Model Kit

The MiG-31 'Foxhound' was developed as the replacement of the MiG-25 'Foxbat'. The prototype Ye-155MP first flew on 16 September 1975. As the heaviest fighter/interceptor in the world, the MiG-31 is much heavier than other similar aircraft. Two powerful D-30-F6 engines and a stronger airframe gave it a top speed of Mach 2.8 at high-altitude and Mach 1.23 at low-altitude.

The Mig-31 entered the operational service with the Soviet Air Defense Force in 1982, they were used for a variety of long-range missions. More than 300 aircrafts are in service in both Russia and Kazakhstan.
