Read an interesting thing about high performance planes in a biography of US pilot and air general John Boyd (now there's a unique guy!). Seems the SU-25 was fast as all get out - Mach 2.5 or thereabouts - but declassifeid docsuments now indicate that by the time it reached that speed it was out of fuel and the engine needed to be replaced. Hopefully this new generation of fighters are better. I'm sure the CF105 Avro Arrow would have still outclassed them all LOL!
