Planes buried in the Iraqi sand.

I was browsing over at snope.com and came upon this. I wonder how much it would cost to get those planes functioning again.

So we can't find them? (almost) perfect hiding spot.

No I meant why would anyone want to restore them 🙂

You're telling me you wouldn't want one of those planes functional for your own use? You're nuts. 😀

No WMD?s, huh? Stand by!

Yeah, WMDs.....

Because of slow, left-lane drivers.

Hah honestly!

I'd take one, but I wouldn't pay for it, maybe Krassus wants in on the deal.

I'm pretty sure the guy meant that he believes that when they were burrying their fighter jets they were burrying other things as well. Seriously, who knows what's under the sand out there.

What we need to do is draft some of the black-socks-n-sandals crowd from down Florida way to scope out the Iraqi desert with the metal detectors. Those old timers would find the WMDs in a jiffy. 😀
 
Mig-25s did somewhere between Mach 2.5 and Mach 3. That's a pretty good reason.
yeah, mig-25 is one of the fastest fighters in the world I think. India is using them, and the pakistanis can't catch them
 
the MiG-25 Foxbat was designed as an interceptor to take down the SR-71. They have been tracked on radar going Mach 3.1 but the plane can only cruise at Mach 3+ for no longer than 2 to 3 minutes before the engines burn out. They have limited range and one of the worst turning radius' around. They are largely ineffective fighters.
