Honestly, im loving this calm mysterious F-22 over the..........what ever the fuck he was before Franklin...... Also can we get Mig-25/F-15 love/hate relation ship arc at somepoint? F-15; Sorry Raptor, but this old soviet warhorse is what drove me to become all i am......
Imma be real, the 25 and the 31 are the only two modern MiGs worth a damn. They are some of the very few military aircraft built by the USSR in its mid-latter years that were built with very specific and realistic goals in mind, and fulfilled them admirably. The MiG-25 was the USSR's 'roided out take on the ultra-fast, mass-produced, and cheap enough to be functionally disposable "local interceptor" concept. It's what the F-104 wishes it could have been, and, had Kennedy and North American not bungled the Valkyrie program into cancelation, the Foxbat would have been a very pertinent and competent aircraft. Even still, the MiG-25R (Foxbat-B and Foxbat-D) family was very effective, all things considered, and it was a fairly decent answer to the SR-71 Blackbird. In fact, looking at the sticker price, raw materials needed, and maintenance costs side-by-side, it becomes pretty damn impressive that a stainless steel Soviet bathtub was able to even come close to the (admittedly far sexier-looking) titanium UFO we produced. As for the Foxhound (MiG-31), it's probably the better comparison to our Eagle. Still optimized for top speed rather than pretty much anything else, but it's quite competent for a long-range interceptor, and I seem to recall that it is also apparently quite good at Wild Weasel missions. Such a shame that the cretins in mother Russia are wasting such a competent and useful bird on ASM-truck duties, especially considering that the Kinzhal (which, BTW, is not pronounced "kin-zahl"; the "zh" makes the same sound as a French "j", and the English-speaking media's pronunciation makes my native-Russian-speaker ears bleed a bit) is a unimpressive missile, at best, by every single possible metric. Note that I am not a Z-tard vatnik. I support Ukraine fully in this war. But I think it is both disingenuous and self-sabotaging to dismiss all ex-Soviet and Russian tech as fundamentally incompetent and useless. Yes there are far more examples of useless, overhyped systems like the Yak-38 and the Kinzhal than there are those like the MiG-31, but competency is not yet absent from the Russian roster (though it is rare and getting scarcer by the day).
The Kid still has his deranged bloodlust for intercepts don't you worry. Franklin has just been good at keeping him corralled. Now that he's on the run, there's no need for him to keep The Kid relaxed.

As for the Foxhound (MiG-31), it's probably the better comparison to our Eagle. Still optimized for top speed rather than pretty much anything else, but it's quite competent for a long-range interceptor, and I seem to recall that it is also apparently quite good at Wild Weasel missions. Such a shame that the cretins in mother Russia are wasting such a competent and useful bird on ASM-truck duties, especially considering that the Kinzhal (which, BTW, is not pronounced "kin-zahl"; the "zh" makes the same sound as a French "j", and the English-speaking media's pronunciation makes my native-Russian-speaker ears bleed a bit) is a unimpressive missile, at best, by every single possible metric.
Note that I am not a Z-tard vatnik. I support Ukraine fully in this war. But I think it is both disingenuous and self-sabotaging to dismiss all ex-Soviet and Russian tech as fundamentally incompetent and useless. Yes there are far more examples of useless, overhyped systems like the Yak-38 and the Kinzhal than there are those like the MiG-31, but competency is not yet absent from the Russian roster (though it is rare and getting scarcer by the day).

@@nibs7252 Bruh MIG 29 Fulcrum????!!!!
The Kid still has his deranged bloodlust for intercepts don't you worry. Franklin has just been good at keeping him corralled. Now that he's on the run, there's no need for him to keep The Kid relaxed.
Yaaaasss now if only you couldn't have a playlist of all the voice over videos, INCLUDING THE BOAT VIDS! from oldest to newest. Thanks HLC.
I'm 6min into this video and this is my favorite HLC vid ever!!!
PERFECT TIMING HLC. Just got my new 32" monitor today. If I didn't know better, I'd say you read my mind or hacked my pc and saw when it would be arriving, cause this looks great in 4k
Yeah, there’s no such thing as coincidence…
