As part of a training flight, a combat vehicle hit an aircraft of a fictional enemy. According to Lenta.ru, according to legend, he entered the airspace of Russia to collect intelligence.

By order of the management, the crews of the MiG-31BM found “a simulated enemy without engaging ground-based air defense systems, successfully capturing an air target” and hit it with an electronic launch of a long-range missile. “

Recall that a little earlier, information appeared on the network about Russia’s plans to use the MiG-31 to intercept ballistic missiles. At the same time, insiders from the Ministry of Defense said that interceptor fighters would protect the Northern Sea Route.
