A fighter is longer than an ordinary fighter jet and three times heavier than Saab Gripen. Not impossible. And that was the Tupolev Tu-128, the largest intercept aircraft ever to strengthen the Soviet Air Force, Airway1 reported.

With a length of 30 meters and a maximum take-off weight of 43 tons. The large fighter plane created by Tupolev first flew in the early 1960s and was operated exclusively in the Soviet Air Force until the end of the Soviet Union's communist rule.
