this is radar control, not missile seeker
SEAM uses the Radar training angle to corelate the Seeker of a Sidewinder / MRM. It’s effectively the same thing for many aircraft.
Effectively but not quite, AWG-12B was modified to support this;
Please add what OP said to the SU39 and raise it to 13.0 so that we don’t see these ever again lmao.
R-77 would be perfect match for the Su-39, a close range missile for a close range plane.
fox 3 missile in 12.0? really?

So, with Hawk 200 getting Skyflashes at 11.3, can we cope that Su-39 will also get R-27Rs?

Viggen C has had Skyflash at the same BR for years. Not sure what you really think the Hawk 200 would change. Though the Su39 is probably still stronger than the Hawk 200
Because both are subsonic, and focused more around CAS than air to air platforms mostly. Seems logical that if we can get one at 11.3 then we can get another one as well.
To be fair su39 has actual working engines while the hawk 200 is powered by windblowers. And it has r73s over the 9l of the hawk
but only 2 of them while Hawk can get 4 alongside Skyflashes. Sure Su-39 has also R-60Ms… for what it’s worth… Anyways in general i think it would be only fair to give Su-39 armament that it supposed to have considering that we are getting similarly armed platforms. I ain’t advocating R-77s those would definitely send poor Su-39 to something like 12.3 or even 12.7 but R-27R should be fine imo.
