Foxbat

 


In the 1970s, an upset Soviet fighter pilot was going through a bad time in life- so he decided to steal a MIG-25 Foxbat, which was still being developed in secret.
Once he had taken off from the runway, he made it to a neutral civilian airport with just very little fuel and asked for political asylum in exchange for the jet.
