But the Russian Mig-25 interceptor variant paved the way for the very successful and very good Reconnaissance variant (Mig25 'B' and 'R'), which also sustained Mach 3.2 for short periods...faster than the interceptor variant.
Its oblique cameras were and still are very good at the job they were designed for.

but then, the Mig31 Foxhound was then developed as a more manouevrable Mig-25 design incorporating a much advanced look down shoot down capability and more advanced weapons while still attaining a max cruise speed of Mach 2.8...

cheers
Richard
