Russian version sparrow really exist, his name is K-25 (R-25). In 1967 some A-7E was captured in N Vietnam, missiles were transfered to USSR, and in 1972-1974 Soviet AF succesfuly testing R-25 on MIG-23, but R-25 was back-up for R-23 project. And R-23 get more good accuracy and CM rejection, it was be cause R-23 use monoimpulse scaning. Russian military specialist also say, what R-23 more good to AIM-7F, and only AIM-7M/P was more good that R-23 with Noise/CM rejection.

Cool, I didnt know that.

TRY IT! model same that aim-7e, but mass and Length not, seeker 100% copy from US-analog.

R-3R mean SAHM version of R-3 missile -like AIM-9C. It had been used on some MiG-21/23

[SayethWhaaaa 245]

Ummm... How was an A-7 captured with Aim-7s loaded? They couldn't use them. The air to air ability didn't go past the Aim-9 capability.

[WarlordATF 1]

Depends on if they Captured just the A-7E, or maybe they got a few Phantoms also. I didnt realize the Soviets captured any US aircraft intact during Vietnam, but i guess you learn something new everyday. Now i gotta try to google it and see what it says LOL!

[Wraith27 6]

I think they found one which not explode or some debriss...

I know detals of aim-7e capture : One Phantom was shoot down near Hayfon, and get enmergency landing on water, deep is small, then all aim-7 where captured whitout serious damage...

P.S. Sorry, i write 'a-7e' whitout 'aim-7e' in last post.

S'all good. I know after Vietnam the Soviets got their hands on a whole bunch of US equipment. Mostly aircraft like A-1 Skyraiders, F-5A/Bs, AC-47 and mostly whatever was in the South's inventory at the time. But they also scored quite a bit of booty when the Shah was overthrown too...

No. This is an R-3R, radar guided short range air to air.

Sure of this?

Because from what I've heard, the subsequent republic and the Soviets were not very good friend. Far from it...

 

But I can be wrong.

[JediMaster 451]

No, they weren't. However, in the early days before things really solidified there's the likelihood they at least were around to examine some of it.

Does anyone know if there's a model of this missile in any of the latest weapons packs?

[eraser_tr 29]

That's where Russia got a tomcat from. I'm quite surprised they didn't carbon copy either her or the F-4 like with the missiles and Tu-4

[Wrench 9,856]

The radar Atoll is in both weapons paks

 

IIRC, the 21PF is set to use 2 IR and 2 SAHM Atolls in it's loadout ini. Double check the loadouts threads in the KB.

Thanks bud. The reason I was asking is because up to now the SAHM Atoll BMPs were represented by the IR model

bitmaps

Sorry, but MiG-21PF Can't Use R-3R, this missile start in service in september 1967, first plane who can use it was MiG-21S, later it was use on SM,SMT etc.

PF, FL, M modifications can use R-2US BEAM RIDER ONLY, PFM planned to use R-3R but, creation this missile was so long and PFM fly whithout R-3R.
