On September 6, 1976 Soviet pilot Viktor Belenko flew his MiG-25 to Japan and defected. This gave the Americans their first-hand look at the new aircraft that had become the nightmare of the USAF. After testing and disassembling it the United States returned the aircraft to the Soviets in 40 crates. With this technology now known to the Americans; the Soviet Union set about making improvements to the MiG-25. The MiG-25PD began service in 1979 with new engines and radar along with weapons systems upgrades. NATO labeled this variant the Foxbat-E.
