Thank you! That was certainly one of the key events of the Cold War. Not just in aviation.

Turned out after Tovarich Belenko defected with his aircraft the West learned a lot about the MiG-25: It was a piece of junk with a never-exceed speed of Mach 2.83; any faster and you'd overspeed and overheat the engines, reducing them to scrap. The U.S. thought the large wing made it super-agile: Belenko told them the 25 weighed an apatosaurian 32 tons, necessitating the large wing. Turned out the 25 had a turning radius of literally a country mile. The plane was also quite literally made of stainless steel to withstand the heat of travelling at the speeds it did, had retractable landing lights, and used vacuum tubes for its systems as they tolerated the heat better, as opposed to microchips. It sacrificed a huge amount to even approach Mach 3. And yes, the F-15 was developed to counter it.

The funny thing about the MIG-25. The Soviets built it in response to our plans to built the Mach 3 bomber, the B-70. But the US canceled the B-70 when it was determined it would not be able to overcome the improved Soviet radar and air to ground missiles. The Soviets had built the MIG-25 not as a fighter, which the West didn't know, but as an interceptor, with a very powerful radar that could not be jammed. So obviously the Soviets had less faith in their ground-based radar and ground to air missiles than the West did. When the US canceled the B-70, the Soviets were already committed to the production of the MIG-25, so they went ahead with it. It was their going ahead with the program that convinced the West that the MIG-25 was an actual fighter and not just an interceptor. Thanks to that defecting Soviet pilot, the US got its hands on a MIG-25 and discovered... 1. It used a combination of steel and aluminum. Steel was used in heat critical areas. Soviets were not ready to move forward with titanium aircraft. 2. It used vacuum tubes in its radar assemblies, not computer chips, not even transistors. The idea was the vacuum tubes were impervious to jamming. Pilots and maintenance personnel were instructed not to turn the on the radar, on the ground without miles of open land in front. Otherwise you could "hurt" someone badly. Read Cancer. 3. The aircraft did not have the structural integrity to be a fighter. Even a 2g turn could damage the airframe. 4. The engines were from drones. Yes, they could do Mach 3, but at the cost of burning them out at any speed over 2.7. The Soviets were fine with this, provided it could bring down its target. The West knew that a Syrian reconnaissance version had burnt out its engines over Israel, but did not know this was the usual outcome of Mach 3 flight.

The soviets were going bonkers wanting their plane back. The Japanese and USA stalled them for three days. During this time they examined the plane closely. At the end of the three days they gave the soviets their plane back in crates. They had taken the whole plane apart.

Read of this an immense long time now. Repeated here what you said when Syria's 21 and 23 downed in one F15 mission. "Migs no match for..." *SYRIA DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO USE ITS WEAPONS.* Israeli cadets graduate with a lot of TRAINING. Primarily DOGFIGHTING. A FLOGGER in a horizontal turn with the EAGLE goes vertical and with a turn, cut inside its turn - 6 0'clock position. The FOXBAT isn't agile and i feel a mistake developing it - a cancelled XB 70 only left a few supersonic reece jets. Too many compromises. Tactic - Bring its blistering speed to bear, launch missiles - accelerate supersonic away, no dogfight. Pilots are are taught DF nevertheless. I'm proven right cause the FB used the same to evade F15s during and after the Gulf war. In that war in the FB scored damage to the eagle in the Samurra Air Battle. Its how weapons are employed - the weapon is merely extension of the man.

MIG-25 was a serious achievement, high-speed and altitude, but its role was only 1; Interceptor-Role. It's real job and only job was to shoot down the SR-71 Recce aircraft. That is the ONLY reason this aircraft with its massive engines, was designed to do...nothing more. Soviet Union was manic about this Recce aircraft, its ability to perform and avoid their defenses, the Blackbird gave them nightmares. In fact, at one particular mission, it tried to compete with SR-71 but could not, MIG-25 would burn out its own engines in the attempt, it was not durable in metallurgy and SR-71 would simply outrun it; it had plenty of space on the throttle and simply pulled away from the MIG. The Russians tried repeatedly to just get ahead of it and throw its missiles far in advance of the flight and pray it would catch one. Never did on its own. There were a few documented occasions when the SR-71 experienced engine trouble and it terminated the mission, and on one occasion, the Swedish Air Force REACTED and protected the Blackbird on its return.

Well, there was plenty of dogfighting in Vietnam as well. Not necessarily with guns but missiles from that era were quite limited and you had to place your aircraft in a good position to achieve hits.

Why launch two Fox-1s? It is my understanding that the first missile goes stupid and stops tracking as soon as the second is launched. So launching a second missile right after the first just wastes a missile as only the second missile would then be tracking. That is the primary advantage of active homing Fox-3s over semi-active Fox-1s. The Fox-3s have their own radar, and thus more than one can be launched to track one or multiple targets at the same time, whereas the Fox-1s rely on the plane's radar for guidance and only one can be tracking at any given time. Am I wrong in this?

However, plenty of people replied to my video and the best conclusion in my opinion is that only F-14 can't guide multiple Sparrows. It has something to do with the way AWG-9 works, it changes frequency after each launch. But other platforms such as F-4, F-15 and F/A-18 CAN guide multiple Sparrows (as plenty of historical examples prove). Their radar's don't change frequency of guidance and the first Sparrow has no idea that other Sparrows were launched.

Your info is wrong buddy! The first MiG 25 fox bat was shut down in 1980 by Iranian f14 pilots who shut down an Iraqi MiG 25 during the Iran-Iraq war!

That is possible but if you wan to 'correct' someone like that, it would be desirable to back it up with some sources. For example, 'Iranian F-14 Units in Combat' by Bishop and Cooper have no MiG-25 claims on the list until September 1982.

Ne kužim. Nitko ovoj dvojici u miggovima nije javio da im dolazi netko s leđa? Nisu imali pojima da su ozračeni radarom? Nitko s sirijske strane nije vidio na radaru dva f15 da dolaze? Pa kakva je to vojska??

Mislim da nije bilo s leđa već više odnapred ili strane. Moguće je da su se toliko fokusirali na presretanje izviđačkog Phantoma da nisu toliko obraćali pažnju na ovo. Možda je i RWR bio neispravan. Teško je reći točno bez svjedočanstva Sirijaca.

Ali čitajući knjige sa opisima stvarnih sukoba, stalno se provlači jedna stvar. Događaji iz stvarnosti često nemaju smisla ako ih probaš objasniti kroz DCS. Zaključak, koliko god DCS bio realan, ipak je samo simulacija.

@@showtime112 dosta tih izraelskih priča se mogu protumačiti kao "lovačke" priče u kojima nema baš nešto previše istine. Gledao sam svjedočenje izraelskog pilota Rona Ronana. Tip se s wingmanom Borio protiv 12 MiGova 21. Čak je i wingmanu rekao da ide kući a on će još malo biti u borbi. Hm... I naravno nitko ga srušio nije .. no ovo je samo igra. Super kanal.

Essentially, yes. However, it appears that the only kill scored by Iraq in the Desert storm came from a MiG-25. Or maybe it was just luck.

This guy is a Democrap, no truth to his words. Truth is, when Iraqi pilots identified F15s in the area, they would run to Iran and hand over their jets! Even the Mig29 is no match for the F15.
