Russian Air Force Fighter MiG-31 Photo Collection "Mikoyan Mig-31 (Famous Russian Aircraft)" By Yefim Gordon 2007 MIDLAND ◆◆Contents◆◆ The long-range interceptor fighter MiG-31 Foxhound, test-flown as the Ye-155MP in 1975, began production in 1979, and the first regiment began operations in 1982. It was also sold to China, and a considerable number are still in service. Yefim Gordon, a leading Russian aviation writer, continues to accumulate unpublished and excellent materials. The MiG-31 is covered to some extent in the now out-of-print AeroFax on the MiG-25 and -31, but this new book is close to the definitive edition on this important aircraft, including a vast amount of newly released and acquired information, and wonderful unpublished photographs (including detailed walk-around shots) and drawings. Of course, the background of the project, development, versions, service, weapons, and comparisons with contemporary aircraft such as the F-14 Tomcat are detailed. It is a popular aircraft for enthusiasts and modelers, and the wide range of coverage on the technical and operational aspects, backed by high-quality images and drawings, makes it a valuable resource. ◆◆Specifications◆◆ Foreign book, English Aircraft, Fighter, Plastic model Photo collection Hardcover 28.5 × 22 × 2 cm 224 pages ◆◆Condition◆◆ Slightly faded cover due to aging Corner dent on the lower right side Pages are in good condition #book #fighter #RussianAirForce #Soviet #AirForce
