From among this lineup of new fighters and interceptors stood the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25-purportedly capable of outrunning and outmaneuvering any aircraft in NATO's inventory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYet even before its public appearance in Moscow, the MiG-25 had been a grave concern for Western analysts. Indeed, this new interceptor could fly at speeds in excess of Mach 3 and cruise at altitudes heretofore deemed unreachable for a tactical fighter. Moreover, NATO's intelligence community was baffled by how the Soviet Union had cobbled together such a \"masterpiece\" of modern engineering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe reality, however, was that this \"interceptor\" was a poorly-designed airframe with an oversized motor. Although it excelled as a reconnaissance aircraft, it fared poorly as a dogfighter - and it was typically the loser when pitted against Western aircraft like the F-14 Tomcat and F-15 Eagle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the Sinai Peninsula...to the Soviet-Afghan War...to Operation Desert Storm, \u003ci\u003eFoxbat Tales\u003c\/i\u003e is the definitive operational and combat history of the MiG-25.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-4898082\"\u003eMike Guardia\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Magnum Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/31\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.29d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780999644355\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0999644351\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS027140\"\u003eMilitary | Aviation \u0026amp; Space\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Magnum Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44447024185581,"sku":"9780999644355","price":18.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_989eb7da-23e4-4a2e-95c9-cdd8d3d34bab.jpg?v=1700287672","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/foxbat-tales-the-mig-25-in-combat-9780999644355","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
