Default Re: Missing planes in Russian OOB?

One missing aircraft of interest is the MiG-25BM "Foxbat-F". It is the only dedicated SEAD aircraft produced in SU.

Aircraft was accepted for service in 1988 but the test programmes had been completed in 1982, so the plane would have been pressed into service earlier if the situation had demanded. Some of the MiG-25BMs survived to the 2000's remaining in airworthy condition at least to 2002. Active service of the type likely ended in the late 90's.

The weapons load was four Kh-58 (AS-11 Kilter) anti-radiation missiles. The missiles were guided home by the Yaguar navigation and targeting system. MiG-25BM was also equipped with jamming systems working in the centimeter wavelenght areas.
