“Your bosses thought you might need these. They got them from a MiG-25 they ‘borrowed’ from Syria.”I read Mig Pilot by Victor Belenko. I vaguely remember him saying, that the Mig 25, was clocked at Mach 3.2, I think it was somewhere in the Middle East. What they didn’t tell people, was that when the aircraft got down, they had to change out the engines, because they were essentially destroyed.
