[edit] Overview
A two-seat supersonic long-range, all-weather interceptor, the Mikoyan MiG-31, code-named "Foxhound" by NATO is the successor to the MiG-25 "Foxbat". Like it's predecessor, it was initially mistaken as a super-dogfighter by western nations. Despite being labeled as an 'improved Foxbat' in reality the MiG-31 is a completely new aircraft, with greater capability than the MiG-25; although its maximum speed is reduced to keep from red lining and potentially damaging its engines. The development of the MiG-31 began in the mid-1970s and by September 16, 1975 the first prototype flew. Approximately, 500 MiG-31s have been produced and at least 370 continue to serve the Russian air force.
This is by far the fastest and hardest-accelerating aircraft in AC0. In AC05, it is only exceeded by its variant, the MiG-31M "Foxhound B".
