Čaj Mikoyan MiG-31 (на језику: енглески) Микоян МиГ-31; Ime za izveštavanje NATO-a: Foxhound) je supersonični presretač aviona koji su razvile sovjetske vazdušne snage. Letelicu je projektovao mikojanski dizajnerski biro kao zamenu za raniji MiG-25 "Foksbat"; MiG-31 se zasniva i deli elemente dizajna sa MiG-25. MiG-31 ima razliku da je među najbržim borbenim avionima na svetu. Njime i dalje upravljaju rusko vazduhoplovstvo i vazduhoplovne snage Kazahstana po okončanju Hladnog rata i propasti Sovjetskog Saveza 1991. Ministarstvo odbrane Rusije očekuje da će MiG-31 ostati u službi do 2030. ili šire, a potvrđeno je 2020. godine kada je stiglo obaveštenje da će produžiti rok trajanja usluge sa 2.500 na 3.500 sati na postojećim avionima.

General Characteristics
The Mikoyan MiG-31 (NATO reporting name: Foxhound) is a Soviet/Russian supersonic interceptor aircraft designed to replace the earlier MiG-25 Foxbat. It was developed to defend vast Soviet airspace, particularly against cruise missiles and low-flying intruders. The MiG-31 is a highly unique aircraft, being one of the few jets in the world capable of achieving speeds near Mach 3 while carrying a heavy missile load. Its most significant feature is its advanced Zaslon S-800 phased array radar, making it the first fighter platform in the world to employ such a radar system. The aircraft operates in pairs or groups, with four MiG-31s capable of controlling an 800–900 km (500–560 mi) front line. It remains one of Russia’s primary long-range interceptors, with upgraded variants like the MiG-31BM still in service.

Powerplant and Performance
- Engine: 2 x Soloviev D-30F6 afterburning turbofan engines.
- Max Thrust (per engine, w/ afterburner): 152.0 kN (34,170 lbf).
- Maximum Speed (High Altitude): Mach 2.83 (3,000 km/h or 1,860 mph). (Limited to Mach 2.35 by most modern operational parameters for engine longevity).
- Maximum Speed (Low Altitude): Mach 1.23.
- Service Ceiling: 20,600 m (67,600 ft).
- Combat Radius (Subsonic): 720 km (450 mi).
- Ferry Range: 3,300 km (2,050 mi) with two drop tanks.
- Design Note: The MiG-31 is built with a greater proportion of steel and titanium (approx. 50% steel, 33% aluminum, 16% titanium) than its predecessor to better sustain high speeds.
Armament and Sensors
- Internal Gun: 1 x 23 mm GSh-6-23 six-barrel rotary cannon (260 rounds) (removed in later modernization efforts like the MiG-31BM).
- Hardpoints: 8 total (4 semi-recessed under the fuselage for R-33/37 missiles, 4 under-wing).
- Key Armament:
- Primary Missile: R-33/AA-9 Amos (long-range radar-guided missile, range up to 160 km in earlier versions).
- Upgraded Missile (MiG-31BM): R-37/RVV-BD (extra long-range AAM, cited range up to 400 km).
- Short/Medium Range Missiles: R-40, R-60, R-73, and R-77.
- Kinzhal Missile: MiG-31K variants are modified to carry the Kh-47M2 Kinzhal air-launched hypersonic ballistic missile.
- Key Sensor: Zaslon S-800 Phased Array Radar (PANDA)
- Range: Can detect targets up to 200 km (124 mi) away (MiG-31B) and track up to 10 targets simultaneously, engaging 4 of them.
- MiG-31BM upgrades: Feature the Zaslon-M radar with an increased detection range of 320 km and the ability to track 24 targets, engaging 8 simultaneously.
