+Spillone104 Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Hi. Sorry if I use english in Russian forum. I want ot ask if you have some information about the use of missiles of the Alkali serie as air to ground weapons as I've seen in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82wwRj5G0TI. Where at 1:30 min a Mig-21 fires 2 missile that seems K-5 at a ground target. So I was wondering about the use of these kind of missiles. Maybe modified to be used in training as a less expensive unit instead of Kh-66 or Kh-23??? Similar to that the US done with the AGM-12 Bullpup. As a training missile they used a 127mm rocket converted with the guidance sistem of the AGM-12. http://www.designation-systems.net/dusrm/m-12.html If someone could help me... Thanks. Alex Quote
nworm Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 (edited) Really, Spillone104. Russian historians V. Markovski and K. Perov in his russian-language monograph "Soviet Air-to-Air missiles" write: Missile RS-2US (Alkali) stay on arms MiG-21 and Su-9 fighters until early 1970s and after that use missile as air-to-surface weapon with guidance equipment switched-off and fixed control surfaces If you need I can upload this book.

Where is he??? 1) RS-1(K-5),RS-3U/US(K-51) is Beam rider missille, they can be guided on ANY radio-contrast Target, no matter, air or ground; 2) Using RS-2U/US as AG role is optional, no GOOD result observed, test resume was 'CEP not correspond Warhead weight' 3) Kh-66 is Scaled RS-2US,and 'CEP is correspond Warhead weight' can be used only with R-22 & RP-21M radar. 4) on early 70 scepial pod's developped for use Kh-66 on Any plane, not accepted, because Kh-23 was on wide production.
