Did anyone report the MiG-25 airbrake opening while the fuel tank is on?
It literally clips through the tank, should be like the MiG-29 where you are unable to use the airbrake I guess.

Is it just me or the MiG-25 doesn’t have LD/SD in the game? The RP-25M should have it.

it does, you just have to fly high enough, like with MiG-23. At certain altitude radar will give you ability to change the range as well as tilt it down or up
I test flew it yesterday at high altitudes, I don’t recall seeing MTI at any point
oh, if you are talking about MTI - it works exactly the same as on the MiG-23. You must be below 1.5 km of altitude and there must be terrain behind the target

Theres a music video called “Migs of Fire” that had a similar if not same shot, but I do not know about the original source.

I am still trying to understand how people are getting so ‘gaga’ over the MiG-25PD. I have tried the test flight at varying altitudes, and the only time it seems to really come into its own is indeed at like 20km or higher… which takes quite a while to climb to.
However, the majority of missions involve situations that are exceedingly lower to within ~8km or less, at which I feel like the performance of this is just… a bus that can’t push past roughly mach 1.2 and loses everything in one slow turn… Not to mention the small choice of armament…
IDK, maybe I am doing something wrong, or perhaps it just is not for me, but I feel like it is being oversold by the masses when in reality it is anything but… Albeit I do really enjoy the way it looks.
Maybe it is one of those, mostly meant just for collectors…

Can’t speak for the others, but I just like the aircraft, it’s looks and sadly it’s only going to exist as an event variant for now but I take what I can get. Hopefully the other variants come into the game soon enough with changes to maps/modes to allow aircraft like these to thrive (strategic bomber mode?).
I also like it, even though I think it’s botched in some ways. It’s still going to work and be fun.
Yeah pretty much, I love doing flybys over ground units (popping flares in aircraft that have it) and love when its done when I’m a ground unit too. The jet sounds are pretty excellent compared to the past.
