Description

The Vympel Kh-29 (GRAU: 9M721; NATO: AS-14 Kedge) is a Soviet air-to-surface missile designed for use against larger battlefield targets and infrastructure. It is a heavy-duty Soviet air-to-ground missile, born from a similar fuselage design of the Molniya R-60, a laser seeker inherited from the Kh-25, and a powerful warhead. It features impressive range and destruction capabilities against a variety of surface targets, giving pilots a heavy-duty weapon capable of decimating anything in their path.
