This it will just knock itself out of the air as soon as it launches a missile since its going so fast. Planes like these are just targets in the air since missiles now go faster than the speed they are hopping this can go.

Also the fuel... with engines that big whilst having such small wings along with a small fuselage the operational range would be small. It would take off and have to come back 10 minutes later.

I was wondering the same thing: what do they want to intercept at such speeds? Aurora (if it even exists)? Maybe they could use ramjets to accelerate for a ballistic hop out of the atmosphere and launch a missile at a low-flying spy satellite near its perigee?

That's what they said about MiG-25 until they clocked at over Mach 3. Russia has always been the one pushing speed on actual combat jets - 25 and 31 hold many records. It's just we're back the Soviet style no compromise demands, I'm hoping MiG pull this one off!

Big engines, lots of speed, one big problem - doesn't looks to me like it has much fuel capacity. Not saying it's a bad plane, Russian have lots of good aircraft. But, if this plane does and has all these things, including an internal weapons bay, it has sacrificed fuel space. Speed isn't everything if you can go Mach 3.5+, but only might have a combat range of 2 to 3 hundred miles?

[@jamesstreet228]

You would think they learned that lesson with the Mig25. It was fast but only in a straight line and at it's max speed the engine started eating itself. It could carry fuel OR weapons but not both at the same time because of it's weight. It was so heavy that it's range was 350 milesish and that's if they didn't kick in the afterburners. Basically a useless aircraft. We found all that out when Victor Belenko delivered one to Japan. He went to Japan because that's as far as he could get on a tank of Smirnoff potato juice. Even then he was down to the peelings when he landed.

As an interceptor it makes sense to only have frontal stealth as this machine’s primary mission is to defend the borders from attackers, meaning that the enemy will come from only one direction at a time.

[@MrArgus11111]

You have no idea what you're talking about

[@yoamal1187]

[@StrangerHappened]

Indeed, this is exactly the scenario for MiG-25/31/41. Its goal is to quickly jump into high altitude and intercept its targets that can, indeed, go from roughly one direction. Hence it does not need more than frontal and a bit of sideways stealth and it does not need super manoeuvrability. A totally different plane from anything else currently in use worldwide.

[@pjduker05]

I would agree with you if this were a cold war scenario. But unfortunately it wouldn't work to well in a modern setting. The biggest reason being that their enemies won't come from a single direction. Frankly we never have. Look at D-day. That was a many pronged front with fake outs on distant beaches. Now that said, a nation like the USA would certainly have many assets in the air searching for Russian interceptors and SAMs. This means our new friend the Mig-41 isn't getting pinged from just the front. Furthermore he would be up against stealth fighters and bombers as well. So unless he activates his active radar he will have just as hard of a time hunting us. And of course as soon as he does that every air and naval asset will have his location and it'll be less than minutes before he's parachuting over the eastern coast of Russia.

We always knew when they were coming up, we had onboard equipment that let us know.. A simple 1.2° in any direction on any flight control surface.. would foil any attempt they had to even lock us on radar.

Exactly! Even though they apparently had a rearview mirror in the cockpit, they never had a reason to use it. Brian Shule mentioned it during his speaking tour days, while looking back at himself in it, inspired him to take what might have been the first selfie, from his personal camera on a 10 second timer looking back from his instrument panel during a training mission. As for the Mig they're going need to make some serious advances in engine technology, since both the 25 and 31 running balls out for maximum speed runs pretty much fubar the engines requiring immediate replacement. If that doesn't happen the next flight would be sketchy at best.

The SR 71 is a one off specialty that costs god only knows how much, requires weeks of prep before every flight and weeks of service after every mission flown. The Mig is lucky if they paint more than once every 20 years. Its made of leadish like materials and they used a brick for its aerodynamic profile.

It's also a curiousity of mine, of how fast the SR-71 could really go, in such overload, burst speed settings. There are pilot reports of Mach 3.5 in the SR-71, and that's the highest publically available speed data. Engineering analsys on the shock cones of the engines, i vaguely remember showed full retraction and losing thrust past a certain speed... Even so, the true top end is a vague question mark, still. Russia was much more boastful with the Mig-31. It'll be exciting to see how far they can push the new aircraft, honestly, anything past the high mach 2's all require similar feats of engine tech wizardry, in terms of novel engineering solutions, as the SR-71 has. It is more a question, as i understand it, of what speed range they tune it for. The SR-71 is a slide-rule designed plane, from... what now, 50+ years ago? Surely, computers can help us do better than just the 3.2 mach in bursts of the similarly, not hyper advanced computer design aided engine engineering techniques that exist in the MiG-31.

[@johnthomas-km2bf]

Knowing just enough about the A-12 and SR-71 and what they had to overcome to make it happen, I am somewhat skeptical. Materials, electronics, and techniques have improved with time, but physics still applies. Keeping it in one piece and not melting from the heat is going to be a really neat trick. Turning something going that fast is also a tricky task. Lastly, let's not forget cost. Something like this would cost obscene amounts of money to develop, let alone to produce enough to be a real strategic or tactical threat.

Both China and Russia have functioning hypersonic missiles like the Kinzhal that Russia actually used in Ukraine. US just had a 3rd test of their hypersonic missile after the previous 2 failed, and they succeeded this time. But that means that the testing phase isn't even over yet. US has better stealth technology but when it comes to pure speed and maneuverability, Russia has them beat there. Neither f22 or f35 have fully fledged thrust vectoring engines but Su57 does (su57 engines can move in a full 360 degree range of motion while the ones on f22 and f35 can only move up and down) Let's not even mention the fact that US military budget is bigger than the other top 5 countries combined, yet they can't even develop a decent rocket engine and have been using the Russian Soyuz rocket for decades to take their astronauts to the ISS.

Russian jets are extremely sturdy and can be maintained at remote air bases, while American fifth gen fighters like f35 and f22 require hours of maintenance for a single hour of flight.

[@scottturcotte1860]

It is my understanding that the limiting factor of speed with the SR71 had more to do with keeping the plane held back in a zone where it wouldn't destroy itself from the stresses of flying at a velocity the airframe could reasonably manage to handle for a sustained amount of time... not too much because of the engines lacking the ability to push it faster. This same airframe limitation is also why they didn't try to build a carrier version SR71, they couldn't make it robust enough to land without worries... I would suspect, if the Soviets could develop a similar or better power plant as the SR71, then the top sustainable speed world probably also be limited by the abilities of the airframe... tricky problems pushing airplanes that fast, not as easy to do as a missle, and there are other factors the SR71 took advantage of that don't seem to be in the mix of the rendition of aircraft shown in this video... but who knows... and of course, good luck to building such an amazing plane! LOL

[@rodshoaf]

why would you even think of trying to land an SR-71 on a carrier flight deck... a plane that needs a parachute just to land in something like 2 miles of runway. Get out of here with thinking of landing it on a carrier.. there were never any ideas of putting something like that on the flight deck. Hell it's so heavy it can barely get off the ground and needs all of the runway at takeoff speed.

[@scottturcotte1860]

I have seen footage of them launching off a carrier. This presumably was just to see if it could be done, similar to seeing how the Hercules was also considered and tested for carrier landing. I also remember hearing someone discussing them looking into the possibility of what it would take to beef up the airframe enough to land an SR71 varient on a carrier, but this idea was scrapped as unfeasible... and the SR71 was serving quite adequately in it's normal capacity... this wasn't my idea, these were things that were actually done or considered for proposals.... the military loves to consider possibilities that sound good but aren't sound....

Everyones been talking about how the engines could never reach those speeds, but i think that the possibility has to be entertained of russia using rotating detonation engines for this project.

That's why you know the F22 raptor is a bad boy because everybody else is trying to copy that shape

[@angelosasso1653]

I call BS on the speed. The SR-71 was really pushing it and it was specifically designed for max speed and they used a "kinda" ramjet engine for it. Just by looking at current hypersonic platforms you can figure out, that it is extremely hard to pull off something faster than the SR-71 as the heat and engine design become mind boggling tasks. If you engage in jet design rather than building rockets, everything faster than Mach 3 becomes an absolute nightmare...

[@alexeyvlasenko6622]

Definitely, a speed of Mach 4.1 would imply that this thing uses ramjets, which it doesn't look like it does, and which have severe downsides (insane fuel consumption, very poor performance at low speeds). Also, such high speeds would require a specially designed airframe, which again this doesn't look like it has. A real Mach 4.1 aircraft would probably look more like a hypersonic missile than a plane. It would likely have to use a rocket booster to get up to ramjet speed, then use the ramjet to go above Mach 4, at which speed it would have very limited range, probably only a few hundred km one way.

[@angelosasso1653]

@@alexeyvlasenko6622 Completely agree, you will need something like a dual stage approach to even get to ramjet speeds. Not to mention the ramjet prototypes that had been put out so far, proved a need for extensive cooling on almost every part and the prototypes as you mentioned already look like rockets, so there is little room for improvement aerdynamically speaking. The SR-71 was getting hot enough on the outside to have a BBQ party on the frame. There are good reasons nobody builds fighter jets with speeds greater than Mach 2.x. Sadly there is a lot of sensationalist videos here on YT, where the CGI rendering clearly dictates the story...

@@carlosandleon Yeah but at this point it seems russia seeminly can't afford to mass produce Pak Fa. India's withdrawal from their joint partnership for production of the aircraft was clearly a huge blow to it's development.

[@DevLSpark]

Mach 4.3 won't happen. Mach 3.5 probably won't either. Not because they can't, but because there's no use case. The SR-71 needed speed to outrun air defences of the day and be in and out before presenting enough time to detect, track, and fire upon. It needed that speed. Fast interceptors are nice, but buying 10 slower and more widely dispersed aircraft is always going to beat buying 1 stupidly fast and stupidly expensive engineering marvel. For fast threats no manned machine is going to be better than a fast modern missile.

only way to achieve this is the use of MHD and plasma for actuators and boundary layers.. russians have a pretty interesting experience producing plasma with jet engines by adding specific additives. the beauty of plasma is that it would litterally absorb any radar wave, making it invisible. sounds like sci fi but lets speculate a bit.

The new Mig may exist as a prototype--a prototype cgi program. The Y-12 could already reached closely to mach 4 in the mid-60s according to pilots on record here on KZbin. Kelly Johnson said fuel was the limiting factor on the YF12, Y12, and SR71. But at full afterburner in dense cold air, mach 4 was possible for a short time until fuel was exhausted on the lighter YF12 which was heavier than the mig 25 and 31.Pilots hit 3500mph in the SR71 and faster in lighter Y12 which equals mach4

[@Avatarbee]

It is kinda funny how the US thought that the MIG 25 was some sort of super fighter, when in reality all it could really do was go REAL fast and shoot down bombers and spy planes, because that is what it was built to do. Yet the US panicked and rushed to develop an all purpose fighter that could beat the image of the MIG 25 they had in their heads.
