You guys sound pretty confident the stuff you’re saying that thing goes mock three as well and has r33 that goes Mach 5 and 300 km range that thing would get eaten
For those who don’t know, The SR-71 Blackbird, a legendary reconnaissance aircraft developed by Lockheed's Skunk Works division, is widely regarded as one of the fastest and most advanced aircraft ever built. With its sleek design and unmatched speed capabilities, the SR-71 holds the record for the fastest air-breathing manned aircraft, capable of reaching speeds exceeding Mach 3. This remarkable jet was specifically designed for high-altitude, high-speed reconnaissance missions during the Cold War, and its cutting-edge technology included advanced radar-absorbing materials, sophisticated avionics, and the ability to outpace enemy missiles and interceptors with ease. Equipped with powerful engines, the SR-71 could fly at altitudes of up to 85,000 feet, well above most enemy aircraft and missile systems. Its legacy lives on as a symbol of technological innovation and strategic reconnaissance, with the SR-71 continuing to captivate aviation enthusiasts and historians alike due to its unrivaled capabilities. Despite its retirement, its influence on modern stealth and reconnaissance aircraft remains profound.
The Foxbat couldn't catch the Blackbird, and it wasn't for lack of trying, it flew too high and too fast. SR-71's would fly outside of Soviet airspace taunting the MiGs and then light their afterburners and fly away laughing when the Russians tried to intercept them.
Why does the foxbat have to catch up? Intercept does not you have to overtake the target. You just need to be in the line of sight to fire which the R-40 is capable of dealing with these target
@@divinesan7786the missile can’t catch up tho😂 not only would it have to gain altitude the r-40’s supposed top speed is only slightly faster than the sr-71, the r-40 only has a 2.4 second burn time the thing has no chance of gaining 5 to 10 thousand feet and catching up to a target that is going Mach 3.5😂😂
@ ya “the same one that shot down an f18” 25 years after it came out. Unlike Russia americas shit is ready to go straight out of the box not after 30 years of fixing it so it doesn’t eat it’s own engine at half of its top speed
I mean tbh the Americans are the ones that made it a paper tiger. The Soviets just wanted to make a high altitude interceptor and the Americans thought oh no look it’s a new super fighter. And they kept thinking that for forever because American internal intelligence sucked during the Cold War.
@@sovietbanana4589 that’s the most cope thing I’ve ever read. The soviets claimed it was an interceptor fighter that could fly at Mach 2.5. Except it ate its own engine at 1.7. And all their bluffing did was light a fire under America’s ass to get the f15. Which could actually do everything they said it could and more. So all the typical Soviet grandstanding did was bring in an actually superior air superiority fighter that would dominate for the next 30 years until the f22. Same thing they’ve done with the su57 and 75. Same thing they’ve done with their “hypersonic missiles”.
@@anthonyedwards6331 for one the f-15 was not a undisputed air superiority fighter because the su-27 and other Soviet 4th gens existed that matched and even surpassed the f-15 in some areas. And another thing was that the mig-25 was made to be an interceptor and it was western press that freaked out the u.s. Also as mentioned u.s intel sucked at getting much of anything out of the Soviets other than the aerial photography of the u-2. Seeing a plane with an eerily similar airframe freaked out the u.s, especially with the plane setting multiple speed records. Saying that the mig-25 had a specific role and that the u.s misguessed that role is absolutely not cope.
This is a lie, you wouldn’t even be able to get close enough to shoot a missile at the sr-71😂😂
Yea and the sr71 would outrun it
The mig 25 can get close to the speed of the sr71, so depending on the circumstances it could intercept it
@@fjxhxfhjgthe altitude is too low the SR71 would never fly that low
@Vipbossguy true but this is war thunder after all lol anything can happen
You guys sound pretty confident the stuff you’re saying that thing goes mock three as well and has r33 that goes Mach 5 and 300 km range that thing would get eaten
The SR 71 wasn’t going full speed
Also the radar jammers on the sr 71 should completely prevent a lock
Lmao R-40R is mach 4.5, good luck outrun that
@@stungus.R-40T is also Heat seeking so the SR-71 is basically dead
Pov: a MIG-25 pilot's wet dream

They wish 😆
Fr that thing would be gone in a blink of an eye
Now if only the mig25 wasn’t a paper tiger
mig 31 ;)
“Paper tiger” the same one shotdown F-18
@ ya “the same one that shot down an f18” 25 years after it came out. Unlike Russia americas shit is ready to go straight out of the box not after 30 years of fixing it so it doesn’t eat it’s own engine at half of its top speed
Historically not accurate but hilarious 😂😂
Sr-71 aint trying to
Blackbird's biggest fear: ✅✅✅✅✅
He’s flying below Mach one
I thought that sr-71 can go Mach 2🤨
It can go up to Mach 3+ but it is to low
Gotcha amerima
Bad piloting on the sr 71 pilot, the mig ain't better
Wrong the sr71 would just go faster
It was almost stalling Xb
@@Mr.Maus.Thunder yh fair enough tbh
Why everyone in comments raging cus of 2 models?
Because the sr would be gone in a blink of an eye
F-15 win
you mean "gayjin"
Now if only the mig25 wasn’t a paper tiger
@rockstarman8370 I still have to give it credit though. It’s created one of the greatest fighter jets in the the world. The f15
