which is what they did when they captured a Mig 25 there’s document about it but I don’t personally have it You can feel free to do a search on it to see for yourself
except that is how stuff is implemented into the game, they take the values from the manuals and apply their multiplier
this is the case for every other plane so why should MiG 25 be different
Ii not included on the chart you put but with drop tanks corresponds with the M=1.5 limit. Stated too in the manual

The safety limit is already in them…Take for example the max flight above mach 2.5. Depending on the speed it is limited by time even if below 2.83 due to heating. Airspeed, if instruments fail the limit is reduced to 1000kph
For the 11g claim, its just a repeated story that gets repeated and repeated and repeated and taken its is taken as gospel.
For the 1400kph limit, nothing on the manuals. If you saw a higher value its must be 1500kph but thats for the Mig31’s manual level flight chart( up to 8KM and then 1200kph above 12km)

Also, for this, I would assume the plane total weight is 30 tons?
test video
The maximum IAS limit for the MiG-25 was 1,300 km/h in real life. They gradually increased it from 1,100 km/h to 1,200 km/h then finally 1,300 km/h as the issues were resolved.
Technically, it could go 1,445 km/h at sea level while risking aileron reversal.
The mach limit is also a safety limit only. It could go mach 3.2 in real life.
Please don’t mess make them bottle it like they did with the Javelin Mk.9.

Can you gimme a source for that.
Also planes in game are modeled off their safety limit, just see stuff like typhoon that are allowed to pull 12 Gs in emergency but their in service limit is 9gs so it’s modeled in game as 1.5 x 9g
“In 1971 the interceptor entered production as the MiG-25P. As compared to the prototypes, the production version incorporated quite a few changes aimed at improving aerodynamic efficiency, such as the enlarged and recontoured fins and rudders, the smaller and likewise recontoured ventral fins, differentially movable tailplanes and 2° wing incidence… The modifications increased the MiG-25’s top speed to 1,300 km/h (812.5 mph) IAS. Several issues concerning intercept tactics, flight safety and test data processing were resolved and steps were taken to improve serviceability and ease of maintenance.”
So if they accept your report as it is, they’re going to model it as the MiG-25P Early, which is basically the Ye-155P-3 prototype in low rate production, but with the later MiG-25PD armament.
The safety limits for the MiG-25 were extremely cautious and did not entirely reflect the aircraft’s capabilities. They were like safety limits on top of safety limits. Don’t make them bottle it up like they did with the Javelin and model its FM as if it’s strictly guided by GCI in real life.

That’s disrespectful and no he doesn’t. The majority of the time he’s accurate and if there’s a shortcoming in proofreading in his English editions, you can fill in the gaps yourself.
Don’t report it just for the sake of having fun. That’s the flight performance of the Ye-155P-3.

He says nonsense like r33e is energy variant of r33 when it’s just export version of it. And nonsense like that. Why should someone trust a secondary source over a primary manual source

I just report what’s in the book. I don’t care about nerfs or buffs, I hate that kind of thing where people only report to only buff/nerf something to their liking

all i can find in manual is that speed can go up to 1230 kph technically
Lol, if that goes through and Gaijin nerfs its acceleration by that much, 10.7 might be fine.

you typing this made me realize that it is not fking 500 percent, i misdid it.
Its actually 2.4 times overperforming/140 percent, nowehere close to 500 percent, i accidentally took the 21 second value of the actual video instead of the difference lmao.
50 seconds instead of 21 seconds
