רוסיה מפתחת טיל אויר/אויר חדש עבור מטוסי הדור החמישי, הטיל נקרא K-77M והוא משוגר בשיטת "שגר ושכח".

Russia is finalizing an advanced air engagement system combining “fire-and-forget” guidance and “single-shot kill” ability within a single air-to-air missile. The system aims to frustrate any missile evasion maneuvers enabling a target to escape

The major innovation of the K-77M air-to-air missile is its guidance system, based on an active phased array antenna (APAA) of its own, Izvestia daily reports. With APAA onboard, the missile has zero reaction time to unexpected evolutions of the target, which means that once it locks on an aircraft, it would hit it no matter what aerial acrobatics the target would perform to shake off the inbound killer missile.

An active phased array antenna consists of a large number of cone-shaped cells installed under a transparent-to-radio-waves cap on the nose of the missile. Each cell receives only a part of the signal, but once digitally processed, the information from all cells is summarized into a “full picture,” enabling the K-77M missile to immediately respond to sharp turns of the target, making interception practically inevitable.

זה טיל א"א? אתה בטוח? זה נראה כמו חימוש א"ק דווקא, בגלל "חלות הדבש" שבד"כ ראיתי רק על חימוש א"ק...

אכן זה לא מקובל לראות את "חלת הדבש", כפי שאתה קורא לזה, על טיל אויר/אויר אבל נראה שמשפחת הטילים R-77 בנוייה בצורה הזו, ואין לי הסבר לזה.

Grid fins have a much shorter "chord" (the distance between leading and trailing edge of the surface) than planar fins, as they are effectively a group of short fins mounted parallel to one another. Their reduced chord reduces the amount of torque exerted on the steering mechanism by high-speed airflow, allowing for the use of smaller fin actuators, and a smaller tail assembly overall. Their small chord also makes them less prone to stall at high angles of attack, allowing for tighter turns.
