Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-31 'Foxhound' | Thanks for Gold!
Thank you so much for gold! Consider this my gold celebration build.
Special thanks to BogdanX for flight testing and bug fixing. The plane would've been riddled with issues were it not for him helping me when my laptop was reduced to the state illustrated in the below screenshot.
AG-1: Afterburners
AG-2: Slats
AG-3: Landing Chutes
There are two choices for you to pick from.
Loadout 1 (already mounted on the plane)
1x Kh-47M2 Kinzhal Hypersonic Missile (Top speed: Mach 10.)
OR
Loadout 2 (in the trolley on the side)
4x R-33 'AA-9 Amos' Air-To-Air missiles.
2x R-60 'AA-6 Aphid' Air-To-Air missiles.
If mounted properly, should look like this:
Ignore the red circles.
Disclaimer: If you want to use the alternative loadout, please install a gun.
The Mikoyan MiG-31 is a supersonic interceptor aircraft developed for use by the Soviet Air Forces. The aircraft was designed by the Mikoyan design bureau as a replacement for the earlier MiG-25 "Foxbat"; the MiG-31 is based on and shares design elements with the MiG-25.
Sincerely hope you enjoyed it!

@DarthAbhinav yes, sure!
@RandomUser09 Sure! Go ahead, mate. Do give some credit though :P
@DarthAbhinav will you mind if i borrow the missiles from you.
@SCP1471 haha, thank you for the spotlight.
@DarthAbhinav You know, I,m something of a scientist myself.
No prob man, as soon as I saw I could do it I did! @DarthAbhinav
Thank you, @Default4
Yeah, I knew it!@DarthAbhinav1
@WIZARD2017 Yes, I had an account named
DarthAbhinav
two and a half years ago which I had deleted.Do you have another account called DarthAbhinav ?
@DarthAbhinav1 Oh, I see. There really are a lot of small parts in your nozzles. I think it would be better to use these parts to shape the body. Anyway it is a nice work!
@Fei314 the nozzles add ~400 parts. Body + Wings are around 300-400. Details make up the rest.
How can it have so many parts?!!!
The russian power is dominating SP xd
it looks unfinished, but still it's a good work!
I literally know stuff like at what AOA the slats move on the F-16 😂@TheReturningHound
@ChisP Certainly.
👍🏻 I know a lot about Cold War era planes so tag me if you want me to review them sometime@TheReturningHound
@Veronica no problem! Thank you for the upvote and spotlight.
@BogdanX is right. Now that I look back, I believe I could've refined the build a lot more. It feels undercooked, unfinished. I'll keep all these pointers in mind for my next build and will ensure not to rush the upload.
@ChisP
One last thing: Don’t use act groups for AB settings. It’s not realistic. Suprised you didn’t catch his 2 stage ab @BogdanX or does the 31 have a two stage?
I’m talking about AOA stuff not turn rate or radius@TheReturningHound
Perts count, lol
@4rshi
@232287168147825 great map 😉
@ChisP that's a rip. As for the flight performance, the plane mustn't exceed 5Gs in low speeds, therefore, if SP physics is accurate at all, this is how the plane actually handles irl.
@FuriousDream thank you.
