Air interdiction in MC

[Steel God]

I don't know...since the games are set in 1985, either by design or coincidence, you're looking at an era when US/NATO Air Supremacy was pretty much a sure thing. A decade later, no, by then Soviet Air Industry was producing aircraft comparable to Western aircraft, but not quite in 1985. Back then their front line fighters were predominately Mig-23s and older models I believe.
