Understanding that aircrafts are created 90% of the time to fulfill specifc role and not to be “an equivalent of X” is apparently beyond some people.

The English manual that’s fully available was the flight operations manual for the plane’s pilots. It was to teach them how to best fly the plane safely, rather than describing its actual capabilities. It can be disastrous to model a plane after its flight operations manual because those manuals can be very conservative. The Javelin was capable of 1,130 km/h IAS at sea level or so in real life, but there was one fatal crash of a prototype in real life whose reason was completely unrelated to high speed flying that provoked them to impose an IAS safety restriction on all production planes, even after everything was ironed out in the production models. This is why the Javelin we have in the game isn’t properly modeled. When they first added it in patch 1.81 in Dec 2018, Gaijin met severe backlash.
They did produce a technical manual on the MiG-25 but I don’t think it’s fully available. I used to have copies of several pages before I cleaned up my old PC.

I sent link of exactly this manual here 7. dec. 2025. Its manual which describe radioelectronic equipment.

I found another manual for MiG-25P:
It doesnt have very good resolution but its readable.

Yes, that’s a pilots manual and that’s why I mentioned that planes are designed to withstand 50% more Gs than what pilots are allowed to pull. 50%, not more, not less
