Russia's MiG-41 Intercepter Jet Could Just Do The Impossible
Показать описание
Russia’s ambitious new ‘sixth-generation’ stealth interceptor, the PAK-DP long-range bomber, is reportedly in its development phase.
Being a successor to the prolific Soviet MiG-31 interceptor, there are high expectations from PAK-DP, also called the MiG-41.
The country’s fleet of MiG-31 fighter jets is due to retire by 2028.
The paper goes on to explain the concept – “after a hypersonic projectile is detected by Russia’s ground radars or early warning network, the MiG-41 will launch the interceptor missile at long range.
The MiG-41, whenever it’s ready, will remain Russia’s main interceptor well into the 2030s.
