They were terrified of it. People think it's a shit box because of propaganda where it was compared to the F-15 in dogfights. It would be like comparing the STOL capabilities of the X-15 to the AN-2. Meanwhile her successor, the MiG-31, is still racking up wins lobbing hypersonics and long range air to air missiles into Ukraine with impunity. permalink fedilink source parent
