This 50 minute YouTube video gives the Russian POV on the fighter/interceptor race from the Mig 15 on through the 90’s. It’s 50 minutes long, but if you’re a military or aircraft enthusiast, it’s worth the time to watch it. Great flight footage.
It’s really quite interesting, and explains why they felt they were superior to western aircraft at every stage of the race for air superiority. They do make many good points. Perhaps we weren’t as invulnerable as we thought back then.
Enjoy.
