Mikoyan "Firehound" 5th Generation Interceptor Concept

TL;DR Putin's secret weapon. This is what happens when you combine an
Su-57, X-02S, and CFA-44 into one airframe.

The "Firehound" is a 5th generation stealth fighter interceptor concept created by a joint venture between Mikoyan and Sukhoi of Russia. It's suspected the concept is part of Russia's MiG-31 replacement program, being designated as the "MiG-41" and is rumored to be 5th, possibly 6th generation stealth fighter that can top Mach 4. While an even bigger rumor, is that it will be armed with ultra-long range hypersonic air-to-air missiles. Not much else is known about this concept other than it's very obvious design meant for high-speed interception, with stealth elements such as internal weapon bays.
