MiG cost?

Out of curiosity, about how much would an old MiG-25 cost? Or where could I find a place that lists such prices?

You mean if you wanted to buy one? Probably 15 million USD or so.

Unless they catch you, in which case you die as a spy.

Or you can hire someone else to steal it.

Or you could just buy it, greatly simplifying the whole process, allowing for the question of spares easily and many other things. Hiring people to steal the thing, combined with shipment costs would probably add up to more then just buying one. And Russia would sell you one, while I dont think its around anymore for years they had an open offer to sell a MiG-29 to anyone who wanted one for 20 million.

while you're at it you might as well shell out a few more millions for nukes

Try Trade a Plane. I doubt there will be any Foxbats listed right now, but this would be a good starting place to track one down. As to the cost, it can vary by an extremely large margin based on things such as age of the airframe, age of the engines, installed equipment, location, etc.
