25PD was modified with a 25 centimeter (10 inch) nose plug to accommodate a retractable inflight refueling probe, and was also fitted with additional navigation gear to help it find a tanker. In operational service, the MiG-25P did not come close to meeting its range specification and could not be flown at Mach 3+ for any length of time. Another MiG-25 was shot down by F-16s on 25 December 1992 as a Christmas present to Saddam Hussein. www.vectorsite.net /avmig25_1.html   (5546 words)

MiGs of the Luftwaffe Adding the MiGs was also a bit of a sop to the East Germans, a gesture to show that despite all evidence to the contrary, the Federal Republic of Germany had not simply swallowed the German Democratic Republic and spit out the remains. The MiGs have brought promise of some 300 jobs to this region still reeling from the closing of shipyards that were unable to compete after reunification. Western pilots are also less than thrilled with the MiG's cockpit set-up, which they say is not ergonomically well designed, and they complain that the throttle lacks thumb controls, which lessens a pilot's option for turning his head from the control panel. www.airspacemag.com /ASM/Mag/Index/1995/JJ/motl.html   (3883 words)

Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25 In an intelligence coup for the west on September 6th 1976 a MiG 25 Foxbat of the Air Defense Command flown by Lt. Viktor Belenko landed at Hakodate airport Japan. Americans had witnessed a MiG 25 flying Mach 3.2 over Israel in 1973 a flight that had resulted in total destruction of its engines.

The MiG-25 that was clocked at Mach 3.2 by the Israelis achieved this speed while running from an intercepting F-4 (which can barely manage Mach 2 on a good day--before running out of fuel). aeroweb.lucia.it /~agretch/RAFAQ/MiG-25.html   (3381 words)

MiG-25 Foxbat Another MiG-25 fired 3 missiles at EF-111 electronics warfare aircraft over Iraq forcing them to abort their mission.

MiG Alley -- MiG-31 The MiG's arsenal is not spectacular in proportion to its contemporaries, yet it is equivalent. Also standard to MiGs are radar warning receivers and several antennae, capable of pursuing signals via VHF, the IFF system, and information drawn in through its vanes and yaws. Attached to its pylons are the AA-8 Aphid K-60 and AA-9 R-33 air-to-air missiles, the latter known to the North American Treaty Organization as the "Amos". www.hostultra.com /~migalley/mig31.html   (882 words)

MIKOJAN-GUREWITSCH MIG-31 Die Höchstgeschwindigkeit beträgt wie bei der MiG 25 Mach 2.83 in großer Höhe. Die MiG-25, die als Vorgängerversion der MiG-31 galt, war zu ineffizient da sie mit Hilfe der Leitstation am Boden immer in Kontakt sein musste.

4 slain youths were tortured, police say - Sept. 25, 2003 He said the suspicion that the MIG was behind the abduction and deaths of the four victims was boosted by the identification of Javier. But Lieutenant Colonel Agane Adriatico, chief of the military's 5th Civil Relations Group for Southeastern Mindanao, denied the role of MIG elements in the incident, saying there was no reason for them to do such thing. Adriatico said he has already talked with MIG commander, Major Allen Capuyan, who downplayed Karapatan's allegations as an effort to discredit the military. www.inq7.net /reg/2003/sep/25/reg_1-1.htm   (559 words)

Cool pics of the MiG-25 found hidden in Iraq - Musician Forums And the MiG 25 is not necessarily dangerous for a fighter like the F-15 because it wasn't designed for that purpose. MiG-25 is an interceptor, not a bomber or attack aircraft. The MiG is capable of flying at speeds of over 2,000 miles an hour, or three times the speed of sound, and at altitudes of over 75,000 feet. www.musicianforums.com /forums/showthread.php?t=229287   (2436 words)

MILAVIA - Aircraft - Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25 Foxbat Some say the posed threat of the XB-70 was the main (and only) reason for the MiG-25 design, but MiG OKB revealed recentlythat the mean reason was to counter the A-12/YF-12 program. The MiG-25 was designed in 1962 to intercept high altitude, high speed aircraft such as the F-108 Rapier program, the Mach 3 capable XB-70 Valkyrie and more important the A-12 which resulted in the SR-71 spy plane. Anyway, when the XB-70 Valkyrie development stopped, the development of the MiG-25 continued. www.milavia.net /aircraft/mig-25/mig-25_his.htm   (247 words)

Aerospace Industry Discussion You can say that MIG can only fly fast for a short period of time before it run out of fuel, BUT the same is for F-15/14, MIG-25/31 both has much internal fuel to empty mass ratio than F-14. But if 3WW did occur in the eighties, can't you see the MiG 25's, 31's, and all other planes chasing the B-52's, and B-1's, as well as cruise missles and other fighters. Of course thenit would be bombed, so the MiG's cannot run away as it is not how air superiority is achieved. www.aeroworldnet.com /aid/messages/25/181.html?SundayFebruary2119991124pm   (2537 words)

FLIGHT TEST REPORT - MiG-25UP Strap in to the MiG was straightforward as the harness is integrated with the seat. Cockpit controls for the system were mounted in a 2.5 in (h) x 10 in (w) panel mounted atop the glare shield, partially obscuring forward visibility. This was in contrast to the minimal brief for the previous day's flying and was probably driven by the near emergency Lt Col Aldrich experienced in the SU-17 high speed abort. www.eaa1000.av.org /fltrpts/mig25/mig25.htm   (1695 words)

MIG-25 Foxbat The new MIG was first seen by the west in 1967 (called Foxbat-A by Nato). By the time the US bomber was cancelled the Russians were loath to cancel the project and thought that a fast interceptor would always be useful and could be used as a reconnaissance platform as well. The new impressive aircraft caused the Americans to start developing a fighter of their own to counter it and this would become the F-15 Eagle which although slower is a much more modern aircraft. www.rickard.karoo.net /articles/weapons_mig25.html   (251 words)

MIG-25 Il tenente dichiarò che la velocità massima di un MiG-25 con il carico massimo era di 2.8 Mach, mentre in ricognizione disarmato poteva arrivare fino a +3 Mach, ma che comunque era difficile passare 2.6 Mach; disse che i piloti di MiG-25 non dovevano oltrepassare i 2.5 Mach se non autorizzati. Note di servizio: il MiG-25 fu costruito come risposta al A-12 (secondo rivelazioni della MiG dopo la fine della guerra fredda) e non in risposta al progetto del bombardiere strategico supersonico XB-70 Valkyrie (questo progetto fu abbandonato, ma poi, ripreso, portò allo sviluppo del B-1B Lancer). Nel 1976 il tenente sovietico Victor Belenko disertò con il suo MiG-25 e questo fatto permise agli USA di studiare il velivolo prima di restituirlo, ponendo fine ad un mistero che preoccupava in Occidente. www.24pm-affiliation.com /encyclopedia/M/MiG-25   (599 words)

MiG-25 Foxbat - Russian Aircraft Museum - Bearcraft-onLine.com The MiG contruction bureau received its name from the first letter(s) of the family names of its two chief engineers: Artjom Mikojan and Michail Gurjevitch. The Sukhoi construction bureau is the second main supplier for jet fighters in Russia besides MiG. It was formed by Pavel Sukhoi (born 1895, died September 15, 1975) and became well known when it developed several aircraft with astonishing aerodynamical performances in the last years of the USSR. www.bearcraft-online.com /museum/museum.htm?mid=52   (938 words)

Mig-25 vs SR-71 - Above Top Secret Conspiracy Community While the theory of a Mig 25 intercepting an SR-71 makes sense, when you plug all of the variables in, the odds favor the SR-71 very strongly. Once the mig is at Mach 3 the distance would remain fixed, because two objects moving at the same speed and in the same direction will remain equally spaced. The Mig is a killer piece of hardware like its cousin the Mig-31, but the Blackbird could cruise at those speeds for hours. www.abovetopsecret.com /forum/thread89537/pg1   (2133 words)

Fighter Aicraft, Su-37 But given miracles in budgets and economics despite the deep seated problems outlined in the RAND report, new modern MiG and Sukhoi fighters, even at those reduced numbers, could return the stature of the Russian Air Force to where it was. The actual integration techniques and projected use of the variable flat nozzle were never discussed but they are considered to be for the advanced design "T-60S" Project, a competitor for the MiG 1.42, or for a new SST or medium sized business jet. By the year 2000 they will be lucky to field 1,500 aircraft, however, the nature of the country has changed and the majority of older less sophisticated aircraft have transitioned to simple liability holdings years ago. www.sci.fi /~fta/Su-27.htm   (9485 words)
