The first flight of the MiG-31 prototype was in September 1975, and the new fighter broke a number of time-to-altitude records. Production began in 1979. [[NATO]] had heard of the Foxhound from a defecting Russian pilot, but the West got its first good look in 1985, when Foxhounds based on the Kola Peninsula were met by [[Norway|Norwegian]] fighters when they came close to that country’s air space. The MiG-31 looked like a two seat MiG-25 with larger engines and an internal gun.
