Some of the comments following the pictures are priceless.

This is a MIG-25, the fastest fighter ever..mainly used for reconnaissance by soviets and its allies during the cold war days. It is almost impossible to shoot it down with a missile, because it can fly faster than any cruise missile during its times.

And the point of this thread is.. what, exactly? Hardly topical is it, or have we finally found those elusive weapons of mass deception (sorry, destruction).

Spectre 150

Since when did anything on Prune have to be topical?!
It might not be new, or even interesting, but it is at least aviation related!
Just carry on with the therapy and it'll all be just fine!

I don't know where that airframe went, but another one (different serials) found in the sand berms is undergoing work for display at the USAF National Museum, Dayton.
