“If the SR-71 had violated Soviet airspace,
a live missile launch would have been carried out.

There was practically no chance that the aircraft could avoid an R-33,”
Major Mikhail Myagkiy, retired Soviet MiG-31 pilot

So, 16 minutes after the alert, and then it takes another 5 mins to be st the SR-71’s altitude... That Blackbird was not going to be harmed, I guess.

The speed of an R-33 missile beats that of an SR71.....
