The Mig-31 "Foxhound" was developed as the replacement of the Mig-25 "Foxbat",the prototype Ye-155MP took the first flight on 16 September 1975.As the heaviest fighter/interceptor in the world, the Mig-31 is much heaver than other similar aircrafts. At the same time, tow powerful D-30-F6 engines and a stronger airframe gave it a top speed to Mach 2.8 at high-altitude and Mach 1.23 at low-altitude.
