Effective damage
The high-explosive mass usually destroys any aircraft if hit directly. It is hard to dodge as well, since it is very fast, thus the target has very little time to react.
Comparison with analogues
- R-27R - Predecessor of the R-27ER with less range and speed.
Usage in battles
Since the missile is a long-range BVR weapon, it is best used in a range of 20-50 km. Before firing the missile off, the player should also climb to a higher altitude than the target and exceed Mach 1, as this will provide the missile more speed when being fired.
Pros and cons
Pros:
- High top speed
- Ability to relock a target after firing and losing lock
- High overload
- Large explosive mass
Cons:
- Unable to be fired in TWS Radar mode
- Targeted aircraft will have a RWR notification
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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: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 />.
