Depending on your definition of "current" the MiG-25 can fly at up to Mach 3.2 (at risk of damage to the airframe) and even though it was introduced in the 70s

Depending on your definition of "current" the MiG-25 can fly at up to Mach 3.2 (at risk of damage to the airframe) and even though it was introduced in the 70s is still in service.
- aurailious 8y agoWiki says only Libya, Syria, and Algeria operate it currently. I am skeptical it has flown above Mach 3 in decades.
- vonmoltke 8y agoThat's because the Soviet/Russian Air Force upgraded to the MiG-31 in the late 80s. The 31 has the same performance envelope as the 25.
