Beschreibung
As early as 1965, when the MiG-25 interceptor was in the midst of its test program, the Mikoyan Design Bureau started work on an even more capable two-seat interceptor meant to provide adequate protection for the huge expanses of Siberia and the Soviet Far East. Though superficially resembling a MiG-25 with tandem cockpits, the aircraft was soon designated the MiG-31.

Initially dubbed Super Foxbat in the West but soon renamed Foxhound, the MiG-31 first flew 16th September 1975 and, after a five-year trials program, achieved initial operational capability in 1980. Efforts to improve the Foxhound began right away. In-flight refueling capability was added in 1989 to overcome the problem of inadequate range. Next, the MiG-31B featuring upgraded avionics and better weapons entered production in 1990; existing MiG-31s were brought up to the new standard as the MiG-31BS.

In this book, the complete development and service history of this remarkable aircraft is looked at in great detail. Illustrated with color photos and artwork, MiG-31 is a must-have for historians, enthusiasts, and modelers alike.
