Have Doughnut was the name of a Defense Intelligence Agency project whose purpose was to evaluate and exploit a MiG-21 "Fishbed-E" that the United States Air Force acquired in 1967 from Israel. Israel acquired the aircraft as the result of its Operation Diamond when, on August 16, 1966, Iraqi Air Force pilot Capt. Munir Redfa, in a defection pre-arranged by the Israeli Mossad intelligence agency, flew it to Israel during a training flight.

  • Have Doughnut was the name of a Defense Intelligence Agency project whose purpose was to evaluate and exploit a MiG-21 "Fishbed-E" that the United States Air Force acquired in 1967 from Israel. Israel acquired the aircraft as the result of its Operation Diamond when, on August 16, 1966, Iraqi Air Force pilot Capt. Munir Redfa, in a defection pre-arranged by the Israeli Mossad intelligence agency, flew it to Israel during a training flight. In this multi-service project, Air Force and United States Navy pilots evaluated the MiG-21, redesignated as the "YF-110", in a variety of situations. The project's name came from the "doughnut" shaped sight reticle on the F-4 Phantom's canopy used to aim at opposing aircraft. The inability of the Navy to disseminate the results of this highly classified project to combat pilots was part of the impetus to create the United States Navy Fighter Weapons School (TOPGUN). The HAVE DOUGHNUT tests were conducted at Groom Lake, commonly known by the public as "Area 51." A similar project occurred a year later known as HAVE DRILL, which used a MiG-17 Fresco acquired in the same manner. (en)
  • Le projet Have Doughnut (« avoir (un) donut/beignet ») était un programme secret du gouvernement américain pour tester des avions de chasse soviétiques acquis pour voir comment ceux-ci se comparaient aux avions américains. L'une de ces enquêtes pendant la guerre froide a été le test de la première génération d'avions de combat MiG dans la Zone 51. De janvier à avril 1968, les Israéliens ont prêté un Mikoyan-Gourevitch MiG-21 aux États-Unis, qu'ils avaient acquis en 1966. Israël a mis la main sur le MiG-21 avec l'aide de l'agence de renseignement israélien, le Mossad et du capitaine Mounir Redfa de l'armée de l'air irakienne, qui fit défection et posa son MiG sur une base aérienne dans le nord d'Israël lors de l'opération Diamond. Le nom du projet vient du réticule de visée en forme de donut sur la verrière du McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II utilisé pour viser les avions adverses. Dans la Marine américaine, les difficultés de diffusion des résultats de ce projet hautement classifié auprès des pilotes de combat a fait partie de l'impulsion pour créer l'United States Navy Fighter Weapons School (TOPGUN).
