About Mig-25 P/PD (Foxbat)
MIG-25 (Russian: микоян и гуревич миг-25) (NATO Report Name: "Foxbat") is a third generation hunter/ preventive hunter/ preventive and high-speed discovery aircraft developed and produced by the Russian Mikoyan Gurevich Design Bureau (OCB). Foxbat, which made its first flight as a prototype in 1964, has worried the Western observers of its time with its ability to watch three times fast than sound, strong radar system and long-range air-to-air missile equipment, and these concerns formed the ground for the development of F-14 Tomcat fighter aircraft in the medium term.
1972 [1] Mig-25, which was put into service at the Soviet Air Defense Forces (PVO Strany), has not been realized until 1976 due to the confidentiality of the program. That year, a Russian Mig-25 pilot named Viktor Belenko with the plane to Japan with the asylum in Japan after the chance to examine this new and mysterious Soviet aircraft Western observers, two large turbojet engines, vacuum tubes (lamp circuit) electronic infrastructure and light and cheap materials are used for years. they have reached the opinion that they have a design.
Mig-25, which has been produced to date, has been produced in 1,190 units, and provides a limited number of services in Algeria and Syrian Air Force inventory.
Most of the parts of the age are caused by hand and quite rough. Again, unlike American designs with cheap and easy production anxiety, rivet heads were not buried in the trunk in places that are thought to not affect the aerodynamic structure of the aircraft.
The majority of the electronic systems of the aircraft have vacuum tube (lamp circuit) technology. This preference has three important advantages:
Vacuum tubular systems are better based on extreme temperature caused by high -speed cruise, unlike transistor -based modern systems, it does not require air conditioning devices.
Since the production of vacuum tubes is quite easy and cheap, the maintenance and repair of electronic systems can be realized quickly and economically in advanced bases and deployment areas.
Vacuum tube systems are not affected by destructive electromagnetic waves caused by nuclear explosions.
Again, thanks to the use of vacuum tube systems, the Smerch-A (NATO: Foxfire) radar of the aircraft can reach a terrible power like 600 kilowatt. According to a widely voiced urban legend, hundreds of rays were found by burning because of the microwave rays emitted by the powerful Smerch-A radar around the air bases where Mig-15s are negotiated, and for this reason, the radar of radar was prohibited from using a radar system without reaching a certain altitude.
In spite of its impressive speed, the migraine's task range is only 1,200 km. So much so that the fuel of the MİG-25, which was used by Viktor Berenko, who was asylum in Japan in 1976, was exhausted immediately after the landing.
The Mikoyan Gurevich Design Office, who was shocked by the asylum of Viktor Berenko, is perhaps the most strictly protected industrial secret, has developed the Mig-25PD FOXBAT-E derivative, in which more powerful (and efficient) engines and developed radar and electronic systems are integrated on the basic design to maintain the deterrence of Mig-25. 370 Mig-25p, which was previously put into service, was gradually increased to this standard.
Mig-25, whose production continued until 1984, has been produced with a total of 1,186 units with all its derivatives, and some of them were exported to Algeria, Bulgaria, India, Syria, Iraq and Libya. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the MİG-25, which continues to be used by Russia and Azerbaijan, still serves in the inventory of these two countries, albeit limitedly.
