spo-15 and r-37m combo is so funny

yeah lmao, but i have seen some BMs with some white L-150 looking antenna on its wingtips so it might be possible some have it, there is also this document i have seen mentioning L-150 for the BM. But i dont know the origin of it so i cant really verify it tbh

which 31BM version would this be?

sorry to tell you thi but all you see in the image that you sent is fake.
mig31 never had kh31, even worse when its in the belly. only mig31m is know for this.
also kh59 on the belly pylons ? yeah no its def a fake.

what i thought too, is there an offical armaments list thang anywhere. for the BM at least

well i am not the right person to ask for this so just hope someone know in this area respond to you.

It’s for the prototype/pre production BM, they were supposed to have ground attack capability but the project was halted.

But when MiG had the funds to continue the BM project a few years later the ground attack capability was scrapped

This would’ve been for MiG-31BM izd.01/MiG-31F, the MiG-31BM that exists these days cannot utilize such weaponry.

Also just a lot of things on that listing are fake…

It’s for the prototype/pre production BM, they were supposed to have ground attack capability but the project was halted.

Curse you Nikitin…

For once MiG didn’t cancel a program over financial concerns lol…

The BM prototypes did

The MiG-31M was a pure interceptor with no ground-attack capability

figured such.


although Rosoboronexport says it can, but i will give you that it doesnt even mention the variant.
the Website is from 2025, so having stuff for 20+ year old prototypes wouldn’t make Sense, would it

“so having stuff for 20+ year old prototypes wouldn’t make Sense, would it”

Except when they mention “Kopyo” on the in the bottom bunch of text, a radar that was solely exported to India on MiG-21UPG… and offered on MiG-21-93… a 30 year old modernization prototype… Or Su-39, yet another ~25 year old prototype for export that was never exported.

But it simply wouldn’t make sense, would it.

it uses the radars as an example though. also gonna say that is says armor-piercing warhead, for the kh-31A. but but
