Indian Air Force test fired Russian air-to-air missile destroying Banshee UAV target

Yeah, all they do is work properly and our pilots don’t have to fake radar issues or fuel levels to bug out of theatre
Is that part of that emergency help dispatched by allies of Bharat post-27 Feb?

In the first indication that Russian missiles are being used by India's primary warplanes, including the Su-30MKI and Mirage 2000, the Indian Air Force has started user trials of next generation air-to-air missiles manufactured by Vympel, a subsidiary of Russia's consolidated JSC Tactical Missiles Corporation.

New Delhi (Sputnik): The Indian Air Force (IAF) began user trials of extended-range, Russian-made air-to-air missiles on Wednesday. On the first day, the IAF test fired the air-to-air missile from a Sukhoi-30 MKI combat aircraft; it destroyed a UK-made Banshee drone off the coast of Odisha.

“The aircraft that took off from Kalaikunda air base in West Bengal (state) fired the beyond-visual-range air-to-air missile after taking several sorties,” local media reported without identifying the missile.

It was reported earlier that the IAF had asked to be able to immediately purchase the air-to-air missiles and guided missiles after the mid-February escalation along the western border.

The nation's stockpile dipped due to an increased number of combat air patrol missions along the border with Pakistan, involving its main fighters, such as the Su-30MKI, MiG-29, and Mirage 2000.

The missiles that it has been testing at the eastern base are RVV-MD short-range missiles, RVV-SD medium-range missiles, and RVV-BD beyond visual range missiles - the next generation of Vympel’s air-to-air missiles.

Vympel is the manufacturer of the R-73 air-to-air missile, which was used by IAF pilot Abhinandan Varthaman to shoot down a Pakistan Air Force F-16 on 27 February when the two countries engaged in an aerial clash.

The RVV-BD missile weighs 500-kg and features a 60-kg warhead. During the endgame, it is capable of 8g manoeuvring, flying at Mach 6. The RVV-MD is ab export version of the R-74, which has increased anti-jamming protection, including optical jamming.

Earlier, it was reported that the Indian Air Force intended to replace the Su-30 MKI's current close combat missile — the Russian-built Vympel R-73 — with the European ASRAAM heat-seeking close combat air-to-air missile in phases.

During February air dogfights, IAF learns our capability. We may see in the next dog fight are they learn more after loaded with 60KG warhead inaccuracy/fusing problems. We are stay tuned of next episode of Cloud Theory 2.0 vs Spice-2000 vs RVVD-?. The whole world is going in the standardization of weapons, any food of thoughts in IAF about this strategy or keep training boys on multiple platforms. This time we don't offer you tea, Dollar is expensive, BYOT(bring your own Tea). Or if we stop export our pink Salt to you and directly sell to your clients right from source then maybe we can offer you tea. but wait Fawad CH is got under Indian lobby influenced and thrash the idea of not to export pink salt to India. so in next time, air dog fight we have new policy no dollar no tea offer to IAF pilots.
