Contents
Description
Write an introduction to the article in 2-3 small paragraphs. Briefly tell us about the history of the development and combat using the weaponry and also about its features. Compile a list of air, ground, or naval vehicles that feature this weapon system in the game.
Vehicles equipped with this weapon
General info
Tell us about the tactical and technical characteristics of the missile.
Effective damage
Describe the type of damage produced by this type of missile (high explosive, splash damage, etc)
Comparison with analogues
Give a comparative description of missiles that have firepower equal to this weapon.
Usage in battles
The R-60MK is a dedicated AAM. It is used to lock on to and fire at targets where others may not be able to, thus giving it the advantage. The optimal location to use the missile is within 1.5km - 2km behind the target. it is recommended to stay above the target and only to dip down when firing the missile. this allows you to have the optimal firing range with the minimum detection possibility, as most targets will only check directly around them in a 360 degree circle at their height. however, this missile is easily distracted by flares, so it is best used against jets that have little to no flares.
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Higher G-Tolerance compared to the earlier R-13M1 and R-3S (30G)
- Activates and accelerates quickly from the time of launch
- Uncaged seeker makes it easier for the missile to detect a target
- All-aspect ability allows the missile to get a lock at any angle with the target
Cons:
- Easily distracted by flares
- Relatively shorter range compared to other missiles such as the R-13M1, R-3R, R-23T, and the AIM family with the exception of the AIM9-B
- Extremely low explosive mass (1.35 kg)
- Low range for all-aspect ability minimizes the window of time to lock and launch the missile in a head-on engagement.
History
Examine the history of the creation and combat usage of the weapon in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Weapon-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />.
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
See also
Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example:
- reference to the article about the variant of the weapon;
- references to approximate analogues by other nations and research trees.
External links
Paste links to sources and external resources, such as:
- topic on the official game forum;
- other literature.
