Six different kinds of AAMs on the Flanker? What is that, the AA-10,
AA-11, AA-12 and what AA-8? What are the other 2? R-37 was
cancelled, That air to air Krypton looking thing is a paper design
AFAIK and the AAA-AE or whatever that two stage long range missile was
has never entered service either.
Flanker AAMs: R-27, R-40, R-60, R-73A, R-77, and KS-172.
KS-172 is a paper missile. No Flanker of any sort carries the R-40
(Do you know which one that is?) Come to think of it I've never seen
a picture of a Flanker carrying an R-40 nor read that it's armament
for the Flanker.
Flanker ASMs: Kh-25ML, Kh-25MP, Kh-29, KH-31, KH-59, KH-65S.
Flanker LGBs: GBU-500, GBU-1500, plus TV guided versions.
Flanker AR: KH-15P
