Russian super-maneuverable Su-35 fighters armed with hypersonic air-to-air missiles. Thanks to this, the aircraft will be able to destroy targets within a radius of more than 200 km in a matter of seconds.

We are talking about the R-37M missiles. Izvestia was told about them by sources in the military-industrial complex. While the Su-35 conduct test flights with new weapons. By the end of the year they want to conduct test launches.

Experts say that missiles will significantly increase the combat capabilities of fighters. Su-35 will be able to hit AWACS aircraft, bombers, tactical aircraft. One fighter can carry from two to four R-37Ms. It is alleged that these missiles are superior to modern and promising models of American ammunition "air-to-air" AIM-120.

It is worth noting that earlier the R-37M was equipped with other Russian fifth-generation fighters Su-57.
