- When fired, fired aircraft has no RWR indicator of the incoming missile
- Very high overload (24G)
- Stunning explosive mass (20.8 kg of TNTeq)
- Can be slaved with IRST for faster target acquisition and target selection
Cons:
- Range, while decent, is not as much as some contemporary missiles
- Bleeds energy fairly quickly
- Can be easily decoyed with flares
History
Examine the history of the creation and combat usage of the weapon in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Weapon-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />.
Media
