That, and practically no MiG-29s still in service in 1990 would be equipped with the original N019, or if they were would be hard pressed to purchase a missile that just entered production and was still in limited numbers with the dying Soviet Union.

Anymore question!?!!!
Is this statement below correct guys ? Found it on a forum of Mig-Stuff but i need to make sure.
"The only different of 9-13S and 9-13 is the ability to use R-77 through N-019 9-13S radar since all of them use the same type of Radar or “equivilent” like they used for Vietnamese Su-27UBK and Chinese Su-27Sk (both of them uses N-001 radar), hardpoint for R-77 is AKU-170E. "
Theoritically, 9-12 should be able to use R-27ER with their own radar.
Yes as I’ve explained, a change in the booster section should not preclude the ability to use the ordnance from the N019 radar - which is what was used to qualify the seeker and missile platform in the first place.
Early testing of R-27ER was conducted with N019 radars.
Yeah, it’s a pretty big deal! Thats why the R-77 overshadows less dramatic upgrades like ECM was hardened and lesser missiles like the ER guide it. No 9-12 or 9-13 with a N019 Rubin guide the ER, sorry.
The fact remains, many sources from East & West outright state first & foremost, the N019M Topaz Radar was development because of an American Spy & and testing of the radar commenced the year the Phazotron’s Cheif Designer was going to trial for his crimes against the Soviet Union & his countrymen.
Sorry, Facts do not care about how you feel. History does not either.
You really do not know much about your Mig history either, you never knew 9-13S were left to Ukraine in the Dissolution? I got more airframes with their manufacturer serial numbers if you care to see?
Have a nice day.
There is no need to be spiteful, please address the question… What did they modify on the R-27ER so that N019 could no longer guide the same seeker?
Already explained just read.
The R-27R and ER share everything but the motor section … so I ask again… what changed? The radars can change that’s fine… what is different between R and ER that precludes guidance of the ER from the earlier radar?
Explained just read.
Yeah! Adolf Tolkachev admitted to the KGB that he gave the Americans everything on it, the Radar & the R27 the same year the ER was in testing.
You think they were dumb enough to move forward all honky dory, sunshine & Rainbows? Still deploy the ER in 1990 with no alterations in its guidance whatsoever across the multiple main channel X-band frequencies that guide it?
lol. Oh, boy do I got a bridge to sell you.
No
Ukraine never never.I didn’t have it at 9-13C
Do you know people on internet are very often wrong? 9-13S tests ended only nearly right before USSR fall.
Production of the N019M was in full swing 1991. The collapse of the Soviet Union took place December 1991.
The Mig29S (9-13S) is the last fighter ever produced & upgraded by the Soviet Union.
Do you people not know history?
You are not going to outdo me on the Soviet Mig29 timeline or Soviet aviation history in general. So do not even try it.
Hope you are having a nice day though.
Yup, the Mig29 is known to carry weapons.
Cool thanks.
Yes the Mig29 is known to carry the ER & ET too lol.
Provided it has the right radar for the ER! lol.
This gonna cost me 1/2 of my brain.
Is this thing R-27ER ? R-27ER has RED nose so maybe this thing is. This mounted on East German Air Force’s Mig-29 since you can clealy see the symbol of them.
MiG-29 with “right” radar has ability to use R-77. Where are they??
