COLD WAR FIGHTER PLANE

peret

Both sides that participated in the Cold War also produced an amazing array of jet-powered fighter aircraft. The earliest jet fighters were adaptations of World War II aircraft: the Lockheed P- 80 Shooting Star was the first jet used by the U.S. Air Force; the McDonnell FH-1 Phantom was the U.S. Navy抯 first jet fighter; and the North American FJ- 1 Fury was the first fighter to see combat during the Korean War.

The Fury inspired the F-86 Sabre, the favourite of USAF pilots confronting MiG-15s in the air over Korea. American pilots discovered the disadvantages of fighter air combat conducted far from home base (something the British had demonstrated during the Battle of Britain) when most engagements with the MiGs took place in an area near the North Korean border known as MiG Alley.

In 1953 a new crop of fighters appeared: North American improved on its Sabre formula to produce the F-1OO Super Sabre. Britain produced the Convair F-102 Delta Dagger and the Fl 06 Delta Dart. These sparred occasionally with the chief Soviet fighter of the period, the MiG-19.  The art of fighter design reached a high point in the 1960s with the building of the McDonnell Douglas F4H Phantom, one of the most versatile fighter- bombers produced by the United States since World War II, and the Dessault Mirage III, a fighter the French sold to everyone, making it a main component of fifteen of the world抯 air forces.

The Vietnam era produced yet a fresher crop of fighters, now with 揅oke bottle

The same technology梐 combination of material science and electronics梩hat created the Stealth Bomber was used to create the Stealth Fighter, the F-Il7A, an airplane first delivered in secret in 1983, but which proved itself during the American invasion of Panama and during the Gulf War, when it used laser-guided missiles to knock out Iraqi targets.


McDonnell-Douglas F-15 Eagle

An aircraft developed by the British and adopted by the American Air Force, but which the Soviets were hard pressed to duplicate, is the Hawker-Siddeley Harrier, a jet fighter that allows the thrust to be directed downward so that the plane can hover or take off vertically.

MiG-25, despite looking sleek and dangerous, is actually crap, especially compared to the F-15.

F-15 was ranked as the best and the finest jet fighter in the world in terms of combat capability and its longservice...

Apa yang saya tahu,Mig-25 sebenarnya dicipta untuk memintas peluru berpandu,di mana kelajuannya hampir mencecah mach 3.

Bukan peluru berpandu tapi pesawat pengebom XB-70 Valkyrie. Walaupun Valkyrie dibatalkan, Foxbat tetap diteruskan.
