This is the famous test were there was a bet that the missile will hit the left engine, to prove how accurate it is. The aircraft is Tu-16.

Can any one put out if there is any thing interesting in this video as its in Russian

Nothing new. Just some history about the missile and dates for launch tests.

It’s about time this thread to be locked down. Some of the posters have such anti-Russian attitude that no logic and arguments can stop them. They beat that with smilies.

The second image isn’t appearing. But the first one is pretty damn impressive, where’d you find that?

From the book i’m going to send you. 🙂 I attached just one image btw.

I have a book about Kapustin Yar. It’s full of photos from early days and lots of info. The book is in Russian and about 60MB. Let me know if you want it.

Onix’s diameter is over 650mm, around 700 mm

Shirokorad gives in his book 720mm.

IR Seeker generally works well only at low mach speed, but AIM-120 need to speed up to M4. The heat generated will interfere with the heat sensitive IR Seeker.

And R-27T goes over 4M so this is not true.
