Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25PD Foxbat-E — The Refined Foxbat

I’d recommend everyone watch the video in full, its very informative.

It’s not too long, and the final third focuses on the MiG-31 anyway.

I was watching it and he is speaking there in 10th minute: “The RD could now be launched in a 4G turn, up from 2.5 from the original.”. Thats again other number which should not be confused with maximum G limit and G limit of target. You can see for example for R-24 is maximum aircraft G at launch 5G (you can see it right under maximum missile G.

I mentioned that the missile could engage targets manoeuvring at around 4Gs, maybe up to 8Gs. Ultimately, though, it’s up to Gaijin to determine its in-game performance, it terms of its manoeuvring Gs. I’ve already shared my opinion on what its G-limit should be in the game.

G-limit should be same as irl so 15G approximately.

Just gonna leave this here for future viewers:

Each one of those engagements the MiG 25 outperformed ever single time ;)

Got lucky 3 times, what about it?

Also, there is only a year or 2 difference between F-15C and MiG-25PD. The only reason the MiG’s were able to make it back is because the AIM-7 failed to launch

Not mention a lot of F-4 and F-5.

Third times a charm, maybe it wasn’t luck 😆

if that how you think it is, then all 80+ kill of the f15 combat is just luck bcz he only keep fighting 3th gen fighter mig21/23

F-15 downed 2 MiG-29 in one go

The F-16 been around for less time but has been far more successful. It only shot down newer aircraft like 2 times, it just got lucky a couple times

that why i said 80 or more and not all of the kills

That isn’t luck though, just being better

better at what ? wining a dogfight against no experieced pilot who crashed and damaged engine ?
yeah sure dont waste my time again and go in the proper topic, this mig25pd not mig29

Migs from a country that didnt had the r-73 at the time and badly trained pilots

But hey the F-15 is so great that it got hit from a r-40 which predates the F-15 by around a decade
