Who puts mudflaps on a 2000 mph jet? The Soviets, that's who. She wasn't agile, but she was the fastest fighter ever to spit fire. Here's my tribute to the stainless steel MiG monster!

This is my tribute to the fastest, craziest fighter ever built.
FEATURES:
Handmade exhaust nozzles, air brakes and landing gear
Realistic scale, paint and performance
Mach 3 top speed, 2200mph
50,000 pounds of wet thrust
CONTROLS:
Left hand slider controls takeoff/landing/trim flaps
(1) Activate afterburners
(2) Deploy braking parachutes
(7) Jettison (dumbfire) all missiles
High altitude, mach-3 interceptor. Low maneuverability, unually high stall speed. Best performance with afterburner on above 20,000 feet. Best landing speed 300mph with flaps fully deployed. Hit the brakes and the chutes when you get to the edge of the runway and whatever you do, KEEP THAT NOSE UP!

Killing it man!
@HappyFeetWhyshouldi That's cause I waited a long time to start uploading. My first build is called "Thunderchicken" and I uploaded it when I turned gold.
This is 1000X better than my first build lol
Yes. The lunatic Soviets 😂 @KnightOfRen
@shipster
Crazy soviets and their AWESOME aircraft!
@KnightOfRen Thank you
Whoa! This is sick! I always loved these planes! Congrats on feature!
@Northsoutheastthrop Yes. Plus people copy old, misinformed papers from old US intelligence instead of new, accurate Russian historical info. But they do keep stuff really secret
@F104Deathtrap they keep their military information very secret, unlike the US where you can literally google every plane
@Northsoutheastthrop I know how you feel. About 1/3 of the blueprints I find are at least partially wrong, especially Russian stuff.
@F104Deathtrap yea I think I got scammed the blueprint I was using was wrong lol
@F104Deathtrap ok
@Northsoutheastthrop The Foxbat's nose is shockingly large, especially the interceptor versions with their powerful radar mounted inside the nose. Click here Your version is closer in shape to the Mig-31 Foxhound, an improved version of the Mig-29 with better equipment, 2 crewmen and a shorter nose. Click here
Don't worry though, they're both great jets and you did a great job.
Is the nose supposed to be that long or my mig is wrong?
lol @F104Deathtrap
@shipster Thanks! My first project. I really should remake her, I didn't know much about handling when I built this.
What a beast...
@ThatoneMArtist Thank you. I hope you enjoy it.
@F104Deathtrap welldone it is amazing.
@ThatoneMArtist Your english is fine, I just needed more information.
This was my first upload. The plane is far from perfect, I want to make a new one that flies more realistically. But I did spend almost a month building it.
I started by collecting data from wikipedia about the size, performance and shape of the plane. I collected 30-40 photographs of the plane from different angles, showing all little details like air-brakes, intakes, etc. Then I carefully resized a schematic diagram of the plane so that each 20 pixels of the diagram was one block in the game and used Microsoft Paint to measure everything as I finally started to build.
@F104Deathtrap how did you build this interceptor? What was your aid building it? Did you build it while looking at a 3d Mig-25P model or did you just make up your mind because it is so damn perfect?.(i'm not native so sorry if english is little broken).
@ThatoneMArtist I don't understand your questiins. Can you rephrase them?
HOw just tell me man ?
3d models or something????
@Ironghost Thanks! They took forever.
cool nozzles!
