MiG-31 fighter.

The MiG-31 fighter, codenamed "Foxhound" (Foxhound) by NATO, is a two-seat all-weather interceptor developed by the Mikoyan Design Bureau of the Soviet Union, which entered service with the Soviet Army in 1982, and more than 200 are still in service with the Russian Air Force until now. In addition, Kazakhstan is one of the users of the aircraft and plans to upgrade it.

The MiG-31 fighter is a twin-engine two-seater, with a normal layout of dual air intakes on both sides, cantilever swept upper wings, and double vertical tails, which is relatively large, which also makes it easy to accept upgrades and modifications. The fuselage of the machine is an all-metal structure, which is made of a large number of lightweight gold alloys, 49% titanium alloy and aluminum alloy, 50% alloy steel, and the rest composite materials.

The MiG-31 is the world's first fighter equipped with a passive phased array radar, and its Zaslon S-800 radar system has a maximum search range of up to 200 kilometers, and has the ability to simultaneously lock on to 10 targets and guide the R-33 (AA-9) medium-range air-to-air missile to attack four of them. The data link of the aircraft can transmit the information of enemy aircraft obtained by radar and other nuclear bridge equipment to other fighters with radar turned off, and can independently complete the combat mission in the absence of air warning.

The MiG-29 is a twin-engine high-mobility supersonic fighter developed by the Mikoyan Design Bureau of the Soviet Union, which can perform a variety of discreet missions such as interception, escort, ground attack and reconnaissance, and is used to replace the MiG-21, MiG-23, Su-15, Su-17 and other fighters of the Soviet Air Force. The development of the aircraft began in the early 70s of the 20th century, the prototype made its first flight on October 6, 1977, was put into mass production in 1982, and entered service with the Soviet Air Force in 1983.

R&D background. The MiG-3 fighter is a single-seat piston fighter used by the Soviet Union in World War II, which is actually an improved version of the MiG-1 fighter. The aircraft was designed by the Mikoyan Aircraft Design Bureau, which was subordinate to the First State Aircraft Plant at the time of the Ant Enlightenment, but the original design idea came from the K-type aircraft of the Bolikarpov Design Bureau.

Introduction to Performance. Due to the increase in weight, the original MiG-3 was even inferior to the earlier MiG-1 in terms of performance, and the fuel consumption was also greater than originally estimated due to altitude problems during test flights. In addition, due to insufficient oil pressure, the aircraft did not perform well at high altitudes, and the poor operating habits of the test pilots also led to a number of other problems.

In order to complete the aircraft, the designers quickly replaced it with new fuel and oil pumps, and provided the pilots with better training courses to help them become familiar with the operation of the MiG-3. From the spring of 1942, the MiG-3 was gradually withdrawn from the front-line combat aviation regiments and transferred to the air defense forces.

The MiG-29 fighter is codenamed "Fulcrum" by the NATO code name of the MiG-29 fighter, which is a twin-engine high-performance air supremacy fighter designed by the Mikoyan Design Bureau in the Soviet Union, and the development history of the MiG-29 fighter can be traced back to 1969, when the Soviet Union learned that the US Air Force was carrying out the FX program (eventually forming the F-15), and planned to develop a new type of fighter in order to be able to counterbalance it, so it targeted the development of the future front-line fighter program (PFI).

The MiG-29 is hydraulically controlled, and the SAU-451 three-axis automatic flight instrument, in order to facilitate the pilot's model change, the cockpit of the aircraft is not heavily ergonomically designed to make it as similar as possible to the previous MiG-23.

The MiG-29 fighter uses two separate Klimov RD-33 turbojet engines, each engine has a thrust of 1,000 newtons, and can produce a maximum thrust of 1,000 newtons when flying in the air, and the space between the two engines can provide additional lift for the fighter and reduce the wing load, thereby enhancing the maneuverability of the fighter, the maximum flight speed of the aircraft can reach 2400 kilometers per hour, which can be regarded as the best fighter in its class.

In terms of equipment, the MiG-29 fighter in the air combat, mainly use the R-27 medium-range air-to-air missile, R-73 short-range air-to-air missile, in some cases will also use the older R-60 short-range air-to-air missile, in addition, the aircraft can also mount bombs and rocket pods, etc., the successor model also has the ability to use laser, or optoelectronic guidance, it is worth mentioning that some models of MiG-29 can carry nuclear ** at the internal test hardpoint.

MiG-29 fighter.

The MiG-29 fighter, codenamed "Fulcrum" (NATO), is a twin-engine, high-performance air supremacy fighter designed by the Mikoyan Design Bureau during the Soviet era.

The development of the MiG-29 can be traced back to 1969, when the Soviet Union learned that the U.S. Air Force was working on the FX program (which eventually became the F-15) to develop a new fighter to counterbalance it. As a result, the Future Frontline Fighter Program (PFI) was developed in a purely sullen manner.

The MiG-29 uses hydraulic control with SAU-451 three-axis automatic flying instruments. In order to facilitate the pilot's changeover, the pilot's cockpit was not heavily ergonomically designed to make it as similar as possible to the previous MiG-23.

The MiG-29 fighter uses two Klimov RD-33 turbojet engines set up separately, each with a thrust of kilonewtons, which can produce up to a thousand newtons of thrust when in the air. The space between the two engines provides additional lift and reduces wing loads, enhancing the aircraft's maneuverability. The maximum flight speed of this aircraft can reach 2,400 kilometers per hour, which can be regarded as one of the best fighters of its kind.

In terms of equipment, the MiG-29 fighter mainly uses the R-27 medium-range air-to-air missile, the R-73 short-range air-to-air missile, and in some cases, the older R-60 short-range air-to-air missile. In addition, the aircraft can also carry bombs and rocket pods, etc.**, and the successor model also has the ability to use laser or optoelectronic guidance**. It is worth mentioning that some models of the MiG-29 can carry a grip with a core at the internal test center**.
