MiG-25PU, A Two-Seat Trainer Aircraft
Abandoned in the Khodynka AirDrome, Moscow, Russia, was this MiG-25PU Two-Seat Trainer aircraft. When the aircraft made its first flight, it happened to be in the midst of a Vietnam conflict. However, when American strategists recognized what was going on, they somehow felt like it would be a hit for the North Vietnamese regions. The Soviet Union has always been developing and manufacturing fighter jets, and the MiG-25PU was one of their projects. We can imagine how cool it must have been for pilots who operated this mini machine.

Themed Abandonment
From the look of things, it seems there is some sort of theme for many of these abandoned aircraft. This aircraft here is totally different from the Douglas C-47 that was previously mentioned on this list. So, what is the theme we are referring to? Since it has nothing to do with the C-47, we would like to highlight the fact that more than 10,000 of this unit was created during its prime. It seems like a trend that each unit that has a lot manufactured often sees some of them being abandoned in places like these, and probably, we might discover a few others sooner than we believe.
