Project 3: 1968 Chinese PLAAF "Delta MiG-25" project

Hi everybody,

found today on a French website, but the original source is on Reddit :

Is this project known to the SPF forumers (I couldn't find anything when searching the archives on the site.)?

Thanks Hesham.

Well, not new then...

With my source, we just learned that the project was canceled in 1971, due to a lack of suitable Chinese reactors...

For the moderators: maybe it's better to cancel this topic and to add only the Reddit link of my first post as an answer to the reply #75 of the link given by Hesham ?
