MiG-25 RB Soviet Reconnaissance Plane

ICM 1:72.

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25 (Russian: Микоян и Гуревич МиГ-25; NATO reporting name: Foxbat) is a supersonicinterceptor and reconnaissance aircraft that is among the fastest military aircraft to enter service. Designed by the Soviet Union's Mikoyan-Gurevich bureau, it is an aircraft built primarily using stainless steel. It was to be the last plane designed by Mikhail Gurevich, before his retirement.

The first prototype flew in 1964 and the aircraft entered service
in 1970. Although it was capable of reaching Mach 3.2+, this would
result in the engines accelerating out of control and needing
replacement, therefore the operational top speed was limited to Mach 2.83. The MiG-25 features a powerful radar and four air-to-air missiles, and it still has the world record for reached altitude of 38 km (125,000 ft).
