Re: R-27 AAM




Whoa!   :eek:


I agree with everything else above, but - 60 Hz?!?  From a carrier frequency of 10 GHz?  So if the target changes its closing speed by as little as, e.g. 10 km/h, the missile can't see it?!


This could help explain why Russian radar AAMs never seemed to hit very much in all of human history - but I nevertheless think I simply misunderstood something.  Does R-27R have a similar Doppler gate?  Interesting source of information, whatever it is.
