Because they are terrible aircraft.
who cares? they look cool and they go fast
So was the Tornado F.3 but they added that anyways
Fixed
This is factually incorrect. At least the F.3 can shoot down aircraft smaller than a 4 engined bomber
MiG-25 has shot down F-5, F-14, MiG-21, MQ-1, and F-18
i like my F-15 more but give the foxbat some credit where its due

P39 should have been in the russian regular tree imo.

So can the MiG-25, it would be absolutely fine at like 11.3 - 11.7 or so
The MiG-25 was the aircraft that came closest to the first F-15 air-to-air kill
uhh idk, a bit low, id say 12.0 for the foxbat, and depending on the foxhound, 12.7 or top tier
Depends on the version really, the P vs PD is pretty significant with pulse dopler radar, and the MiG-31 would obviously be much higher with those R-33s
IDK how hard the R-40 can pull and depending on which version of the R-60 you go with there is a decent bit of fine tuning for BR you can do
What’s the stats of the R-40 like?
true, maybe PD since the P would be kinda hard to balance sicne you couldnt justify a high enough BR with its worse radar
MiG-31 could have multiple variants

I’m not super familiar with it if I’m being honest, I just know it’s very long range
off wiki, 8g overload and 80km range but i think it has more range than that, it is a HUGE missile
Doesn’t matter if it’s long range if I can just chaff it away from after launch detection.
8g max overload?
says launch overload, idk if that is same thing
A solid 6gs if you’re lucky
that is true of all missiles, but range is still important.
It was also designed to shoot down Mach 3+ bombers so it’s very fast, kind of like a primitive SARH Fakour-90
